🎓
Top School
Sebastien Bock is a data-science and engineering leader with nine years of experience building and scaling programmatic advertising platforms and teams, currently leading a 50+ person organization at Amazon focused on DSP auction dynamics and RTB optimizations. A two-time Rakuten executive and co-founder of Nextperf (acquired by Rakuten), he has driven platforms that process billions of bid requests daily and initiatives that delivered $100M+ incremental ad revenue annually. He blends hands-on engineering (contributing to open-source projects and full-stack mod development) with product strategy, data science R&D and large-scale data engineering across DSP, SSP and DMP products. Comfortable managing distributed, multicultural teams, he pairs entrepreneurial grit with enterprise-scale execution from Palo Alto and holds engineering and MBA credentials. An atypical detail: he has applied his dev skills to niche open-source hobby projects, improving scripting, UI and configuration systems in the MechJeb2 KSP mod.
