Summary
Michal Negacz is a pragmatic software engineer with 12 years of experience building cloud-native, event-sourced systems and leading cross-functional teams. He has driven architecture and delivery at companies like AxonIQ—where he led an eight-person multinational cloud team building an event store SaaS across GCP and AWS—and now works at Grammarly. His strengths include designing distributed systems (RAFT-based event stores, CQRS, DDD), operationalizing multi-cloud deployments with Kubernetes and Terraform, and squeezing 3000% higher event replay throughput through reactive, non-blocking IO. Michal pairs hands-on implementation skills in Java/Kotlin and serverless patterns with strong facilitation—running event storming and user-story mapping workshops to align product and engineering. Based in Poland with an MSc in Computer Science, he favors practical, measurable improvements (for example, dramatically accelerating XML import workflows) over theoretical elegance.
