Readable systems
I like software that stays understandable after the first rush of shipping. Clear boundaries and sensible trade-offs matter more than cleverness.
Prague, Czechia
Software engineer in Prague. Building useful things.
This is my small corner of the internet. I’ve spent the last decade building web applications and backend systems across finance, aviation, commerce, and analytics. These days I’m at Workday, working mostly with Kotlin, Spring, and security-sensitive product engineering.
- Currently at Workday
- Usually working with Java, Kotlin, and Spring
- Interested in software design, security, and keeping systems understandable
Approach
A few things I tend to care about.
Security without drama
Security is important, but I prefer it as part of normal engineering work instead of a performance. Good habits beat loud language.
Staying close to the product
I enjoy understanding why something exists, who it is for, and which compromises are actually worth making before writing much code.

The simplest way to reach me is still email.
This site is intentionally minimal for now. If you want to say hello, email is best. LinkedIn works too.
