Fullstack developer & consultant

Fullstack · Consultant Eight years shipping production software — including enterprise CMS platforms on Strapi.

I build resilient, well-considered web products — from first architecture sketch to the commit that ships. Clean interfaces, quiet infrastructure, engineering you can actually hand over.

01 / About Index

Consultant helping teams build clean, durable software.

Hi, I'm Martin — a consultant based in Brno. I spent eight years as a fullstack engineer working on everything from mid-sized apps to large-scale platforms: fintech backends, healthcare portals, internal tooling for distributed teams, and the occasional greenfield product.

That hands-on background is what I bring to consulting. I know where the skeletons hide — in legacy migrations, compounding tech debt, documentation that doesn't survive the original author, and the boring decisions that either free a team or quietly slow it down.

I work best as a long-term technical partner — someone who asks the harder questions and still understands the code. If you're between hires, scoping a rebuild, or need a second opinion on architecture, that's where I can help.

02 / Principles How I work

Opinionated, not precious.

I. — Clarity

Say the quiet parts out loud.

Most engineering problems are communication problems wearing a costume. I write things down, name the trade-offs, and make disagreement cheap.

II. — Craft

Boring technology, by choice.

I default to proven tools and small diffs. Novelty is a cost; I spend it where it creates real leverage, not where it looks good in a tech-talk.

III. — Care

Code that reads like a letter.

The team that inherits this will read it more than I ever wrote it. I optimise for the third engineer on the file, not the first.

IV. — Leverage

AI as a sharp tool, not a shortcut.

I use LLMs and copilots daily — for drafts, refactors, scaffolding, review. The judgement, the architecture and the final commit are still mine. Speed with a paper trail.
