03 — Recommendations

What people I’ve shipped with say.

Wojtek is the best person I hired, ever. He is obsessed with applying structure to chaos — be it via process design or careful and deliberate communication. His calm demeanor is a great asset, but it actually hides a very competitive nature and a need for speed in execution. He is an expert in User Experience and Product Design, with a very analytical approach to both generating and evaluating user insights.

Wojtek consistently demonstrated an exceptional level of effort and energy in the product designer role at Housecall Pro. The dedication to achieving excellence was evident in Wojtek’s work, and I am grateful for the valuable contributions Wojtek made to our team. Working with Wojtek has been a pleasure, always exemplifying professionalism and unwavering commitment.

I worked with Wojtek during my first year at Housecall Pro and he is one of the most organized and thorough designers I have worked with. He set a standard for the rest of the design team in terms of user journeys and async work. He goes into the depths of a problem and fully analyzes it before tackling flows that best suit the user’s solution.

You can take one look at Wojtek’s design files and realize that, as a designer, you’re falling short in some way. His files are incredibly clean, organized, and easy to understand. When Wojtek joined the team, his attention to detail blew me away and I instantly knew that I needed to step up my game.

I’ve worked with Wojtek for several months and I can confidently recommend his work. Wojtek’s a great team player, always ready to help us by consulting on design or product features. He took very big ownership of his work and demonstrated amazing organizational skills and an impressive level of emotional intelligence.

I highly recommend Wojtek as a Product Designer. He has a deep understanding of user needs and knows how to design products that meet and exceed their expectations. His ability to translate complex ideas into simple, elegant designs is truly remarkable. Excellent team player and collaborator.

Wojtek is the most well-organized designer I have ever had the pleasure to work with. His design documentation is incredibly thorough and meticulous, and served as an example for all product designers on the team. On many occasions, his analytical approach helped me look at the problem from an entirely different perspective.

I worked with Wojtek on a fintech product for over a year. He had a great understanding of his domain and, despite many challenges, handled them well. Wojtek has an analytical approach and it shows — his work is thorough and detailed. Excellent at communication and planning. Funny, easy-going, and always open to discussion.
