Kye Burchard

Hey! I'm Kye.

I'm working on Falconer, the next generation of knowledge tooling for engineers.

Before that, I was a staff engineer at Stripe, running a high-throughput service with an SLO of 99.9999% uptime and building their v2 API platform for building scalable, performant, and reliable REST and GraphQL APIs.

Previously, I led the Logistics team for a 1500 person hackathon (HackMIT), served as treasurer, then president, then tech chair of Maseeh Hall (MIT's largest dorm), interned at Microsoft and Stripe, and worked as an undergrad researcher at the MIT Media Lab.

I love being outdoors whenever I can find time — whether that means skiing at Arapahoe Basin, gravel bikepacking along the California coastline, backpacking the John Muir Trail, exploring wherever I happen to be at the moment, or just finding a spot outside to walk or chill with a good book or podcast.
