Tomáš V is a pragmatic software engineer with 13 years of cross-domain experience spanning embedded C, Linux, cloud-native infrastructure and SRE practices. Currently at Canonical, he works on Ubuntu, clouds, containers and Kubernetes, while his open-source contributions include improving CI/CD, Docker workflows and logging for the RChain blockchain project. He has a strong background in embedded systems from years at Kontron and hands-on SRE work for blockchain and wallet projects, which gives him a rare blend of low-level systems insight and production infrastructure skills. Based in Czechia, he pairs a formal education in intelligent systems and cybernetics with a take-responsibility ethos—“when things don’t work, it’s my fault”—and a quietly persistent focus on making complex systems reliably work.
