Meet the mentors
I have more than 20 years of software development experience. Depending on project needs I act as a software architect, engineer, DevOps or Ops specialist, and sometimes even a business analyst or project manager. My work spans many industries and I focus on designing robust architectures and improving Developer Experience so that development is both pleasant and productive while staying aligned with business goals. I keep close track of the fast moving world of AI tools for software and business development, experiment with different approaches, and share what works. My goal is to improve Developer Experience and hand over repetitive tasks that do not require creativity to AI tools, because used properly these tools can greatly enhance ongoing work.
I am a problem solver who loves building scalable, high impact software solutions. I have strong expertise in Python, C++, and JavaScript and I am actively exploring Go, Rust, blockchain, and AI related technologies. I thrive on tackling complex technical challenges and I regularly share knowledge through conference talks and in my role as a university lecturer. In today's rapidly evolving landscape where AI is becoming an essential coding partner I believe it is crucial to embrace technology rather than resist it. My main focus is to unite traditional software engineering excellence with the newest AI capabilities.
