Bio
Marcs Wilkinson
Petr's the sort of hardworking and driven designer every dream team needs. Never one to sit by and wait for things to happen, you could count on Petr to chase down requirements, plan the meetings to move things forward, and break down complex solutions into actionable and prioritised steps. Through an endless rhythm of iteration, exploration and execution, Petr has left a lasting contribution on the product experience, design system, and team spirit here. When I became a team lead for the first time, Petr continued to make my job easier by coming to meetings with a list of topics, asking for the right feedback, ready to listen. The result: he constantly improved the quality of his contributions, it just kept getting better. Another asset: his great intuition for what's worth spending time and energy on, and what can be decided and acted upon quickly - a great asset to busy teams, helping to put the needs of the user and design in focus for his collaborators. As a person Petr is open, engaging and sharp. He askes great questions, give good feedback, and showed up for his fellow designers - open, sharing and caring. A funny thing is, he has a good sense of humor! Paired with an unshakeable and easygoing attitude makes for easy partnerships and a great fellow to work alongside through high times and lows.
