Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPiotr Wikieł is an engineering manager and long-time data platform specialist with 13 years at Allegro, blending hands-on JVM and Python development with leadership in large-scale Hadoop, Kafka, and GCP migrations. He led near-real-time ingestion of 1,000+ Kafka topics into BigQuery with low tens-of-seconds latency and helped drive the company-wide move to Google Cloud. Equally comfortable in legacy PHP and modern microservices architectures, Piotr rose through roles from junior PHP programmer to engineering manager, giving him practical empathy for engineers across the stack. He brings a learning-first mindset, often experimenting with new tools—he introduced ChatGPT into his company’s Slack—to improve developer productivity. Based in Toruń, Poland, he combines deep operational experience with a curiosity for emerging tech and pragmatic delivery at scale.
