Summary
Michał Balcerzak is a pragmatic software engineer with 9 years of experience building full‑stack web applications and shipping production systems from the ground up. Based in the Warsaw metro area, he helped design and deliver a custom Ruby on Rails / Spree e-commerce platform for a Y Combinator‑backed U.S. startup, enabling its operations to scale by automating repetitive data tasks. His practical stack spans Rails, Node.js, React/React Native, PostgreSQL and AWS, with hands‑on experience integrating front‑end and cloud services. An early internship taught him remote collaboration and iterative product improvement, and he continues to favor solutions that simplify operations and reduce manual work. Trained in computer science at the University of Warsaw, he combines mathematical rigor with a maker’s instinct to “make stuff happen.” Notably, he focuses on impact-driven engineering rather than flashy tech, preferring durable automation that keeps growing teams productive.
