👋 Hi, I’m Dariusz.
I blend the boundaries of creativity and technology, always learning (and unlearning), reflecting on stuff and exploring. If you wish to find out more, click here.
If you are looking for other creative stuff of mine, you will find it here:
Do you want to work in tech with me?
I am an experienced computing professional delivering high-quality operational software systems and processes with efficiency and effectiveness. Data-driven and goal-oriented, I focus on building quality products and fostering robust processes.
I thrive in collaborative, learning-focused cultures that prioritise teamwork, people, and career development. For me, it’s always people first—and I truly mean it.
If you’re interested in working with me, take a look below. I’ve made it simple for you to decide if we’d be a great fit to work together.
- You don’t want to hire me if you expect someone to tolerate empty promises about career progression.
- You don’t want to hire me if your idea of “innovation” is using buzzwords to deceive clients.
- You don’t want to hire me if you lack the technical expertise to understand your own business model.
- You don’t want to hire me if you value appearance over actual skill and results.
- You don’t want to hire me if you believe that overworking your employees is the only way to increase profits.
- You don’t want to hire me if you rely on vague metrics to measure success instead of tangible outcomes.
- You don’t want to hire me if your idea of leadership involves gaslighting and manipulation.
- You don’t want to hire me if your strategy for client retention is misleading them about deliverables.
- You don’t want to hire me if you think “team culture” is a facade to hide toxic behaviours.
- You don’t want to hire me if your recruitment process is built on luring candidates with false promises.
- You don’t want to hire me if you prioritise short-term profits over long-term employee well-being.
- You don’t want to hire me if you believe your employees’ personal time belongs to the company.
- You don’t want to hire me if you have no intention of supporting staff facing mental health challenges.
- You don’t want to hire me if your solution to technical problems is to ignore them and hope no one notices.
- You don’t want to hire me if you think it’s acceptable to exploit junior employees as “cost-effective resources.”
- You don’t want to hire me if you are uncomfortable with team members who call out unethical behaviour when they see it.
- You don’t want to hire me if your business model depends on overcharging clients for under-delivering.
- You don’t want to hire me if you mistake loyalty for silent tolerance of injustice.
- You don’t want to hire me if you think “collaboration” means taking credit for others’ work.
- You don’t want to hire me if you can’t handle someone who refuses to be complicit in unethical practices.
Also, after some years of experimentation and research, I can state that:
- Never again will I work for a company that values profits over people.
- Never again will I stay silent when I witness unethical behaviour.
- Never again will I accept vague job descriptions hiding a lack of actual strategy.
- Never again will I overlook a company’s red flags during an interview process.
- Never again will I tolerate being gaslighted about my expertise or contributions.
- Never again will I work for leaders who lack the technical skills to understand their team’s work.
- Never again will I accept an employer taking credit for my achievements.
- Never again will I stay in an environment where raising concerns leads to retaliation.
- Never again will I allow my creativity to be exploited without recognition.
- Never again will I ignore warning signs of a company using its people as disposable resources.
- Never again will I trust a company whose leadership can’t back up its promises with action.
- Never again will I accept a job offer without clear and measurable career development plans.
- Never again will I sacrifice my mental health for an organisation that doesn’t value it.
- Never again will I accept excuses for why basic employee rights can’t be met.
- Never again will I be part of a team that uses deception to maintain client relationships.
- Never again will I work for a company that doesn’t invest in its employees’ growth.
- Never again will I let myself be silenced by fear of losing my job.
- Never again will I be manipulated by “perks” designed to distract from a toxic culture.
- Never again will I let my expertise be undermined by those who don’t understand it.
- Never again will I work somewhere that prioritises reputation over integrity.
