Keith Bourgoin

Keith has been with Parse.ly since 2011 and seen it grow from a five-person startup to what it is today. He's gone from backend engineer to VP Engineering and then CTO, helping build our core processing systems along the way.

Keith studied Computer Science at Case Western Reserve University, where he got his Master's degree with a focus in machine learning and information retrieval. He started writing .Net software in Philadelphia but soon went back to his roots, moving up to Boston and going back to Python.

Keith helps maintain Parse.ly open source software, such as PyKafka, Streamparse, and the Parse.ly Android SDK. In his spare time he enjoys a good cup of tea and reading about history.
