about me
I'm Michal — a developer and project lead based in the UK, with close to a decade of experience across software engineering, devops, and project management. By day I work in sales for a UK telco; outside of that I gravitate toward work that's technically interesting and genuinely useful. I try to create novel solutions to problems I care about, and I have a soft spot for projects that are a little weird or unconventional.
My main languages are Rust, Gleam, and Python. I've also done some work in OCaml. Outside of code I've contributed to game modding projects and helped run small creative collaborations, so I'm comfortable bridging technical and non-technical work.
outside of work
I play guitar, though not as much as I'd like. I have a soft spot for birds of all kinds, and keep a cockatoo. I'm also colour-blind, which occasionally makes CSS and design an adventure.
where to find me
I don't really do social media. The best places to reach me are GitHub for code, Discord at @mchal_ for everything else, or just email at me@mchal.lol.
See how this site looks to me with adjusted colours.
