Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolSylwester Rąpała is a pragmatic Back End Engineer based in Krakow with 11 years of hands-on experience building and maintaining production systems for startups and embedded deployments. He specializes in Rust and Go for backend and systems work, contributing to projects like the redis-rs client to improve data type parsing and robustness. His background spans sensor data collection, bare-metal device provisioning and protocols (MCCP/MTCP, DNP3), CI for cross-building on real devices, and time-series data modeling with PostgreSQL/Timescale and MongoDB. Comfortable moving between low-level C and high-level Python tooling, he combines field-facing troubleshooting (CPU freezes on devices) with automated deployment and observability (Grafana). Colleagues value his practical focus on reliability and his belief in Rust as a next-generation tool for systems safety and performance.
