Matthew Hawkins is a founder and CEO with 11+ years in software who turned a long-running hobby into Tracker Network, a gaming analytics platform that now tracks over 200 million players and serves 5 million+ registered users. He leads a tight team of ~10 engineers building stats sites, mobile apps, browser extensions, and Discord bots, combining product intuition from a gamer’s perspective with hands-on technical leadership. Before focusing full-time on Tracker Network he spent nearly a decade as a senior software developer, giving him deep engineering chops across web and backend systems. Based in Kansas City, he also advises gaming startup ADVANCEDgg, bringing practical scaling and product guidance. Notably, Tracker Network began as a passion project for six years, reflecting his commitment to hobbyist-driven innovation even as it scaled to a major industry resource.
