🗃️ Some of my work...

Background

Since the university times I’ve been putting strong emphasis on inclusive product development and user experience. I participated in various projects in the areas of R&D, fast prototyping and continuous feedback.

In addition to degrees of BSc and MSc from Lodz University of Technology I completed 3 exchange semesters in Finland and Portugal in the areas of Business IT and Computer Science.

During that time I focused on building Human-Computer Interfaces (HCI) and completed many projects in that area. I co-authored a conference paper about enhancing brainstorming sessions.

Professional Experience

Over time I specialised in web technologies. In the first years I worked on enterprise scale web applications but also branched out into the areas of Virtual Reality and programming drones.

I worked for different sized companies and eventually focused on building SaaS products with startups.

Projects

Although I’m not able to share every project I worked on, here you can find several examples.

🚧 This sections is a work in progress as I need to prepare some shareable content 🚧

📌 Skedify

I worked as a web developer for Skedify for two years between 2020 and 2020. Below you can find a recording of one of the major projects I was involved in during that time:

📌 Stoka

I’ve been observing NestJS since its early days. At that time my professional work was mostly focused on front-end so I decided to build a hobby side project in an area that interests me outside of work. So I created an API for managing stock data.

Features

• Supports both Rest API and GraphQL
• Username/Password/JWT authentication and authorization
• Searching financial instruments of different types and traded on multiple markets
• Adding instruments to a personal collection
• Retrieving and storing historical price data. Can be trigerred manually or by a CRON job
• WIP: Alert on price reaching a predefined value (prelude to stop loss and similar)

I was developing the project for a bit over a year between 2020 and 2021. I eventually abandoned it for multiple reasons, also because I discovered myfund.pl that meets all my needs. Unfortunately the project is no longer live (it was burning my cloud resources 😉) but I shared the project on GitHub.

📌 astro-spotify

Here’s a mini project that you can actually witness if you go back to the main page! When I decided to try out Astro and build my personal website, I was looking for something that I could share with the community of this awesome framework. Since music plays a vital role in my life, building a Spotify integration for Astro sounded like a good idea :)

It retrieves and displays the currently played song on Spotify. I’m actually looking forward to developing this integration further and adding more usable Astro components. Feel free to add suggestions!
