Piotr Kowalski is a Development Team Lead based in Wroclaw with over a decade of hands-on experience spanning testing, DevOps, and systems engineering across Linux/Unix and cloud environments. He blends deep operational expertise—HP-UX/AIX administration, high-availability hardware monitoring and backup orchestration—with modern DevOps practices like Terraform, Kubernetes, CI/CD and cloud migrations to AWS/Azure. As a former CTO/co-founder and current engineering leader at Acreto, he hires and scales teams while driving engineering excellence, metrics, and rapid learning cycles. Started as a tester and ISTQB-certified, he still uniquely combines test automation (Python, Bash, QuickTest) and performance frameworks with platform reliability responsibilities. Known for taking ownership across the stack, Piotr is comfortable building systems from scratch, negotiating with hardware vendors, and shifting organizations from manual ops to automated delivery.
