About me

I've worked as a software architect and tech lead for 10+ years. I build systems that run for years in production — from gas nomination workflows to an AI phone assistant to a hosting platform serving dozens of businesses. I adapt the technology (PHP, Go, TypeScript, Kotlin) to the problem — the language is a tool, an effective solution is the goal.

In the past, I served as an external technical partner for various companies. Now, I am looking for a full-time challenge — a CTO or Tech Lead role where I can fully own the tech strategy, build systems, and lead and mentor the team. I leverage AI tools (Claude ClI, Cursor, OpenCode, Conductor, Jean etc.) daily to drastically speed up and streamline development.

Alongside my primary roles, I've delivered 20+ projects since 2014 as a software developer and consultant for small and mid-sized companies — business process automation, modernization of existing systems, and full-lifecycle project delivery. For 2+ years, I've focused on integrating AI into business processes — voice AI (Zvednu.cz), AI data extraction (CoolLetenky.cz), and LLM-powered automation. I started my career with backend development at Collectora software (PHP, Oracle) and infrastructure testing at Foxconn CZ.
