Who am I?

Tarkan Burmali

At Hantec Group I built the global marketing function from a blank page across LATAM, APAC and North Africa, working directly with the board and owning deposits, CAC, LTV, ROAS and the budget.

Before that I led marketing across 20+ markets at Kindred Group, now FDJ United, and headed brand and marketing at Entain. I still build: I work in Claude Code daily and ship the systems behind the work, not just the campaigns.
