Work with me

I help SaaS companies make mature web applications faster, more reliable, and easier to evolve.

I've spent over 20 years building, scaling, and operating production web apps, APIs, and infrastructure — the last 15 of them mostly in Ruby on Rails and Postgres.

If your app has slowed down, you're dealing with production incidents and team frustration, or you're missing senior technical leadership — start below.

Results

I've known Piotr for a decade and I'm always impressed with his skill and knowledge. When it came to updating the aging JSFiddle infrastructure, I knew who to ask and I was not disappointed. Piotr helped with the codebase and infrastructure stack modernization. After all was done I had two things: a modern stack, and saved 2-3x on infra costs.
