Marcin Stachniuk
From Collibra
I'm a software engineer mainly focused on Java and JVM technologies. I write Clean Code usually using TDD. I appreciate Agile methodologies (because they work), automation of everything and NoSQL solutions. I was a reviewer of the book practicalunittesting.com and organiser of chamberconf.pl. Currently I'm a leader of Wrocław Java User Group wroclaw.jug.pl. I'm a speaker at technical conferences: mstachniuk.github.io/talks, trainer in coding bootcamps and Open Source contributor: shipkit.org. I’m working at Collibra.
In my free time I ride snowboard, splitboard, wakeboard and sometimes skateboard. I also enjoy biking, hip-hop music, traveling and winter swimming.
