About

Precision built on engineering

I hold an engineering degree in Wireless Communication from the Czech Technical University in Prague. My career has always revolved around a single question: “Does this actually work the way it should?”

Today, I ask that question of AI systems. At PwC I lead quality evaluation of AI models — testing reliability, response correctness, edge cases, bias patterns, and safety properties of large language models deployed in enterprise contexts.

Alongside my work at PwC, I founded ITADA and co-founded BudeHub, bringing the same discipline of structured quality thinking into product development.
