Top SchoolEric Bolikowski is a Berlin-based full-stack product engineer and technical lead with 15 years of hands-on experience and a strong track record as a founder, mentor, and interim product owner. He specializes in TypeScript, React, NestJS and cloud-native AWS/Azure deployments, frequently bridging product and engineering to deliver practical, user-focused solutions from greenfield builds to complex legacy migrations. Notable outcomes include an open-source mentorship platform that matched 1,000 mentees to mentors and drove hundreds of hires, plus a data-visualization platform for the Norwegian Refugee Council that boosted public engagement. Eric pairs deep technical craft—DDD, TDD, GraphQL, RxJS and CI/CD with Terraform/GitHub Actions—with recruiting and team-building skills, having scaled multiple product teams. He’s taught and mentored 100+ students and 1:1 coached ten engineers, reflecting a constant commitment to developer growth alongside shipping product impact. An early coder since age 14, he’s as comfortable optimizing Salesforce integrations as he is prototyping AI-driven features using tools like ChatGPT.
