Available to hire
Hi, I’m Petr Malik, a seasoned software developer with over a decade of experience specializing in backend system architecture and cloud-native application development. I’ve worked extensively with Golang, Python, and various cloud platforms like AWS, GCP, and Azure, building scalable and event-driven systems. I also enjoy contributing to open-source projects and collaborating with international teams to deliver robust and efficient solutions.
Throughout my career, I’ve led software development initiatives, designed automation frameworks, and implemented infrastructure deployment automation. When I’m not coding, I like to work on personal projects that explore AI language models and dive logging applications. Currently, I’m looking forward to new challenges and opportunities where I can contribute my skills and continue to learn and grow.
