Background

About David Keefe

I'm a visually impaired Senior Platform Architect on the Developer Success team at Vercel. I combine a background in full‑stack web development and team leadership with a focus on building inclusive, high‑performing environments where curiosity and collaboration thrive. In my current role I partner with enterprise customers to shape technical strategy, optimize performance and scalability, and ensure long‑term success with modern web architectures. I bridge hands‑on engineering and strategic planning — helping teams adopt best practices, remove blockers, and align technical solutions with business goals. Before moving into developer success, I worked in frontend e‑commerce using TypeScript, React, Next.js, and Tailwind CSS. I deliver maintainable solutions for complex problems, always keeping user experience and performance front of mind. Outside of work you’ll probably find me at punk and hardcore shows, cheering on the Toronto Blue Jays or Raptors, hunting down great food and craft beer, or hanging out with my wife and our goofy dog, Bruno.
