Toruń, Poland
About
I'm a Computer Science student at Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń, specializing in artificial intelligence, and a developer with commercial experience in PHP/Symfony. What satisfies me most is getting a system to a state where it actually holds up - load, a bad connection, bad input - not just looking good in a demo.
Toruń · open to work
Outside of commercial work I build my own projects, to practice things there's no room for in a typical take-home task: splitting a monolith into microservices with the Strangler Fig pattern (Ordered), wiring AI into an offline-first app (Unordered), or a few Flutter apps available publicly on my GitHub.

MSc in Computer Science (AI)
Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń
Artificial Intelligence specialization.
What I work on
Four areas that overlap in my work - backend rarely exists without automation, and AI integrations rarely without the mobile app that uses them.
What I value
I test before I call it a success
Ordered went through Gatling load tests on the same scenarios as the monolith before I called the microservices split a success. The result, not the claim, is the proof.
Offline and errors are a normal app state, not an exception
In Unordered and HabitForge, data has to survive a bad connection. I design for that from the start, not bolt error handling on at the end.
I understand the whole before I split it
I only started splitting the monolith into microservices once I could explain every part of the system - otherwise a split just moves the problem, it doesn't solve it.
