Who am I?

Hi, I'm Ivo Hrádek [iʋo] [ɦrɑːðɛk], people also call me by nickname Hrádeček [ɦraːdɛtʃɛk], which I've been given during my short, but bright footbal career.

Currently, I'm working as a Quality Engineer at Red Hat, settled down in beautiful Moravian city, Brno, in Czech Republic. In Red Hat, I'm working mainly on JBoss Enterprise Application Platform and JBoss Business Rule Management System.

I have graduated as a Bachelor of Computer scine at Faculty of Informatics on Masaryk University, where I have focused on many fields of computer science. Reverse engineering and research of Binary XML format used in Android platform has been captured in my final bachelor thesis published at is.muni.cz (only Slovak language) with source code at github.com/hradecek/apk2xml published under Apache Licence, Version 2.0.

During high school studies at SPŠ Fraňa Kráľa in my beloved city Nitra, where I have studied Industrial informatics, I have attended many technical oriented contests, e.g. Technical Idea of the Year (1st place) or national round of Student Research and Professional Activities (so called SOČ) in which me and my colleague had big success with our fully working PLC implementation.
