ABOUT

Hi, I'm Norbert.

AI engineer & digital solutions architect with 15+ years of experience. I design, build, and ship end-to-end.

I built my first website when I was 12 — for my Counter-Strike clan, using PHP Fusion. It was terrible. But I was hooked.

17 years later, I've evolved through every layer of digital. Graphic design and branding taught me to think visually. UX/UI design taught me to think about people. Full-stack development taught me to think in systems. And AI engineering taught me to think about what's possible next.

Today I'm a Digital Solutions Architect. What that means: you come with a problem — you leave with a working solution. I design the architecture, create the UI, write the code, and deploy it. One contact point, zero middlemen.

Principles

How I work

01

Ship working software, not decks.

Strategy matters, but code in production matters more. I design, build, and deploy — no handoffs, no gaps.

02

One person, full ownership.

You get one contact point from first call to launch. No middlemen, no account managers, no blame loops.

03

Simplicity wins.

The best architecture is the one you can maintain at 2am. I reach for the simplest thing that works, every time.

04

Honest assessment, always.

If your project doesn't need custom code, I'll tell you. If it's the wrong fit, I'll say so. Time is everyone's scarcest resource.

Beyond work

Off the keyboard

Kitchen

Experimenting with spices from around the world. Currently obsessed with Sichuan peppercorns and Levantine za'atar.

Gym

Strength training, mostly. Clears the head better than any meditation app I've tried.

Reading

Systems thinking, architecture, essays on craft. Favorites: Christopher Alexander, Bret Victor, John Gall.

Travel

Slow trips across Europe. Roaming Slovak mountains when I'm home in Prešov.

Got a problem worth solving?

I reply within 24 hours with an honest assessment.
