Ken Jack, Chief Developer

Background:

I first started working as a contractor for McCormick and Associates developing TL2000 software for the transportation industry in 1993. After being hired as an employee, I quickly became the systems analyst in charge of rating and billing, vehicle maintenance, and fuel tax. Later, I would be in charge of EDI interfaces and an expert in operations as Lead Developer. In addition to TL2000, I began developing Innovative Computing Corporation’s IES software in 2016 after both software systems were purchased by Trimble Transportation, where I specialized in operations, EDI, and accounting. I left Trimble in 2022, and later formed Copilot.
