Top SchoolDavid Polák is a Staff Engineer based in Prague with a decade-plus track record of full-stack and platform engineering across finance and enterprise software.

David has progressed from building research and simulation front-ends (React, WebAssembly) to leading platform engineering at Ataccama, bringing practical experience in GCP, ArgoCD and Docker. His background spans both systems administration and application development, giving him a rare ability to bridge infrastructure and product teams. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic architectural decisions and for shipping complex integrations under operational constraints.
