- CTU
Pavel Trávníček is an assistant professor at the Czech Technical University in Prague and a co-founder of the CTU spin-off Constriq. His work sits at the intersection of engineering, embedded systems, artificial intelligence, and digital construction. He combines academic research with hands-on technology development, ranging from hardware design and low-power IoT devices to software systems for data processing, visualization, and practical deployment.
His technical background spans the full development stack. On the hardware side, he designs and prototypes custom electronic systems for sensing, monitoring, and autonomous operation in real environments, including battery-powered and energy-conscious IoT devices. His work includes PCB design, component selection, RF integration, power-path optimization, embedded firmware development, sensor integration, and testing of prototypes for long-term field use. He is also involved in practical fabrication workflows, debugging, and iterative refinement from first prototype to deployable unit.
On the software side, he works across both backend and frontend development. He builds data pipelines and cloud-connected systems for device communication, telemetry ingestion, storage, and visualization. He also develops user-facing applications and portals that connect hardware, AI models, and engineering workflows into usable digital products. His experience includes API design, licensing and deployment logic, server-side services, and frontend interfaces for technical users and customers.
