Marcin Jeleński is a seasoned software engineer and engineering manager with nine years of experience building web and mobile products and leading distributed teams from Warsaw. He has scaled delivery in startups and high-growth companies—recruiting and managing a remote SCRUM team of 11 at ShiftKey while introducing automation, inner-sourcing and Kanban to cut cycle time and defect leakage. As a founder and full-stack developer he launched multiple Lean Canvas-driven projects using cloud stacks (AWS, DigitalOcean, Supabase) and modern ML tooling (OpenAI, Llama), bridging product discovery with hands-on implementation. Now at ElevenLabs, he combines mobile and backend expertise with a leadership mindset honed through roles from technical advisor to team lead and board advisor. A Harvard Business School Online certificate in Management Essentials complements his technical MSc in IT, reflecting a rare blend of product-facing curiosity and operational rigor. Notably, Marcin’s background shows a pattern of moving between deep engineering and strategic roles, making him as comfortable shipping code as shaping product strategy.
