About

I am an experienced Senior Engineering Manager with a robust background in software development and team leadership. Currently, I lead three teams of software engineers and QA specialists at NDA, where I split my time between hands-on coding and managerial responsibilities. My technical expertise includes JavaScript, TypeScript, Google App Script, React, Node, GraphQL, Azure, GCP, AWS, R, PHP, and GatsbyJS. I am responsible for capacity planning, recruitment, performance reviews, and bridging the communication gap between engineering and business. My role also involves mentoring team members, managing OKRs, and ensuring the teams have the necessary tools and support to succeed. Previously, I served as the D2C Development Lead at Reckitt Benckiser, where I managed a global e-commerce team across three continents. My responsibilities included line management, technical mentoring, and serving as the primary technical contact for business stakeholders. I led innovation initiatives and worked with technologies such as JavaScript, NodeJS, React.js, Redux, Jest, AWS, and Terraform. My earlier roles at Ergo Digital IT, Devskiller, IPF Digital Poland, IMS HEALTH, Roche Polska, 7N, RR Donnelley Europe, Devonshire, Yamo, and Artnova provided me with extensive experience in frontend and full-stack development, system upgrades, project management, and consulting. My educational background includes information technologies studies, and I hold various certifications in web usability and ECDL. I am passionate about cycling, jogging, new tech gadgets, dancing, and traveling.

Best back-end engineers I've ever worked with...​

“I interviewed about a dozen different firms. DevsData LLC is truly exceptional – their backend developers are some of the best I’ve ever worked with. I’ve worked with a lot of very well-qualified developers, locally in San Francisco, and remotely, so that is not a compliment I offer lightly. I appreciate their depth of knowledge and their ability to get things done quickly. “
