Hi! I’m Paweł, and I live in the wooded western part of Poland, in the beautiful city of Gorzów Wielkopolski. I apologize if you just broke your tongue.
As a senior software architect and full-stack developer, I prioritize understanding my clients' business needs. I have been providing consulting services since 2011, and over the years, I have had the opportunity to work on projects across various industries alongside many incredible people.
My philosophy is simple. Software is made to solve problems. Clean, well-abstracted, and testable code is a signature of an experienced programmer. However, just because code is maintainable, it does not imply it does it’s job well. That’s the key. You pay for software, it has to do it’s job.
I create and implement strong foundations while considering future growth, but I aim to keep the solution as simple as possible.
What I can do for you
- Architect a whole platform, piece of software or automation process. I will ask a lot of questions to fully understand with your product’s domain. I will challenge existing assumption. The outcome will involve a precise description of the execution plan from both business and technical perspectives, milestoned to minimize the risks, ready to be executed.
- Implement your PoC or ready-to-go platform end-to-end. I work in Python, NodeJS, Golang, but I have also worked with C, PHP, Elixir on the backend. On the frontend, I’m happy to work with React, Angular and TailwindCSS. In between, you name it - I have worked on 36+ node Elasticsearch clusters, Redis servers with 10k/s pub/sub subscribers, properitary FFmpeg streaming platforms serving hundreds of viewers simultaneously, IoT ingestion platforms consuming, processing and exposing hudreds of datapoints (and few dozens of images) per second. I’m looking forward to adding more tech to this incomplete list 😎
- Deploy on and orchestrate barebone servers as well as cloud solutions (Amazon, Google Cloud, DigitalOcean)
- Optimize and improve an existing platform or workflow. I will enjoy working whatever solution you may have, legacy or not, and I guarantee you will be happy with the outcome.
- Make your platform, data and users observable. From Sentry, Datadog through Google Analytics, Funnelytics and VWO, you should be able to spot problems early and make informed decisions.
- Work with your team or help you hire the best talents. I have conducted many hire processes for technical roles.
I am committed to selecting the most appropriate tool for the task at hand.
What I can’t do for you
- Visual design - I’m happy to work with an existing design, with an outside designer, or I can bring my colleague.
- Work with WordPress - sorry.
In my free time, I enjoy traveling, cycling, motorcycle riding, and flying FPV drones, among other activities.
