Ondrej Svinčiak
@ondrejsvinciak
Creative technologist specializing in AI-driven content production and web operations.
What I'm looking for
I'm a creative generalist with hands-on startup experience across the full content pipeline — from AI image generation and concept art to voiceover production, video, and website management.
At Glass Umbrella (2025–2026) I handled AI visual content for social media, game concept art, and web operations independently using Midjourney, Claude Code, GitLab, WebStorm, and ElevenLabs. Beyond the creative and technical work, I also trained and onboarded colleagues on AI tools — breaking down complex workflows into practical, accessible skills for non-technical team members. I'm comfortable in a terminal, in a design tool, and in a creative brief — often all in the same day.
Before going fully remote I spent 10 years living and working in Austria, which is where my fluent German comes from. I'm originally from Slovakia, and I speak English, German, Slovak and Czech fluently — useful for European companies who need someone who can communicate across markets.
I'm deeply interested in open-source technology, local AI infrastructure, and self-hosted alternatives to big cloud services. I learn fast, work independently, and thrive in small teams where ownership and initiative matter.
Currently travelling as a digital nomad, as of now I am in Rishikesh, India. Available across EU and Asian time zones.
