Hi, I’m Karol.

I build things that run unattended.

Most of my work lives at the intersection of cloud infrastructure and automation: orchestrating Kubernetes clusters at scale, wiring GitOps pipelines, and designing systems that stay healthy long after I close the laptop.

By day I’m a Software Engineer at Dynatrace, where the problems tend to look like “make this petabyte-scale platform faster, more observable, and harder to break.” Before Dynatrace I spent time at Intel on the Autonomous Vehicle Data Center platform — building authentication and authorization for the kind of infrastructure that has to work even when nothing else does.

Off the clock I keep a small fleet of self-hosted services running on Mikrus — a hobbyist VPS provider that punches well above its weight. That includes OpenClaw, an AI agent runtime I help maintain, plus a private Hindsight memory layer that ties it all together.

If something I wrote here is useful, fork it. If something is wrong, tell me.
