Summary
Petr Hanák is a pragmatic CTO and engineering leader with 11 years of experience turning complex ideas into production-grade products across web, mobile, embedded and cloud. He has repeatedly built and scaled teams (over 20 engineers) and processes that deliver ~90% of new requirements on time while keeping cost estimates within single-digit error margins. Technically hands-on, he designs architectures spanning legacy integrations, low-level hardware protocols, low-latency messaging and video streaming, and has led migrations from monoliths to microservices on Kubernetes. Comfortable in B2B sales conversations as well as in-depth code reviews, he bridges product, customers and engineering to keep releases predictable and auditable. Notably, he led a nationwide rollout of a distributed parcel/luggage system integrated with Czech Post and maintained uninterrupted delivery during multi-team cloud migrations. Based in Prague, he combines data-driven decision making with a culture-first approach that scores high in team satisfaction.
