Summary
Joost Schuur is a Technical Product Manager with 13+ years of experience shaping online gaming middleware and platform integrations, currently leading product at PlanetPlay after a long tenure building developer-facing services at PlayMob and GameSpy/IGN. He blends hands-on engineering roots with product strategy—having moved from software engineering and developer relations into product roles focused on matchmaking, in-game commerce, and SDK licensing. Based in Herrenberg, Germany, Joost is comfortable translating market and customer feedback into SDKs and services that scale for publishers and studios. A self-described "distracted developer" who enjoys JavaScript and space, he brings a pragmatic curiosity that surfaces useful, developer-friendly solutions often missed by purely business-focused managers.
