Krzysztof Mataj
I worked with Pawel 9 years. He has extensive knowledge and experience in wide range of fields. From system design, to debugging hardware issue with memory unit (literally). He has great coding skills and constantly did a lot of performance optimizations. Pawel is great team player. If there is an issue, he just acts and solve it. He is always up to date with everything related to IT. All of these makes a very unique set of skills. Having a coffee break with him is always fun.

I'd worked with Pawel for two years, guys like him are few and far between, having extensive technical knowledge (c++, boost, multithreading, scripting, you name it), grasp for learning everything on the fly and also great interpersonal skills. There are no impossible tasks for him, whether it's implementing sophisticated business logic or supporting client 24/7. He's always looking for improvements, be it performance bottlenecks or development process inefficiencies, and always has ready solutions for them. All that has direct influence on the team as Pawel is keen to share his knowledge, always ready to help and mentor those in need. It was a fun ride, thanks Pawel !
