My journey into IT began in 1993 with an Amiga 500. What started as gaming quickly turned into curiosity about how the system actually worked. The turning point came when I opened a text editor and sent my first output to a dot-matrix printer. In that moment something clicked. The machine followed my instructions precisely. It sparked a lifelong fascination and a desire to work with computers.
Hello
I'm a software architect based in Warsaw, Poland, with over 17 years of professional experience in IT. My expertise focuses on delivering clean, minimal, and efficient solutions to complex business problems. I specialize in reducing technical debt and modernizing legacy systems, with a strong emphasis on well-designed foundations.
Work
I build high-performance e-commerce platforms, custom internal web applications, and websites that deliver both form and function. I focus on security, quality, minimalism, and pragmatism to build products that people can rely on.
Tools
My primary tech stack is PHP with the Laravel framework. I value tools that are mature, well-designed, and practical in real-world projects. I'm fully productive on macOS, supported by a set of custom scripts and aliases that streamline my daily work.
Soft skills & approach
I translate complex technical concepts into clear, actionable language, helping align business goals with technical solutions. Having spent six years working in Australia, I'm comfortable operating in international environments and collaborating across cultures, time zones, and teams.
Hobbies
Outside of work, I enjoy traveling and exploring new places, often with a camera in hand. I'm particularly drawn to street photography, usually working with 35mm prime lenses. I also have a long-standing interest in retro computing, especially classic Amiga systems. In my downtime, I listen to Depeche Mode and collect sealed big-box editions of games and software that were important to me.
Day to Day
I work as a fully remote IT consultant, delivering software for clients around the globe.
