CV / AI Systems / Platform Engineering

Bruno ล kvorc

Senior engineer and technical educator focused on AI-integrated systems, data pipelines, platform engineering, and turning messy ideas into production software that survives contact with reality.

I have spent 15+ years building production systems, developer platforms, content systems, and high-throughput data pipelines. Right now my work sits at the intersection of product engineering, infrastructure ownership, and AI-assisted development: LLM-driven workflows, agent tooling, deterministic rendering, event indexing, and shipping features end to end without turning the stack into a science project.

Experience

Platform Engineer and AI Systems Builder

Bitfalls d.o.o. (Independent)
Jan 2026 โ€“ Present
  • Architect and ship production applications with integrated AI capabilities across monitoring, docs tooling, desktop apps, and automated content and ops pipelines.
  • Build agent-based workflows using LLM APIs for code generation, QA checklists, release drafting, prototyping, and internal automation.
  • Built Kvasyr, a high-throughput Rust event indexer processing millions of events daily, and a deterministic rendering pipeline for composable NFTs - both originally developed for RMRK infrastructure.
  • Reduced RMRK operational costs by 10x by replacing brittle third-party dependencies with owned services and cleaner API boundaries.
  • Ship full-stack features across API, UI, storage, deployment, and monitoring layers, usually with Bun or TypeScript tooling around Rust services.
  • Current product focus includes Kvasyr, Ogmadocs, RMRK Stack, Bitfalls Apps, x402watch, and commercial macOS utilities.

Developer Experience Engineer

Polygon Technology
May 2024 โ€“ Jan 2026
  • Built Ogmadocs - a Git-backed WYSIWYG documentation editor - in 3 weeks, preventing ~$10k/month in third-party documentation tooling costs. Now used by enterprise customers.
  • Designed and led an internal dogfooding program: an incentivized initiative pairing ecosystem developers with real users for over-the-shoulder interviews. Consistently surfaced over a dozen actionable issues across ~10 projects within the first 72 hours of each project entering the program.
  • Onboarded and mentored a new team member through his first months. Collaborated closely cross-team on product direction and documentation.
  • Led sprint standups for the DevRel team and produced developer enablement content including tutorials, workshops, videos, and reference implementations.
  • Supported developers at events and hackathons and translated recurring community friction into actionable product and documentation fixes.

Product Lead / Engineering Manager

RMRK
Aug 2020 โ€“ May 2024
  • Led a team of 6 engineers with full ownership of product vision, feature prioritization, and delivery across the RMRK modular NFT ecosystem.
  • Zero voluntary churn across the entire 3-year tenure - responsible for team support, progress tracking, and day-to-day engineering management.
  • Drove product strategy and fundraising efforts for the RMRK platform, aligning technical roadmap with business goals.
  • Oversaw infrastructure stability and the transition from fragile third-party services to a fully owned, maintainable stack.

Technical Educator / Developer Relations

Web3 Foundation
2019 โ€“ 2023
  • Rewrote the Polkadot Wiki from scratch and authored developer guides, tutorials, and documentation for the Substrate ecosystem.
  • Managed and published the official Polkadot weekly newsletter.
  • Organized and led hackathons and workshops - both online and in-person - focused on building Substrate chains and applications.

Technical Writer / Developer Relations

Status
2017 โ€“ 2019
  • Produced technical writing and developer-facing content for the Status ecosystem.
  • Represented the project at conferences and hackathons, supporting developer adoption and community engagement.

Developer Champion / SDK Engineer

Diffbot
Jul 2014 โ€“ 2020
  • Maintained and extended the official PHP client library used by customers integrating large-scale extraction and knowledge graph APIs.
  • Wrote documentation, built demos, and helped customers debug integrations, performance issues, and product fit questions.

Tech Team Lead / Senior Developer

InTechOpen (formerly Sciyo)
2013 โ€“ 2016
  • Led the technical team building and maintaining the publishing platform for open-access scientific literature.
  • Built backend systems for content workflows, job queues, parsing, and third-party integrations serving editorial and product teams.

Senior Editor / Technical Author

SitePoint
2012 โ€“ 2016
  • Wrote hundreds of technical articles, guides, and demos across PHP, JavaScript, and web development.
  • As Senior Editor, managed over 50 contributing authors from across the world - recruiting, mentoring, editing, and maintaining editorial quality.

Selected Projects

Kvasyr

Managed EVM indexing and webhook infrastructure. Built to give product teams queryable event views and reliable delivery without forcing them to own the entire pipeline.

RMRK Stack

Modular NFT standards plus the infrastructure that makes them usable in practice: marketplace, indexer, renderer, integrations, and product surfaces.

Ogmadocs

WYSIWYG docs tooling for product teams that need fast iteration, cleaner workflows, and less operational drag around content ownership.

Bitfalls Apps

Commercial macOS utilities including AgentView and Screenshot Blur, built around small sharp problems, good UX, and direct monetization.
