David Kershaw is a founder and enterprise systems architect with over a decade of hands-on experience designing governance and automation for Fortune 100 organizations. He combines principal engineering pedigree from Ping Identity and product-facing integration work at Salesforce with independent consulting across retail, SaaS, and marketing operations. Now leading Tekmera, he focuses on making automation auditable and adaptive—translating complex identity and integration needs into governable systems. With a Master's in Computer Science (AI) from Dalhousie and a background rooted in pragmatic engineering, he excels at bridging technical architecture, compliance, and operational workflows. A subtle strength is his blend of research-informed AI training and real-world federation/identity experience, which helps him anticipate failure modes before they hit production.
