PIOTR CIESIELSKI

Mobile apps developer, web designer

Hi, i'm Piotr. Welcome to my personal website. For over 25 years I am fascinated by information technologies. Especially the Internet and mobile. For more than 15 years dealing with them professionally. I specialize in mobile technologies, particularly in building applications for smartphones, smartwatches, tablets and other mobile devices, and the design and development of web-based solutions. Computers dominate almost all my life. Almost, because in addition to computer science, I also have a family and three cool kids. And no, I do not talk to them in Java and do not read them a bedtime in Swift code. They prefer a fairy tales :)

Senior mobile apps developer

Period: 2013-present

Building mobile applications and linking them with web technologies now is my everyday life. In the meantime on the market settles a new class of devices - smartwatches and other wearables. Again is something to fascinate and to develop stuff. This work never ends :)
Mobile apps developer

Period: 2010-2013

The mobile market is growing in strength. Symbian goes into oblivion. On the battlefield stays only two major players: Android and IOS. Windows Phone clearly looking for identity. The development time with the mobile platforms is a period of hard work and develop new passions associated with mobile operating systems. Several hundred native mobile applications, services related to Internet technologies, sustainable development.

And I become co-owner of the Entera company and get under the care of a new department - mobile technologies.
Senior web designer

Period: 2010-2008

Few successful projects and i was promoted to Senior Web Designer. My web designers team works for many corporations and marks. For me personally, the new role is the challenge of coordinating and managing sometimes very large projects and often managing a team of very creative people, which in itself is an interesting experience - many different characters, temperaments, art people, tech people... In our eyes are born the new revolution in computing - mobile devices are becoming commonplace.
Web designer

Period: 2008-2006

Good knowledge of HTML, CSS, Java Script, PHP, C, and some skills in Photoshop and other Adobe production tools have allowed me to develop web designer skills in a small, newly established web designers studio, called Entera, in Gdansk, with which I am still bound. In addition to graphics and programming achievements to build new projects for our clients this work has allowed me to develop skills in a new, still young discipline, popularly known as "web usability" - in professional language: Information Architecture.
Head of IT

Period: 2006-2001

After a promotion to the head of the IT department, managing a team has become my everyday life. However, work involving more on being a manager, who decides on purchases new computers and software, and manage the work of others, after a some time began to diverge from my interests in practical computer science. Personally more enjoys me programming languages, as waiting for the next series of PCs and Macs and watch the budget. HTML, PHP, and C is much more interesting :)
IT specialist

Period: 2001-1998

My professional adventure with IT technologies begins in 1998, just after college. First work as Junior IT specialist in international publishing Group PolskaPresse. You know - cables, desktop PC and permanently crashing Windows 95/98. In the other site - macs with os 8 and 9 and its unstable plugins. Today, this is the prehistory of computing...

Working in a team a few staff serving more than 1,200 computers, which often had to be up to date to solve the problems of users, or write code snippets to improve networking work, made me a different view than are typically presents college graduates, and to whom I am loyal to this day - computer science is not art for art. Is a powerful, but still only a tool, whose task is to make the user's life easier and his work more efficient.
