Full-Stack Software Engineer
& People Manager

I am a full-stack software engineer with 11+ years of experience delivering end-to-end web applications using .NET and modern front-end frameworks. I specialize in building systems that are not just functional, but maintainable, performant, and ready for real-world scale. From architecture to deployment, I focus on writing clean, sustainable code while ensuring the systems I build can evolve with the business.

Looking for a mid-level engineering role in Poland or Europe where strong engineering culture matters more than title.
