About Me

print("hello world")

I’m Jakub Kriz, currently building cloud infrastructure in Prague, with a track record of developing scalable Python systems across international teams. My experience ranges from rapid feature development at Copenhagen startups to enterprise-grade infrastructure serving global customers—whether that’s processing streaming social media data, managing high-throughput distributed systems, or creating tools that manage thousands of VMs simultaneously. This blog captures the lessons learned from real production systems and the engineering challenges that come with them.
