Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJack Kwakman is a pragmatic engineering leader with 10+ years of experience building data-driven web platforms and advertising integrations, now serving as Team Lead Data & Insights at Abovo Maxlead. He combines deep PHP and backend expertise (Symfony, Laravel, Doctrine) with practical skills across Python, Go, frontend frameworks and search platforms like Elasticsearch and Solr. Jack has a strong ad-tech pedigree—designing RTB and API integrations for Google DBM, Analytics, AdWords, MediaMath and more—and a Google I/O Extended hackathon winner for AMP/PWA work. He’s equally comfortable leading teams and getting hands-on with databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB), testing, CI tools and version control. Based in North Holland, he pairs formal software engineering training with real-world product delivery dating back to early 2000s agency work. A detail that often surprises collaborators: beyond ad-tech he’s built diverse clients including Samsung TV apps and TV/radio fingerprinting and media sync systems.
