About

I design scalable automation solutions and lead test strategy across engineering teams. As a horizontal lead I focus on making testing a sustainable part of the product rather than a one-off crutch.

I have worked in test automation professionally for over ten years — from mobile apps for a bookmaker, through a digital bank, to AI platforms running on HPC infrastructure.

Four stops, one through-line: moving quality from the end of the process to its start.

Beyond work

What I do when I'm not writing tests.

3D printing

Original Prusa, mostly practical things — brackets, enclosures, spare parts you can't buy.

Electronics & IoT

Smart devices, sensors and home automation. Preferably running locally, without the cloud.

SKARTUJU.CZ

Technical support for a document shredding company — website, computers, operations.

Let's talk

Email is the fastest way to reach me. I answer on LinkedIn too, just slower.
