Did you do "make install"? If you didn't you need to do that.

The "make install" command will install Jack in the /usr/local tree.
You then need to check that pkg-config can find jack:

    pkg-config --modversion jack

If that fails, you might need to do:

    export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig

The "pkg-config --modversion jack" should then print the jack version
and you will be ready to configure timemachine.

HTH,
Erik
