Hello.

My name is Jacek Zakowicz and I am a senior software engineer currently based in the beautiful and sunny heart of Catalonia - Barcelona.

I've been doing this for close to two decades — my career began during the golden years of the Flash era, giving me a particular perspective on the evolution of web development.

Currently, I'm working as a Senior Software Engineer at New Relic — an enterprise observability SaaS platform — on the data exploration team, dedicated to empowering users with intuitive tools for discovering insights within complex observability datasets, using modern web technologies including React and TypeScript.

Prior to my current role, I had the privilege of collaborating on web projects with exceptionally talented teams at top-tier local agencies like Elespacio and Click5, as well as world-renowned agencies including 14islands, North Kingdom, and Fantasy Interactive.

I've delivered exceptional work for prestigious clients including:
Adidas, Sony, Google, HTC, CBS, History Channel, BBC, Range Rover, Porsche, Skaffold, Coca-Cola, General Electric, Nespresso, SCOTT USA, Ecco, and Martini.

Projects I've worked on have received multiple industry awards:
WEBBY PCA, FWA SOTM, FWA SOTD, and AWWWARDS SOTD.

Stuff I'm we're
building.

These days I'm in fairly continuous conversation with Claude — through the day job, the kitchen table, and the occasional 1am "just one more thing".
I think of it less as magic and more as a multiplier: especially good at sharpening tooling and pulling once-out-of-reach work closer. An enabler, if we're picking the corporate word.
