Daniel Havelka
I could say I went through it all. Accumulating 10+ years of experience starting with data analytics in banking industry, moving to back-end development, then becoming tech lead for a small team, then climbing all the way to the IT infrastructure director, later working as a CTO, then switching to DX lead, project management, later agile transformation lead & change manager, and most recently program manager at a global innovation company.
I acquired very broad area of expertise combined with strong technical acumen, and now I am enjoying & leveraging this, as it allows me to properly connect with any type of stakeholder, from engineer to C-level executive, or manage any kind of team and effectively collaborate on a solution.
