Hey, my name is Krzysztof! You can call me Chris if it's easier for you - Krzysztof is just 'Christopher' written in a funky Polish way.
How to reach me:
I'm a Senior DevOps Consultant at AWS Professional Services Generative AI Innovation Center in Warsaw! 🇵🇱
Over 5+ years at AWS ProServe I've delivered across automotive, finance, manufacturing, and telecommunications sectors. My work spans the full stack: one of the most advanced autonomous driving data frameworks running entirely in the cloud, GenAI productionalization and Path-to-Production assessments, MLOps pipelines on SageMaker, Kubernetes-based AI inference platforms, and large-scale cloud security automation. The scale varies wildly from project to project - from C-level strategy sessions to backends serving tens of thousands of users daily.
Technically, I specialize in serverless backend development (Python), Kubernetes (EKS) for inference and HPC workloads, scalable Infrastructure as Code (CDK / Terraform / SAM), and DevSecOps - preventive and reactive security controls baked into delivery pipelines.
In my "past life", I've been a robotics engineer. I switched to IT after working on Industrial IoT and Physics High Performance Computing projects at Bosch Rexroth and (as a summer student) at the CERN LHCb experiment, where I received the Moritz Karbach Prize for outstanding contributions.
My superpower is insisting on the highest standards across software development teams - both in how we work (DevSecOps culture) and what we build (production-ready, safe, operations-friendly products). I also genuinely enjoy community building and developer advocacy through public speaking at tech conferences.
I'm passionate about music - I love to explore different aspects of it (theory, genres, folk etc) and discuss / exchange discoveries with my peers. I spend most of my free time playing my guitars & piano, tinkering with my 3D printers or writing some code for my pet projects.
As you might have already guessed, I'm a big nerd.
I regularly speak at Python and cloud conferences across Europe. Proven track record of highly-rated sessions (avg. 4.82/5 across all rated talks, 2022-2026).

Surely one more badge will do the trick.
Some of these have probably expired. I'm not always quick to update this page, so my Credly profile is the source of truth.
