David Hrncir has been solving "Big Data" problems since before the industry had a name for them. As a veteran software and data engineer at Fivetran, David’s career is defined by a singular, defiant mission: the total elimination of non-value-added activities. Having architected data ecosystems for Fortune 500 giants across every vertical, David is a leading advocate for Open Data Infrastructure (ODI) and end-to-end automation. He believes that in the age of AI, building complex, manual data integrations is a relic of the past that hinders true innovation. Today, David partners with global tech leaders to prove that when organizations stop "moving" data and start "utilizing" it, they unlock the real potential of AI and modern analytics. Known for his "no challenge is too big" attitude, David balances technical rigor with a philosophical approach to data—making him a favorite on expert panels and hands-on labs alike.
