Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolChris Baclig is a pragmatic, hands-on CTO with over a decade of experience turning early-stage product ideas into resilient, production-grade systems for adtech and publisher platforms. He has led engineering teams through rapid iterations at companies like Spaceback, Rembrand, Rubicon Project and iSocket, emphasizing solid fundamentals, automated testing, CI, and loosely coupled architectures that survive shifting business needs. Equally comfortable writing core platform code as he is setting technical direction, he has repeatedly moved teams from prototypes to scalable offerings that handle significant transaction volume. Based in Los Angeles and grounded in a Stanford CS education, he thrives in fast-paced environments where learning fast—often by failing fast—is part of the product playbook. A team-focused leader, he prioritizes giving context to partners over issuing orders, and his background in building a consumer-facing startup and programmatic advertising APIs reveals a blend of entrepreneurial instincts and systems-level engineering.
