Summary
Anita Jaszewska is an engineering leader and academic teacher with 11 years of experience bridging backend development and people-centred management. With a foundation in Ruby on Rails and large-scale distributed systems, she has led teams up to 14 engineers, shaped roadmaps in product gaps, and improved hiring and engineering practices across startups and scale-ups. Her unique combination of a Master’s in Psychology and Gestalt psychotherapy training informs hands-on coaching, soft-skills workshops, and a talent-first approach to growing technical leaders. She regularly speaks at conferences and translates complex technical problems into clear team goals and small, executable steps during times of uncertainty. Based in Lower Silesia, Poland, she also runs Meandry and teaches at multiple universities, blending industry experience with academic instruction. Off-duty she pursues outdoor challenges—often climbing rocky or snowy peaks—a habit that mirrors her methodical, resilient approach to engineering and leadership.
