Summary
Bartosz Kita is an IT Expert and software engineer with 15 years of hands-on experience building backend systems, data pipelines and full-stack applications, currently driving data engineering efforts at Roche. He specializes in JVM ecosystems (Java, Groovy, Kotlin, some Scala) and large-scale batch and streaming processing with Apache Spark, Kafka and Flink, while also contributing front-end (Vue.js) and Android-native work when needed. Bartosz blends system and code architecture skills—monoliths to microservices, event-driven design, modularity and functional patterns—with practical DevOps know-how (Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, Prometheus/Grafana). His background as a UNIX and storage administrator gives him uncommon operational insight into performance and observability for data-heavy systems. He’s passionate about choosing the right tool for the job, has driven greenfield projects and research (including service mesh and voice assistants), and mentors teams, conducts technical interviews and helps shape engineering communities. Based in Greater Poland, he maintains an active GitHub (github.com/barthand) and continues exploring IoT integration for his software.
