I am Ian Barczewski

I am Ian Barczewski, pronounced Bar-chez-ski. I am a software engineer with 14 years of experience in JavaScript, Typescript, CSS, C#, mySQL, MongoDB, Kotlin, React, and am well versed in test-driven development, Agile, and pair programming.

In the past six years as a tech lead, I have lead multiple teams, ranging from small teams of four who rebuilt a monolith from the ground up to a large team of 50 who created a greenfield solution for a major national company. I advocate for autonomy across the teams that I lead, deconstructing knowledge silos, and making sure that everyone has an equal say in every discussion.

My passion lies in crafting accessible, user-friendly, and lightning-fast experiences. I have worked with a wide range of clients, from companies who were still in the startup phase to Fortune 500 companies. I would love to hear from you.
