Tomasz Prabucki | Software Engineer

About Me

I'm a 25 year old software developer & IT enthusiast, born in Poland, living in Coventry, UK, who recently graduated from Coventry University.

Since childhood I've been cursed with fascination over anything tech-related. I absolutely love everything IT: from UI/UX design, to networking, mobile & web development, sys-administration etc. Over the years, this has resulted in many, more or less succesful, tinkering projects of mine. Some of those I hope to share with you within this small portfolio website, so you can get to know me a bit better, both professionally and in private.

Beyond work, I'm an easy-going person, who tries to live in harmony with others. I try to stay curious and open to the world.

Profile

My developer career has taken me through various, diverse projects, industries and teams, giving me a solid understanding of a great deal of tools. I'm capable of designing and implementing websites, desktop/mobile apps on almost every platform, from start to finish.

"I have known Tomasz since September 2015 in my capacity as a Lecturer in Computer Science at Coventry University. Tomasz excelled in almost every module in his course and proved to be particularly strong in programming. He works very well individually, but also as part of the team. He is very helpful to other fellow students and always willing to extend his knowledge on any topic.
If Tomasz's performance in my class is any indication of his performance in the future, he will be a positive addition to any team!"

Nikola DonchevSenior Software Engineer

"I had the pleasure of working with Tom on several side projects. Not only is he a great engineer, he's also a fantastic team member to work with - punctual, active, always open for a discussion. He isn't afraid to admit a mistake when there is one. His Pull Requests are always stellar, code well-commented and code reviews insightful.
When Stack Overflow wasn't cutting it, he was always there to aid me with tackling the problem."

Bartłomiej JarzembińskiDeep Learning Validation Engineer

"I have known Tom for over 12 years as my close friend. Although I haven't had a chance to work with him professionally yet, I can vouch for his good character and passion for IT. He is a genuinely creative guy who loves what he's doing and does it really well."

After Work?

Eventually, we are all humans. Everyone’s gotta put the computer down.

If you wanna keep it business only, scroll no further.

But if you wanna know me a lil bit better from a non-techie side, scroll down for some things I do on the side.

Travelling

countries

continents

12%

of the world

My #1 non-tech passion and one of the main goals in life is to study the world and its vast cultures. I feel like the world has so much to offer and we could all benefit from gaining a bit broader perspective, especially during the times that beg for some tolerance.

Photography

Dealing with design and working with Adobe software, it's fair to assume I'm also a fan of snapping some amateur shots on the side.

I've never been a professional photographer, nor I intend to become one, but I do take joy in capturing what I personally consider beautiful. Combined with my trips, I believe photos make for a far better souvenir than any souvenir purchases.

I consider myself a near-religious cinemagoer and popcorn devourer. Although movie production is an industry I never got a chance to be part of, I still look in ave at good script and cinematography.

Travelling here and there has allowed me to capture some nice shots, which I then love to tinker with in Adobe Premiere or After Effects.
