About Michal

I help companies replace manual processes with AI-driven systems that generate leads, reduce costs and scale reliably in production.

Experience & Stability 🛡️

With 18+ years of experience - including a 13-year ongoing tenure with a major Swiss client —-I specialize in translating complex business logic into high-performance, resilient systems. I manage the entire lifecycle, from architectural design to mission-critical deployment.

Tech Focus ⚙️

My focus is on backend development (Laravel, PHP, APIs) and system design. I leverage the Cloudflare ecosystem (Workers, R2, Pages) and modern AI tools to build high-concurrency architectures that are both fast and cost-efficient.

Project Scope 🏗️

I typically work on backend-heavy web platforms, SaaS products, automation pipelines, and systems that need to scale and perform under real-world load.

Fast, pragmatic, and outcome-driven - I care about systems that work in production, not just prototypes.

  • Uniplex AG
    Full Stack Developer / AI Systems Engineer
    DIGITAL AND IT
    September 2013 - Today (12 years and 9 months)
    Zürich, Switzerland
    I help companies automate and scale their digital operations through AI-driven systems, backend development and data-driven automation.

    I design and build production-ready systems that replace manual work with reliable, automated processes - from backend architecture to deployment and scaling.

    My core focus is building systems that generate measurable business value:

    • Programmatic SEO systems that create organic traffic and leads at scale
    • AI-powered automation workflows using LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic), n8n and custom APIs
    • Backend systems for SaaS products, platforms and internal tools
    • Automated content and video generation systems using AI

    I work end-to-end — from system design and architecture through implementation, deployment and optimization in production environments.

    My approach is pragmatic and outcome-driven: I focus on building systems that work reliably in production, reduce manual effort, and directly improve business efficiency and growth.

    Tech stack includes: Laravel, PHP, Vue.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, AWS, Docker, Linux and modern AI/LLM APIs.
