Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndres Tack is a product management leader with 17 years of hands-on engineering and R&D leadership, currently heading B2G Rides and Bolt for Business at Bolt from Tallinn. He combines deep backend and communications expertise—shaped at Skype, Twilio, and Glia—with a track record of shipping real-time media, messaging, and contact-center platforms at scale. Andres excels at turning ambiguity into clear missions, enabling teams to self-direct while he removes complexity and manages interdependencies. He doubled Conversations API MAU to 36M at Twilio and led native media and secure messaging rebuilds at Glia, showing both growth and technical re-architecture chops. An American-born Estonian, he contributes practical API and integration work (notably updates to Twilio API snippets and MQTT quickstarts) and prefers meetings that move outcomes rather than ritual. He blends engineering credibility with product rigor to deliver measurable business results.
