Dawid Wijata
Software Engineer
I'm a Software Engineer who likes building complete systems - backend, frontend, and everything in between. My go-to stack is .NET and Angular, and I'm comfortable working on any part of a modern web application.
About me
I've worked on different types of projects, from financial services to tax software, where I've done everything from designing APIs to building accessible interfaces and organizing component architectures. Having this range of experience helps me make smarter technical choices and spot potential issues early.
I care about collaboration, writing code that's easy to understand, and building systems that can handle change. I also like helping teammates improve their skills and being part of technical discussions - code reviews and mentoring are genuinely rewarding parts of my work

CliftonStrengths®
Context®
I gain clearer perspective when I review what led to the present situation-prior events, earlier decisions, and recurring patterns. That helps me explain our direction in a way others can follow, rather than treating the current moment as if it had no history.
Command®
When discussion keeps circling without a conclusion, I am willing to state a direction and accept responsibility for the trade-offs involved. I prefer to decide and refine afterward than to remain indefinitely in doubt.
Relator®
I value depth in a smaller circle of trusted colleagues over a wide network of superficial ties. Collaboration is most effective for me when we share clear goals with people who already understand how I work.
Empathy®
I often sense tension or hesitation in others, sometimes before it has been put into words. I aim to respond in a way that leaves people feeling acknowledged rather than overlooked.
Learner®
Developing competence in something new remains one of the most rewarding aspects of my work, not merely preparation for the task that follows. I am ready to invest in a new tool or domain when that is what the problem requires.
