Multi-application food delivery ecosystem — customer app, restaurant/admin portal, courier app and backend infrastructure. Built and operated end-to-end at Mazatech.

Nov 2024 – Present

  • RoleLead Full-Stack Engineer
  • DomainFood Delivery
  • StackVue, React Native, .NET, SignalR, Azure

What the system does

A connected ecosystem of four applications that together run the operational workflow of a food delivery service:

  • Customer app — ordering, payments, live order tracking.
  • Restaurant / admin portal — order management, user administration, accounting, courier payouts, invoicing.
  • Courier app — assignment, navigation, status updates, location streaming.
  • Backend — REST API, realtime layer, integrations, scheduled jobs, deployments.

My role

Lead Full-Stack engineer responsible for backend systems, frontend architecture, realtime infrastructure, deployments and technical decisions. Worked directly with the client on feature planning and coordinated development across junior developers.

Challenges & Key areas

  • Realtime synchronization between customer, restaurant and courier applications
  • Keeping operational workflows reliable during live traffic and order spikes
  • Czech-specific integrations. GoPay, Moneta, ARES and GoSMS instead of the usual global SDKs, each with their own conventions and edge cases.

Integrations

  • GoPay — payment gate
  • Moneta — banking
  • GoSMS — SMS gate
  • ARES — business registry lookup
  • Mapy API — routing, distance, courier tracking
  • Bluetooth thermal printers
  • Apple Store Connect & Google Play Console — releases

Innogy RPM

Enterprise React/TypeScript retail portfolio manager for Innogy — a major European energy provider, built at Trask.

Feb 2026 – Present

  • RoleFrontend Developer
  • DomainMulti-commodity energy retail
  • StackReact, TypeScript, Orval, TanStack

What the system does

A large-scale portfolio manager used by an energy retailer to track commodity contracts, positions and customer-facing portfolios across multiple commodities. Heavy on data tables, forms and cross-application synchronization.

My contribution

Working on frontend features inside a larger React/TypeScript codebase built around generated API clients and shared backend contracts. Collaboration across multiple teams requires coordination between frontend, backend and release workflows.
Most of the day-to-day work revolves around complex forms, data-heavy interfaces and keeping server state synchronized across the application.

Notes

Enterprise development shifts the focus away from framework choices and more toward long-term maintainability, review processes and coordination across teams and services.
