Experience
I have worked on both sides: as an engineer and as a leader
I don't learn on your infrastructure. The problems I solve are problems I have run production systems through.
Production environments
I design for systems serving real business traffic — not for documentation or slide decks.
Organizations at every scale
Software houses, SaaS, scale-ups and enterprises. I know the platform problems of companies at every stage.
AWS and Kubernetes daily
Amazon EKS, Terraform, GitOps and observability are tools I have used in production for years — not just studied for certifications.
About
A practitioner who takes responsibility for delivery
Over 17 years of working with production systems taught me one thing: the best architecture is the one a team can maintain for years. That is why I design solutions that are simple, automated and ready for real traffic.
I combine three perspectives: an engineer who ships the work, an architect who sees the whole system, and a leader who knows how to transfer knowledge to a team. When the engagement ends, you are left with a platform your team understands and can evolve.
In practice this means: shorter commit-to-production cycles, fewer incidents that wake people up at night, a predictable cloud bill, and infrastructure that can be rebuilt in hours, not weeks.
How I help
Solving concrete platform problems
I don't sell DevOps hours. I deliver solutions that let teams ship products faster and more safely.
AWS Architecture
Your infrastructure grew organically and nobody remembers why it looks the way it does.
I design architecture matched to your product’s scale and roadmap — with account structure, networking and security built in from day one.
Platform Engineering
Product teams spend their time on operational toil instead of building the product.
I build internal developer platforms that shorten the path from commit to production and take operational work off product teams.
Kubernetes & Amazon EKS
The cluster works, but nobody wants to touch it. Scaling and upgrades are a risk every single time.
I design, deploy and evolve Kubernetes clusters — from autoscaling with Karpenter, through Helm and ArgoCD, to multi-environment strategies.
Infrastructure as Code
Infrastructure is created by hand in the console. Rebuilding an environment borders on a miracle.
All infrastructure defined in Terraform or OpenTofu — reproducible, versioned and ready for disaster recovery.
CI/CD
Deployments take hours, require manual steps and always happen “after hours”.
I design GitLab CI/CD and GitHub Actions pipelines that cut deployment time to minutes and eliminate manual operations.
Cloud Migration
The move to AWS keeps getting postponed because nobody can assess the risk.
I plan and run migrations in stages: dependency analysis, prioritization, rollback plans. No downtime, no surprises.
Cost Optimization
Your cloud bill grows faster than your revenue.
I analyze spend and implement changes that lower costs without degrading performance or reliability — from right-sizing to purchasing strategy.
Observability
You learn about outages from your customers.
I implement monitoring, logging and alerting built on Prometheus, Grafana and ELK — so you detect problems before your users do.
Infrastructure Audits
You need an independent assessment of architecture, security or DevOps processes.
I run the audit and deliver a prioritized list — with effort and impact estimates for each change. Not a hundred-page report.
Mentoring & Interim Leadership
Your DevOps team needs support — or a leader while the platform is being built.
I mentor DevOps and Platform Engineering teams and step in as an interim leader — until the team reaches full independence.
Engagements start at 400 PLN net / hour.

Why WebMind
Infrastructure worth millions needs someone who has done it before
17+ years of practice
Experience earned on production environments — where an architectural mistake costs real money.
A practitioner, not a slide consultant
I design and I deliver. My recommendations end with working infrastructure, not a presentation.
IaC as the standard
All infrastructure in code: reproducible, auditable and recoverable after a failure.
Security from the start
Security is part of the architecture from day one — not a phase bolted on at the end.
Cost optimization
I design with the cloud bill in mind. Performance and reliability without overpaying.
Team mentoring
The goal is not to make you dependent on me. I stay until your team reaches full independence.
How we work together
From a conversation to a working platform in five steps
- 01
Free intro call
One hour. We discuss your situation and goals. We check whether I can genuinely help — if not, I will say so.
- 02
Analysis and audit
I review architecture, costs and processes. I identify risks, bottlenecks and quick wins.
- 03
Action plan
You get concrete recommendations with priorities, estimated effort and the expected impact of each change.
- 04
Implementation
I deliver the changes independently or together with your team — with automation, testing and documentation living in code.
- 05
Knowledge transfer
I train the team, tidy up the documentation and stay available as a partner for the next stages of your platform.
FAQ
Questions I hear most often
What does the first call look like?
It is a free one-hour conversation. I ask about your architecture, team and business goals. If I decide I am not the right person for your problem, I will say so — and point you in a better direction if I can.
Do you work remotely?
I prefer working on-site, especially at the start of a project — that is when I learn the system, the team and the context fastest. I live in Wrocław, but I will travel when the project requires it. Later on I work hybrid or remotely, with regular communication and full transparency on progress.
What is the minimum engagement?
Anything from a single audit or a few days of consulting to a multi-month collaboration. The scope always matches the real need — I don’t sell engagement you don’t need.
Do you sign NDAs?
Yes, that is standard. Before I get access to any documentation, code or infrastructure, we sign a non-disclosure agreement.
Do you work independently or with our team?
Both models. I can take full ownership of a topic and deliver a finished solution, or work side by side with your engineers. Companies that want to ship changes and upskill the team at the same time usually choose the latter.
How long does an infrastructure audit take?
Usually one to two weeks, depending on the scale of the environment and availability of documentation. It ends with a workshop where I walk your team through the findings and recommendations.
How is the engagement billed?
Hourly or for a defined scope, depending on the nature of the project. Engagements start at 400 PLN net per hour. I always present an effort estimate before we start.
Do you have experience with large organizations?
Yes. Over 17+ years I have worked with organizations of all sizes — from startups to enterprises. I understand both the dynamics of small teams and the processes and security requirements of large companies.
What if our stack differs from what you list?
The principles of designing reliable platforms are universal. If your stack falls outside my core areas, I will say so on the first call and assess whether I can help before proposing anything.
What is interim Platform Engineering Leadership?
I take on the platform leadership role for a defined period — e.g. while building a platform from scratch, during a reorganization or while you hire a permanent leader. I step out when the team is ready to run independently.
Do you mentor engineering teams?
Yes. I work with DevOps and Platform Engineering teams — from architecture reviews and pair work to a competency development program matched to the team’s level.
How quickly can you start?
It depends on current project load — usually within one to two weeks. Urgent situations, like incidents or audits ahead of major decisions, get priority.
