Trainitek / Mintra / Sparkbyte Solutiond LTD

I’m a CTO of Sparkbyte Solutions, co-owner of Trainitek, and an architect and tech lead at Mintra. I have 19 years of experience, mainly in the Java world. I’ve spent a lot of time mentoring developers and leading teams, with a big focus on creating solutions that will actually last for many years. That got me into Software Craftsmanship, Domain-Driven Design, and code quality early on.

Over my career, I’ve completed many small and large projects that run in production, interviewed developers, handled communication with customers, designed architecture for entire systems and delivered them, and introduced many technologies proven in production. I have 15 years of experience working in the Scandinavian market.

Through Trainitek, I’ve trained over 650 people in modern architecture, Domain-Driven Design, EventStorming, and testing. We’ve worked with more than 40 companies so far.

I like to share what I know at conferences: Devoxx Poland, Devoxx UK, NDC Oslo, JavaZone, jPrime, JDD in Kraków, and others.
