Košice, Slovakia · open to interesting work

Erik Lakifull-stack,devops, AI,automation.

I love making ideas become real products. Full-stack developer in Košice - React, Vue and Go from the form field down to the database, AI where it genuinely saves someone an afternoon, and enough pipeline work behind it that shipping is never the scary part.

This page is laid out like an application - scroll down and you descend its stack.

Two and a half years at Syntax building internal web applications and the pipelines behind them, alongside an MSc at the Technical University of Košice and an exchange semester in Linz. Most of the side projects here started because something annoyed me enough to build the fix.
