I'm an engineering leader and product-minded engineer. I bootstrap new domains inside growing companies and take them end to end — architecture, code, product decisions, and the people who deliver them.
My experience runs from early-stage startup work — I joined NFCtron just after its seed round, and it grew into a company doing over a billion CZK in annual turnover — to leading engineering inside a logistics unicorn. Some of it meant sleeping in the office for weeks before a launch; more of it, lately, means setting direction, unblocking a team, and making the calls that decide whether the code was worth writing.
At ShipMonk I lead the engineering for the B2B fulfillment domain. The work I'm proudest of is a warehouse-management-system migration: integrating an acquired operation whose processes lived only in people's heads, holding customers through a year-long bridged state, and landing them on the full platform without breaking their experience. It was as much process discovery and stakeholder alignment as it was engineering — which is exactly the kind of problem I look for.
My through-line: closing the gap between product and engineering, and building effectively with AI — and that's where I want to keep working.
I studied Open Informatics at CTU FEE (BSc and MSc, both with honours). The degree gave me the foundations — mathematics, computer architecture, software architecture — but most of what I do I learned by building, and from a lot of mistakes along the way.
On the tools: PHP (Symfony) and TypeScript (Nest.js) day to day, SQL underneath, and Rust for systems work — with Python, Docker, Kubernetes, Java, and C/C++ all in reach. The specific stack matters less to me than the problem; I pick up whatever it needs.
