Data & AI Market Direction

05 // AUTHOR & PROJECT PHILOSOPHY

Antonín Kučera

Data & BI Leader • Google Cloud & BigQuery Specialist • Creator of Vector87

I build and lead Data and Business Intelligence teams, architect cloud data platforms (primarily on Google Cloud Platform and BigQuery), and apply AI where it genuinely solves real operational problems. Over the years, I have led BI and data platforms in high-traffic environments including Livesport and speak across the Central European data community (Data Talk, Data Day).

Vector87 was born as an independent counterweight to the marketing hype surrounding artificial intelligence. Instead of repeating vendor claims or LinkedIn impressions, we track where S&P 500 enterprises actually put their money, measured through verified job posts, required engineering competencies, and shifts in organizational hierarchy.

WHY VECTOR 87?EST. 1987 // TELEMETRY

Vector represents mathematical direction and magnitude: capturing where the data and AI job market is genuinely heading.

87 is the year I was born. In a world full of synthetic AI fluff and corporate buzzwords, I wanted to anchor this project on real numbers, verified job posts, and practical data experience.
