Kamil is a software engineer who has a passion for mobile and game app development. He started programming in high school, which eventually led to studying computer science at Oxford University. Of the apps he's done, he's proudest of a game similar to Clash of Clans and another one like FarmVille. He worked in many roles—from leading teams, unit and UI testing, to making back ends—and he never shies away from taking on any challenge.
