Hi, I'm Krzysiek Kokot 👋

The world is open to brave and curious people. [Meet me]

I create awesome projects based on experience, shaped by both work and academic background.

Sometimes I share what I learn by giving talks.

Welcome to my blog.

About me

Software Engineer focused on backend (Python and .NET) and AI. Why do clients enjoy working with me? I don't just do my job: solving problems is my passion. It drives me to ask deeper questions and find solutions that fit well and work for the long term.

Experience in high-volume data systems, AI/LLM integration, and cloud services. I learn from books and real-world challenges. I'm constantly learning how to work with people and how our brain works.

Experience

Speaking

Digital Pulse Krakow 2025 conference

Digital Pulse by Jacobs

29 January 2025, Kraków

Challenge accepted. Someone asked me: We want you to give a speech in English, 30 minutes, at our first event. I was terrified. And of course, I said yes. We learn from big challenges, don't we? On 29 January, I had the pleasure of participating as a speaker at the very first "Digital Pulse" event by Jacobs in Kraków. AI agentic memory is becoming a crucial topic. I presented different types of memory we need to consider when designing agent-based systems.

Human: I'm going to Paris.
AI: Nice choice — Paris is great for sightseeing.
Human: Book me a flight.
AI: Which city are you flying to?
Health Caring event speaking

Health and Caring

5 min, internal talk for the whole department

About how to accomplish big tasks and not waste time on small unnecessary things. About priorities and how to find them. Big stones, small stones, and sand represent priorities: the most important, the less important, and everything else. Only the right order lets everything fit into the jar.
