Most of my work belongs to my employers.
There are however three exceptions:
- Kata 形 is my recent toy project to show of my skills in algorithms and idiomatic Go.
- osin-dynamodb is a Go library which implements the storage for OSIN with Amazon DynamoDB using aws-sdk-go. Developed at Uniplaces.
- ninja-mutex is a simple to use mutex implementation for php. It supports different adapters (flock, memcache, mysql, redis, ...) so you can set it up as you wish. All adapters (if set up properly) can be used in multiserver environment - in other words lock is shared between web servers. I've created it as a demo of my skills, a demo I could show on job interviews.
All those projects show some of my skills, coding standards and love for testing.
- steady income (to pay rent, read books and support my family and my hobbies)
- opportunity to learn new programming language
- opportunity to work and exchange knowledge with a team of specialists
- opportunity to share knowledge via blogs and talks
- experience in international product building and team leading
- experience with technologies you use
- opportunity to learn new language (e.g. French, Spanish, German, Mandarin or/and proper English)
- office space
- opportunities to travel
Do you think my skills could be useful for your company or clients? Can you offer me anything from the list above?
Great! Please contact me via email hire@dziedzic.fr

My experience with Kamil was that of being with a Golang expert. He knew all the greedy details from the language and always had some optimization/refactor suggestions to make. This however, never distracted him from the goal of finishing his tasks on time. Basically speaking, he knew what to do and when - which I think is a great quality many developers I have met missed. He was also very team oriented, and generally speaking an easy person to be with - a developer capable of being in any team thanks to his social skills. I highly recommend him!
