Top SchoolKamil Skalski is a seasoned software engineer and founder with 17 years of experience building and scaling high-performance distributed systems and user-facing products. He led a Google web-search infrastructure team that scaled an index serving system for the planet’s largest web corpus, co-invented a patented data structure, and optimized sharding and rollout processes to halve update costs. As CTO of Elector.pro he designed end-to-end voting systems spanning custom mobile hardware, Android apps, desktop clients, web APIs and a private Kubernetes cluster with HA Postgres and Longhorn storage. He has deep backend and performance expertise—contributing low-level C++ and memory-allocation fixes to an open-source distributed file system and implementing LINQ and core library improvements in a .NET-to-JS project. Comfortable moving between hands-on engineering and technical leadership, he combines academic compiler experience (Nemerle) with practical product delivery and secure, audited systems for real-world use. Located in the Gdansk area, he brings a rare mix of infrastructure-scale thinking and embedded-device product pragmatism.
