Software Engineer who blends DevOps, back-end, and AI-assisted development.
CzechiaWhat I'm looking for
I work as a Software Engineer at Česká spořitelna, covering the full software engineering spectrum—testing (manual and automated), analysis, and development. I’m currently growing most in DevOps and back-end development, while working with AI to build faster and more thoughtfully “with AI in the loop,” using Claude Code daily.
I also bring a strong quality and UX mindset: I’ve delivered QA automation in Playwright and UI test automation with Robot Framework, Appium, and Jenkins, and I’m finishing a UX/UI programme focused on how people actually use a product. I enjoy translating stakeholder needs into practical engineering outcomes—reliable releases, clear test planning, and maintainable systems.
