Leszek Pietrzak
Senior Frontend DeveloperLeszek Pietrzak
Warsaw, PolandLeszek is an empathic misanthrope, "a concerned human being", you might say. Looking at the future of earthlings (clearly not very promising), they are gladly pouring their lifelong experience as a unicorn into this meaningful and friendly project. Some of the things that drive them professionally are: observing processes, finding understanding, and bringing order. And converting tabs to spaces.
