Kurt Jung is Senior Manager, Product Marketing at Progress with 11 years of documented experience and a long career blending hands-on systems engineering with product strategy. He brings deep technical expertise in planning, migrating and hardening Microsoft environments—Active Directory, Exchange (5.5–2013) including DAG HA/DR, Lync, SharePoint and Office 365 hybrid/SSO topologies—backed by extensive Microsoft and networking certifications (MCSE, Azure specialist, CCNA). At Progress he evolved from technical marketing and solution engineering into product leadership, consistently translating complex infrastructure requirements into market-facing solutions. Unusually for a product-focused leader, he remains an active engineer: contributing to the gofpdf open-source PDF generator by adding font encodings and drawing routines, which underscores his continued hands-on coding ability. Based in Holly, Michigan, he combines operational credibility with go-to-market fluency to drive adoption of infrastructure and cloud products.
