Bio
Adam Kloboučník
Petr is definitely a developer highly skilled in various programming languages and environments but what makes him really special is his intense passion and energy which he is able to put in building a product. He is able to cross the purely technical boundary, think about the product in broader scope and bring in new ideas valuable to customers. Working with him in the same team for almost two years was very positive, once-in-a-lifetime experience.
