Zsolt Szamosvölgyi is a software engineer at Tesco, where he works on the payment team, building systems that power smooth and reliable transactions at scale. He started coding in primary school, taking part in several programming competitions early on – and that curiosity quickly turned into a career centered around backend development and system design.

With 8 years of experience, Zsolt brings a thoughtful, hands-on approach to solving complex engineering challenges. He also teaches software development, helping others grow their skills and confidence in tech.

More recently, he’s been diving into the world of artificial intelligence, convinced it’s not just the next big thing – it’s the beginning of a major shift across the entire industry. As he puts it: if you miss the shift toward AI, the industry will shift without you.
