Michael Parks joined LMNTL-AI as Chief Technology Officer in early 2024, bringing a career built across two of the most demanding environments in systems engineering — the US defense and intelligence community, and the enterprise networking infrastructure that underpins modern technology operations. Parks completed undergraduate studies in Computer Engineering at Georgia Tech before earning dual Master of Science degrees in Computer Engineering and Electrical Engineering at Stanford. His early career at Booz Allen Hamilton placed him in defense and intelligence community systems integration. He subsequently joined Meraki as a senior engineering leader, became CTO, and navigated the company through its 2012 acquisition by Cisco. As Chief Technology Officer, Parks owns classical engineering and product systems across LMNTL-AI's full technology stack.
