Hey! I’m Tomáš Šedovič (IPA pronunciation: /tɒmɑːʃ ʃɛdɒvɪtʃ/ or: TOM-aah-sh SHED-of-itch, but the anglicised spelling of "Tomas Sedovic" and whatever pronunciation you’re comfortable is absolutely okay!). This place links most of my activities around the web.
I am a techy person living in the Czech Republic. Very much interested in Free / Libre / Open Source software and how these concepts can be applied to other fields such as culture, media or research.
Hobbies and interests: rock climbing, game development, music, astronomy & cosmology, reading (mostly fiction).
I’m serving the Rust project as a program manager helping to improve processes, connect people and let them focus on building the language and its ecosystem. Basically, anything that’s needed to make sure the project is moving along. I’m also a co-lead of the Project Goals team. I’m employed by the Rust Foundation.
Previously, I worked at Akamai as an engineering manager and oversaw the development of their LKE Enterprise product (managed enterprise-grade Kubernetes offering) from the initial kick-off through the beta and early access to the first launch.
Before that, I’ve spent 13 years at Red Hat and I have worked on various projects there, such as: TripleO (OpenStack’s installer and cluster management tool) and the integration of OpenShift / OKD (Red Hat’s distribution of Kubernetes) with OpenStack.
I’m always happy to chat about potential offers. You can see my code, projects and contact details on this page.
I am only interested in fully remote positions (though I am open to relocation). Strongly prefer working with Open Source communities and distributed teams.
