Board of Directors
Faraz A. Syed, CEO & Co-Founder
Recognizing a need in the rapidly growing mobile industry to provide the first truly affordable mobility quality management service, Faraz founded Keynote DeviceAnywhere™ in April 2003. Faraz spearheaded Keynote DeviceAnywhere's evolution from being a technology provider for testing to its role today as a comprehensive mobile testing, monitoring, and quality management environment. Today Keynote DeviceAnywhere is one of the fastest growing mobile start-up companies in Silicon Valley, serving more than 2000 enterprises around the world.
Prior to launching Keynote DeviceAnywhere, Faraz was the Director of Solutions at Brience, a mobile WAP applications company, and a Technical Architect at KPMG Consulting. While employed with Brience, he experienced the difficulty and expense required to develop new mobile applications when teams often had to travel abroad to set up testing labs and independently purchase new handsets. The challenge facing the industry presented Faraz with the vision for founding Keynote DeviceAnywhere. Faraz has also held technical positions at Oracle, KLA Tencor and AMD. He holds a MS in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University and a BS in Electrical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin. He is also the lead singer for a local rock band, Kaif.
