Summary
John Wolski is a founder and seasoned IT professional with over two decades of hands-on experience designing resilient systems, leading Refresh IT and launching the cyber security startup SecurIT123. He combines electronic engineering roots with deep expertise across networking, Windows infrastructure, SQL/.NET development and industrial connectivity to deliver pragmatic, cost-saving solutions that prioritise uptime and rapid recoverability. John favours proactive monitoring and automation over off-the-shelf fixes, often writing custom tools (network discovery, syslog receivers, netflow collectors and AD agents) to solve niche client problems. Comfortable soldering as well as scripting, he bridges hardware and software in ways many IT providers overlook, for example building bespoke power converters and legacy system links. Known for Yorkshire honesty and knowledge-sharing, he routinely partners with incumbent IT teams rather than displacing them to deliver lasting operational improvements.
