Your apps, at peak performance

I design, build and maintain web applications, internal systems and cloud infrastructure that grow with your business – reliable, secure, and ready to scale when you need them to. If you’re looking for someone to take care of your project end-to-end...

What I do

Automation & AI

I automate repetitive processes and apply AI where it genuinely speeds up your team's work.

Infrastructure

I set up and maintain infrastructure (in the cloud or on your own servers) with monitoring and security built in as standard.

& more with my team

For larger projects, I work with front-end and mobile devs, a tester and a project manager. One team, handling everything end-to-end.

About me

Photo of Andrzej Kocjan

I have worked in IT for well over a decade, and since 2021 I have specialized in building web applications, mainly in Python. Before that I spent four years as a network and systems administrator, which is why I am just as at ease with the infrastructure the application runs on. I take care of deployments, backups, monitoring and security. Since 2023 I have run my own business. I handle smaller projects end-to-end, from the production environment through the backend to the interface, while in larger ones I am mainly responsible for the backend and CI/CD.

Andrzej Kocjan - an IT and GIS specialist - did a great deal for Karkonosze National Park over almost four years. Thanks to Andrzej Kocjan's IT knowledge and commitment, we were able to take the computerisation of Karkonosze National Park to a higher level. His very good command of Python deserves particular mention, as does his grasp of the tools used to configure computer networks and servers. He is very much at home in GIS - he set up ArcGIS Enterprise, on which the park's geoportal and many other applications are based. He made decisions and carried out tasks independently, was eager to keep developing and solved IT problems on his own. I recommend working with Andrzej Kocjan!
