  • Josef Hajas, Senior Engineering Manager, shares his insights on our thriving Prague office. 🇨🇿 A decade ago, the Czech team had just 15 engineers pioneering innovations like HTTP/3. Today, it's a 30-strong team. His passion for reliability and data-driven decision-making fuels progress. Beyond the tech, Josef highlights the strong team culture. During Danny Lewin Community Care Days, the team built a shelter for a therapeutic horse farm, combining collaboration and giving back to the community. 💡 Josef's advice: "Don't hesitate to apply for a role that matches your skills. Akamai offers exciting challenges, global impact, and a supportive culture for growth and innovation." Ready to join an environment where innovation and collaboration thrive?
