Summary
Jan Fait is a pragmatic Head of Data Product with 11 years of experience building B2B sales and marketing intelligence products from ETL to production APIs. Based in Prague, he leads a team that operates complex Data-as-a-Service pipelines across 100+ sources and multiple markets, balancing product ownership with hands-on coding in Python, SQL and Azure data tools. He excels at turning messy, cross-system data into reliable, commercial-grade data products and orchestration (Airflow/Prefect) while supervising analytics, search, and ML-backed features. Former roles in analytics and research give him a strong measurement mindset and the ability to communicate technical trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders. Notably, he still finds time to write code and instrument systems himself, keeping architectural decisions grounded in practical implementation experience.
