TESTIMONIALS

What my clients and coworkers say about me.

It's rare to find a developer so human-focused as Ludwik. In our hiring process, we were prioritizing candidates who emphasized our three corporate values: Generosity, Proactivity, and Problem-Solving. Ludwik was a consistent embodiment of all three of these values.

He is a professional programmer with a huge web applications knowledge. During work Ludwik shows big involvement and ability to work under the time pressure. Personally, he is a good friend who always has time to help. I can definitely recommend Ludwik as a Senior PHP Developer or Team Leader.

Ludwik did an exceptional job on recent projects. He is very productive and he possesses a vast knowledge of PHP. It was always a pleasure to discuss technical challenges with him as he was able to quickly provide meaningful arguments for one solution or another and at the same time keep respect for the opinions of others.

It has been a great experience to work with Ludwik. He has been a true star. He likes when the job is done the right way – no shortcuts or cutting cornes. He is very diligent and puts extra effort each step of the way. Great programmer and communicator. An ultimate pleasure to work with - both professionally and personally.
