Kamil Holubicki is a Staff Software Engineer with 20+ years of hands-on experience building high-performance, multithreaded C/C++ and Go systems across Linux and Windows, currently driving database and clustering projects at Percona. He combines deep systems knowledge—kernel/user-space debugging, performance optimization, OS and database internals—with proven product-level architecture and technical leadership, having led teams up to 25 engineers. Comfortable in ambiguous, fast-changing international environments, he excels at turning vague requirements into maintainable, testable solutions and advocates for simple, efficient designs. His background spans embedded STB and IoT backends to large-scale MySQL tooling (XtraDB Cluster, XtraBackup, Orchestrator), reflecting a strong open-source and cloud-native focus. Beyond code, he brings experience in process improvement, recruiting, and mentoring, and a unique blend of electronics, telecoms and social-psychology studies that helps him bridge technical and human factors in product delivery.
