He specializes in PHP and Symfony across high-throughput systems (Postgres, MySQL, Kafka, Redis, RabbitMQ) and has led backend teams designing event-driven, cloud-native architectures with Kubernetes and CI/CD. Comfortable in multiple languages—Go, Rust, C/C++, C#, Perl, Kotlin and Dart/Flutter—he blends deep practical engineering with architectural patterns like DDD, CQRS and Saga orchestration.

Based in Lublin, Poland, he maintains an active GitHub (mmalessa) and is motivated by the craft of programming rather than titles, often tackling both legacy migrations and modern microservice design.
