Hi, my name is

Kryštof Prášil

I build systems that work

Senior backend engineer with 6+ years of experience. I focus on building clean APIs and applications, optimizing performance, and designing reliable data solutions.

About Me

I'm currently studying Web Engineering at FIT CTU in Prague while working as a full-time contractor. My journey into backend development started with PHP, and it remains my primary language to this day.

Most of my work revolves around the Symfony ecosystem, but I have solid experience with Laravel and Nette as well. I enjoy working with databases—PostgreSQL and MySQL are my go-to choices.

Recently, I've been expanding my horizons with Go and Swift. I'm excited about building performant backend services and exploring mobile development.
