About

An engineer who likes to understand the whole system

I'm Jakub Zając. I build and test software, and I also help companies and residents of Bydgoszcz with their everyday IT.

Most people in IT pick one narrow specialty. I deliberately went sideways: I worked as a QA and automation engineer in large, regulated environments while building my own applications, websites and business systems in parallel.

That taught me to look at technology the way a business owner does: I don't ask whether the code is fashionable, but whether it works, what it costs to maintain, and what happens when something breaks.

I gained experience on projects delivered in environments connected with organizations such as PwC, Roche and E.ON — around test automation, data quality and cloud platforms.

Alongside software projects I also run a computer service and IT support for companies in Bydgoszcz. It is not a side offer — it is the same philosophy: technology should simply work, for everyone.

How I work

  • 01

    One person, full accountability

    I don't hand work down a chain. I design, code, test and deploy personally — you always know who owns the result.

  • 02

    Quality is not an upsell

    Tests, version control and documentation are part of every engagement, not a separate line on the invoice.

  • 03

    Plain language

    I explain technical decisions in business terms. Jargon stays in the code, not in the conversation.

  • 04

    Built for the long run

    I build things so they can be maintained and extended three years from now — with or without me.
