Hello dear stranger!

It seems you have an interesting job offer for me, and I directed you here. It's a fortunate coincidence, as I'm currently seeking new opportunities!

I appreciate your interest in me as a candidate. I value your time as much as I value my own, so let's make the most of it. I receive a great number of messages on LinkedIn, almost all of which are irrelevant. To streamline this process, I've created this introduction.

My name is Yuri, and I'm a Web Developer with more than 10 years of experience in the field.

Previously, I worked as a:

• Developer at Matrix Requirements GmbH: I contributed to building a modern UI library, introduced React microfrontends, and led the adoption of a monorepo structure, driving efficiency and scalability in a compliance-driven environment.

• Engineering Manager and Tech Lead at LiveScore: I built and scaled a high-performing team, established robust development processes, and led the successful transformation of the website, resulting in a significantly faster and more engaging platform for millions of users.

• Tech Lead at Oak's Lab: I guided cross-functional teams to deliver impactful web and mobile projects, ensuring high-quality outputs and on-time delivery. My leadership extended to strategic technical decision-making and mentoring.

• Developer at Kiwi.com: I contributed to the development of one of the first open GraphQL APIs in the Czech Republic and drove the adoption of TypeScript, improving code quality and developer efficiency across internal projects.

All I expect you to do is to meet only a few criteria before you're going to contact me and offer a new role:

• Your tech stack align with my expertise in JavaScript. I am proficient in React.js, while my backends typically employ a powerful Node.js + GraphQL combo. I'm also proficient in REST and gRPC APIs. Naturally, all my projects are built with TypeScript. Additionally, I'm comfortable with various cloud platforms and languages like Python and Go.

• Your organization is dedicated to building and evolving its own products, not an outsourcing agency. I'm seeking a role where I can have a meaningful, long-term impact on product development.

• The company has the capability to operate seamlessly in a fully remote environment. As working across various countries and time zones becomes increasingly prevalent, I am eager to contribute my expertise in establishing an async-first culture.

• My usual daily rate starts at 500 EUR (12k CZK) or 125,000 EUR/year. I operate under a Czech entity, which allows for flexible B2B arrangements — this is my preferred way of collaboration.

• (optional) At this stage in my career, I'm seeking roles that combine hands-on development with technical leadership, such as Tech Lead or Engineering Manager positions. I find great satisfaction in balancing coding with guiding and mentoring teams.

• (optional) Your company values the integration of AI and LLMs in work processes, recognizing their potential to enhance productivity and innovation.

• (optional) I'm a passionate supporter of the Open Source philosophy, and I'm looking for a job and colleagues who share my enthusiasm. I look forward to collaborating on Open Source projects and contributing to the community together!

Checked every point above carefully and you are pretty sure that I'm the guy and you are that 1%? Please drop me an email at yuri@nezdemkovski.com or book a quick call in my Calendar.

P.S. These are the technologies I use on a daily basis (mmm, buzzwords): JavaScript, TypeScript, React.js, Node.js, Next.js, Styled-components, Tailwind, Apollo Client/Urql, GraphQL, GraphQL Code Generator, SQL/NoSQL databases, Prisma, AWS, Supabase, Google Cloud.

Cheers,

Yuri Nezdemkovski
