Krzysztof Maziarka · Softwerk
I’ve been writing software for almost 20 years. Through Softwerk I work as a B2B contractor and build my own products: Caravaneo and VanDash.
Day to day I write functional Scala and design microservices with Cats, Fs2, Http4s, Tapir, sttp and Circe.
I’ve spent years working with map data: OpenStreetMap, Overpass, PostGIS and Elasticsearch, and with the infrastructure it all runs on: Kubernetes, Kafka and CI/CD.
I’m fully fluent with AI in the loop — both as a daily tool and as product engineering. On Caravaneo I run self-hosted LLMs (llama.cpp), turn natural-language prompts into map filters, and ship a multi-turn AI agent with session state. Offline pipelines build camp summaries and aspect scores; NER and translation sit in the same stack (GLiNER, NLLB).
At work and on side projects I build with Claude and Cursor every day — prompts, agents, reviews, the whole workflow. That skillset matters as much as the language stack now.
Softwerk is how I invoice B2B work (since 2011) and ship my own products. Early on that also meant iOS apps and websites.
After hours I do CAD, 3D printing, electronics and welding, and keep rebuilding my camper van.
Scala backend for e‑commerce products in the BigCommerce ecosystem.
Almost eight years on location-based mobile games built on map data, including Monopoly World. Scala microservices, OSM and Overpass data processing, load testing and deployment automation.
B2B contracting and my own products: Caravaneo and VanDash. Earlier work includes Synerise and TVN, as a developer and team lead.
A map and search engine for campsites across Europe — filters, several languages, and an AI agent that turns free-text prompts into map state. Self-hosted LLM for search intent, offline summaries, the full stack on my own VPS (API, PostGIS, tiles, nginx).
Telemetry for an off‑grid camper: sensors linked over ESP‑NOW, a dashboard on the central unit, and custom PCBs and firmware.
Happy to talk about B2B work, Caravaneo, VanDash, agents and LLMs, or anything else. LinkedIn is the fastest way to reach me.
