Welcome
What I do
I am web developer with 10+ years of experience. I am detail-oriented and dedicated to deliver excellent results.
I aim to create scalable systems of reusable and testable components written in clean code.
I work remotely from the heart of Europe.
I prefer ambitious projects and deep work (see great book by Cal Newport).
Often I start some small side project to explore some technology or idea which interests me.
Also I organize evening sessions of Ecstatic Dance in my home town, together with DJ Guy Barrington.
I am interested in personal growth and achieving my potential. I thrive.

The most complext project I have on so far, very bright team. I help to develop digitalization of legislature of the Czech Republic's government.
There is no public website, as the project is used internally by the government.
I was handling two projects at the same time. One was greenfield project in Angular 7 focusing on managing AI projects.
The goal was to set guidelines and review the outputs of AI projects. Find hidden biases in data, test with syntethic data, test models robustness etc.
The other project was managing cloud based BI applications, lot of legacy code.
Developing Front-end for crypto-currency exchange https://nakamotox.com.
I created highly configurable widgets for crypto exchange dashboard. Widgets for graphs, alerts, semi-automated trading configuration, user management etc.
