Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMichał Smolarek is a software architect with 7 years of hands-on experience building cloud-native and systems-level software, currently shaping architecture at MetalBear. He led development of mirrord as a Rust developer and squad lead, working with preloaded UNIX libraries, containerized services on Kubernetes, and editor plugins that improve developers’ real-time cloud debugging. His background spans low-level C++ storage systems, embedded control software for a cyclotron, DeFi on Ethereum, and full-stack Python web apps—reflecting a rare blend of systems programming and developer tooling. He has taught operating systems and OOP at the University of Warsaw, which informs his clarity on OS internals and pedagogy. Based in Warsaw, he pairs pragmatic engineering with an eye for developer experience, often asking the simple but revealing question he jokes about on GitHub: “Why machine not work?”
