Great Team

Hi, my name is Jiri and I’m a subdomain manager. I started my career at DHL IT Services back in 2004, when I took a role as Senior application support specialist in the Express Web applications support team. In 2006 I moved to a management role and became a manager of this support team for 14 years. I was always enjoying this job because working in DHL has never been boring and it has been bringing new challenges, personal development and opportunities to meet a lot of inspiring people from different cultures. In 2018 I moved from ops to development area for dhl.com platform and Express sales. In 2023 our organization made a big shift and came with truly devops approach fully integrating development and ops area together. Since that time the team is providing end to end delivery from idea to implementation. Looking forward to having you onboard!
