I've had the pleasure of knowing Damian in a mentor capacity, having had him as a team lead in my early career. We've been working together regularly, discussing week-to-week challenges, brainstorming ideas, and implementing solutions. Damian's exceptional abilities to build and manage high-performing teams, grow individuals, and influence stakeholders within the IT spectrum are truly impressive. His deep understanding of these aspects is remarkable. I appreciate his input and the process we've established, where we can test our ideas, refine them, and adapt, creating a potent feedback loop.

About me

Seasoned Engineering Leader and a technology enthusiast who focuses on solving problems and making an impact. As Head of Engineering at OLX Group, I lead a team of approximately 30 engineers within the Seekers Tribe, dedicated to delivering search capabilities that surpass industry standards. Grew the team from a handful of engineers to over 90, scaling our internal processes and architecture to match the new scale. Significantly upgraded our technology stack, transitioning large portions of our legacy monolith to an event-driven, distributed architecture. As a manager, I am passionate about designing processes and frameworks that empower teams to achieve technical and operational excellence while giving them the creative autonomy they need. In my free time, I share my thoughts and experiences on the ManagerStories blog.
