Krzysztof Turowski
@krzysztofturowski
I build and lead engineering organizations that improve delivery, product operations, quality, and time-to-market.
What I'm looking for
I've led engineering and product operations across Wild Alaskan Company, Hedgehog Social, Exatel, CodiLime, Ivanti, and Miratech. At Hedgehog Social, I built an engineering team of 30 developers and 20 supporting teammates, delivering mobile and web products alongside work for Fox News, Fox Sports, Tubi, and others.
I'm focused on building organizations where Agile, DevOps, quality, and people growth improve real delivery outcomes. I use AI tools and LLM agents to automate analysis, unblock teams, and make operational knowledge easier to access.
