Developer with backend specialty (20+ years of experience in PHP itself + strong Node.js/TypeScript) experienced in developing, securing, and maintaining big scale web applications. Primary focus on pragmatism – finding the right balance between code quality and business value; promoting the usage of good practices.
I have worked with both monolithic and microservices-oriented architectures - I hold it both in high esteem as each has its benefits and challenges. If your monolithic application doesn't scale as well as you'd like and think that microservices might be a solution, contact me first and let's talk about possible solutions.
Every problem challenge needs a different approach and a technology stack.
I've built my strongest skills around Backend development over the years, but since I tend to question everything - even my own assumptions - I've also learned to love Frontend as well, and have become a Fullstack developer capable of delivering the whole solution.
These are my top skills, see the CV for more.
We worked together with Tomek on the project, and I can confidently recommend him as a very conscientious and reliable developer. Tomek is a specialist in web application design, with a strong knowledge of modern software development techniques. And at the same time he is a great man.
I worked with Tomek for 3 years on two projects. As a programmer, he always cares about the quality of the product - both technically and in terms of usability for the end customer. Meticulous and inquisitive. Looking for solutions in every situation. As a team member - a good colleague with whom you just want to talk from time to time. I hope that one day we will work together on something again.
Given the chance to share my experiences or the things that drive me at the moment, I always do everything I can to deliver the top value to my audience.
