    I design and build software with sustainability in mind – ideally it should scale effortlessly, accommodating growth without breaking a sweat. Modularity plays important role here \u2013 it keeps things efficient, promotes single responsibility for cleaner code, and makes testing easier.<\/p>\n

    When writing code, I aim for simplicity. I’ll always encourage you to follow the KISS and YAGNI principles \u2013 keep it stupid, simple because you aren’t gonna need it. Source code must be understandable, after all it should document itself.\u00a0 Also, avoid over-engineering solutions – your company’s money is rarely a playground to redesign the application’s architecture.<\/p>\n\t <\/div>\n\t \t

    Master of Science in Computer Science
    \nAges ago, I graduated from the Warsaw University of Technology (in Poland) in The Faculty of Electronics and Information Technology with Major in Information and Decision Systems<\/p>\n

    Quickly learnt, that Computer Science is not about changing games’ files and building html websites. Instead, I studied Optimal Control Problems and Dynamic Optimization algorithms to adopt parallel programming techniques (such as OpenMP directives and Streaming SIMD Extensions) for optimisation solvers to improve their efficiency.<\/p>\n

    During my master degree, I dealt with more human-friendly topic which was e-shopping cart optimisation by multiple criteria in form of an Android app. And before you ask, it did not have Clean Architecture implemented…<\/p>\n\t <\/div>\n\t \t
