Jan Bojko
cloud-native full-stack developer

I build web apps and the systems behind them. From Next.js e-commerce or web-apps to Go microservices that run on Kubernetes, with the monitoring and CI/CD pipelines.

About

Four years in, I've shipped a dozen production systems across e-commerce, internal tooling and dashboards. I started as a full-stack developer in TypeScript, React, Next.js; today I'm steering toward cloud-native full-stack development: distributed Go services, Kubernetes, GitOps and observability.

What I enjoy about software engineering is problem-solving, or those moments when an architectural decision pays off months later. I value clean architecture, deliberately defined boundaries, and tools that make life easier for the next person working on the repository.

Selected work

Smart Tracking System

Distributed cloud system simulating real-time telemetry from 50 cargo containers sailing from Busan to Rotterdam. Five Go microservices, event-driven over NATS JetStream, CQRS, clean architecture in every service, full GitOps pipeline (Tekton, ArgoCD), and the complete LGTM observability stack: Loki, Grafana, Tempo, Prometheus. Provisioned end-to-end with Terraform on a local k3d cluster.

Clients

There were absolutely no problems with the collaboration. Communication was always quick, clear, and adapted to my time. I'm extremely satisfied with the final result and the price. The shop was built exactly to my requirements. I can only recommend his services.

Miroslav DvořákOwner
Nxsxnity

I'm very happy with the work, especially the modern look that's up to date, and the functionality: everything is fast and simple, anyone finds what they need. Communication and feedback are the main satisfaction; I know I can rely on him at any time, and the price is very favourable.
