Top SchoolEric Mizell is a seasoned technology leader with over 25 years of experience who currently serves as Field CTO and VP of Field Engineering at Keyfactor, focusing on secure digital identity for complex enterprise and IoT environments.

Eric transitioned into solution architecture for NoSQL and big data, spent multiple years on Hadoop, then pivoted to GPU-accelerated databases and DevOps before embracing security and identity at scale. He combines deep hands-on engineering chops with field leadership, hiring and training global teams and turning experimental prototypes into production-ready architectures. Based in Apex, NC, he brings a rare blend of low-level systems experience and customer-facing solution design that helps organizations make high-volume, high-speed data both reliable and secure.
