RAFAŁ MOKROWIECKI / BUSINESS × IT

IT matters when business moves forward.

I build partnerships between the people growing a business and the people building its technology. I combine leadership responsibility with the ability to get into the details of a solution.

Direction. Collaboration. Working solutions.

THE STARTING POINT

What needs to change
in your business?

Greater scale. Smoother operations. Better decisions. A shared goal helps us see where technology can make a difference — and bring the right people into the conversation.

HOW I THINK ABOUT CHANGE

Connect perspectives.
Explore possibilities.

Choose a point. Each belongs to the same conversation about business growth.

01 / STARTING POINT

Business goal

What does the company want to achieve? I start with needs, constraints and priorities. Together, we agree how to recognise the value of the change.

Shared priorities and an intended outcome

02 / STARTING POINT

People and processes

Who uses the solution and who owns the change? I bring business stakeholders, IT teams and users together to agree on how to move forward.

Clear roles and an understanding of the process

03 / STARTING POINT

Systems and data

What needs to improve in the application, integration or data? I assess options, dependencies and opportunities for automation, including possible uses of AI.

A solution matched to the need

04 / STARTING POINT

Review the outcome

Does the solution help people in their daily work? We revisit the goal, gather feedback from users and decide what needs further improvement.

WHERE I CAN ADD VALUE

From setting direction to building a solution.

/01

Business–IT partnership

I help connect business growth plans with technology decisions. Working with business stakeholders and IT teams, I clarify goals, priorities and responsibility for delivery. I support investment decisions, team development and vendor collaboration so that IT supports the direction of the business.

  • Strategy and transformation
  • Business partnership
  • Team development
Discuss your direction for growth
/02

Systems, data and AI

When a system slows work down, data is hard to trust or a process relies on too many manual steps, I help find the cause and choose improvements. I combine ERP, WMS, MES and BI experience with practical SQL Server and automation skills. For AI, I help assess the need, data requirements and how to evaluate an initial use case.

  • SQL Server and automation
  • AI applications

/03

Your business online

Digital workshop · a growing personal interest · selected pilot projects

I enjoy building websites and simple applications and am developing my skills through selected pilot projects. I start by reviewing how clearly the current website presents the business and helps visitors take the next step. From there, I propose a short report, priorities, and improvements or a new website.

  • Website review
  • Clear offer and contact path
  • Websites and prototypes

PORTFOLIO

From an idea to my own solution.

Explore my own project in development: its purpose, the decisions behind it and the current progress.

In development

Website and client collaboration space

I am building my own PL/EN website to present both my professional experience and my services. The next stage is a private space for sharing website proposals and analysis reports with clients.

The local PL/EN website includes an interactive collaboration diagram and two contact paths. The new concept is ready for review; publication and the client space are the next stages.

Explore the project and process
Explore the project and process
Business need
One website for two goals: employment conversations and attracting clients. A later stage will make it easier to share proposals and analyses with individual clients.
My role
I define the needs, choose the design direction and technologies, and approve content and publication. I use AI to help prepare proposals, copy and code.
Prepared
A local Astro + TypeScript website in PL/EN, mobile and desktop layouts, an interactive business–IT diagram, two contact paths, responsive images and a decision journal. Type, build and metadata configuration checks run through GitHub.
Planned
Design implementation, content in Sanity and publication on Cloudflare. Next, authentication and private materials in Supabase, followed by project and feedback workflows. A chat assistant about my experience is an idea under consideration.
How I work
I document needs, decisions and verification results. Code changes go through branches and pull requests. AI helps prepare the work, while I decide what gets published.

ABOUT

Seeing the whole. Understanding the detail.

Over more than 20 years, I have moved from building systems and working with data to leading IT. That lets me discuss business direction with executives and investigate a problem with the technical team. I am most interested in where those perspectives meet.

From a business need to a plan of action

I can help turn business needs into IT priorities, improve systems and data, or assess an AI use case. We can start with a specific problem or a broader direction for development. I also take on selected website projects through my developing digital workshop.
