Jan Vlcek is a Designer and developer at PAQ Research. He possess expertise in strength, perception, endurance, charisma, intelligence and 37 more skills. He is proficient in German and English. Colleagues describe him as "I worked closely with Jan over the course of 18 months at GoodData. It only took a few weeks to admire his breadth of skill – programming, web development, rapid prototyping, interaction design, user research, visual design, data analysis... the list goes on. But what I came to appreciate over time is Jan’s drive to be extremely good at whatever he does. He has the empathy to identify the right problems to solve, the vision to generate innovative concepts, the patience to iterate on them, and the hacker work ethic to bring them to life. Jan has strong design sensibilities, but also an appreciation of resource constraints and business objectives. It’s this mindset that drove his success when designing the company’s new data visualization environment – a highly visible tool that garnered significant attention from the market. Regardless of whether we’re colleagues again in the years ahead, Jan will continue to be one of the first people I contact to bounce new ideas off of, discuss design trends, or debate the merits of new products. Any team would be lucky to have him." and "Jan joined the design team after being a UI developer in GoodData. In just about two years he learnt so much about design that at the end he was designing projects on his own with great results. If he continues this learning tempo paired with his prototyping skills (JS/HTML) he is gonna be very dangerous. Apart from design Jan cares about business strategies, lean and agile approaches and uses the knowledge to design better and more relevant experiences."
