Dave Teare

Founder

Dave Teare is a co-founder of AgileBits alongside Roustem Karimov, Natalia Karimov, and Sara Teare. When he started 1Password in 2005, freedom from commuting and being able to spend more time with family were at the forefront of his mind. 

He’s incredibly proud of the environment he’s helped create since those startup days – one that allows ideas to blossom and grow into successful products and processes. This culture encourages the implementation of new and better ideas so 1Password is always working toward a better future.

Dave is also committed to a flexible approach to the customer experience. It allows the team to be inventive with how they delight 1Password users. Dave’s happy place is working with customers one-on-one to understand their needs and then creating solutions, whether that means teaching them about existing features or writing a new line of code to make improvements.

When he’s not being a jack of all trades at 1Password or hanging out on X (formerly Twitter), Dave loves to relax with his kids, friends, and family in Ontario, Canada, while playing board and card games, or catching them all with Pokémon Go.
