Roles in the Team

Each member of our team has a unique role: From design and development to testing and maintenance. We work together to ensure that our EPIQA software is not only powerful and efficient, but also reliable and easy to use.

Tailored Solutions

Our experts always build the EPIQA solution tailored precisely to your needs. Only by working in this way can we ensure the maximum possible efficiency and added value for your business.

    Ondřej Harcuba

    Senior Architect

    A senior software architect and developer who was involved in the inception and overall development of EPIQA.

    He has extensive experience in designing the architecture of complex software solutions and systems, including integration and orchestration layers, as well as designing and setting up the appropriate tech stack with regard to future operation in on-prem or cloud environments.

    „The architecture of EPIQA is flexible and scalable for solving large-scale tasks for demanding clients such as AIRBUS.

    Our solution extends the functionalities of traditional commercial ERP systems. EPIQA can be easily integrated with them through established unified interfaces.

    We are currently working on a general cloud version for smaller manufacturing companies.“
