Summary
Keith Tenzer is a Sr. Staff Solutions Architect with over 30 years of enterprise software experience across engineering, product, and sales roles at companies like Intuit, NetApp, Red Hat, and Temporal. He combines deep hands-on coding and open-source stewardship with strategic customer-facing work—specializing in application modernization, distributed systems, cloud platforms, and emergent agentic AI architectures.
