Summary
Čech Josef is a Senior Software Engineer with 14 years of experience building and operating scalable backend systems, currently designing solutions and integrating LLMs at Accolade. He began as a PHP/MySQL freelancer and evolved into a microservices and cloud-native specialist, delivering systems in Java, .NET and Python and deploying with Docker, Kubernetes and AWS. His background spans enterprise-grade travel platforms and serverless architectures underpinned by DynamoDB and other NoSQL stores, with hands-on DevOps experience from Barclays. Trained in computational linguistics (Charles University), he brings a genuine interest in NLP, large-scale data processing and automation that informs both architecture and implementation choices. Josef prefers end-to-end ownership—from first lines of code through testing to production—and mentors junior engineers while remaining eager to learn from more senior peers. An engineer who combines pragmatic delivery with research-minded curiosity, he often seeks novel solutions to hard data and language problems.
