About

Kamil Olczyk

Designer and deployment engineer. I work where two worlds meet: the server room and the screen. I know a product from both sides, from the machine that answers to the button you press. That is why I design things that work not only in a mock-up but under real load.

01 — Two worlds

Server and screen

Day to day I deploy infrastructure in data centers: hardware, networking, systems and automation. In parallel I design UX and interfaces.

They rarely meet in one person, so my designs can actually be built and what I build is easy to use.

90 seconds on how I think about motion, interface and decisions: the showreel is below.

02 — What I do

From rack to pixel

  1. Deployments

    I bring servers up in data centers: from provisioning and configuration to testing and monitoring.

  2. Automation

    Whatever can be automated, I automate, so every deployment is repeatable and predictable.

  3. UX and interface

    Flows, structure and screens that make complex tools feel obvious.

  4. Motion

    Product films that show in 90 seconds how something works.

03 — How I work

Three rules

  1. Understand first

    Before I draw or deploy anything, I want to know what problem we are really solving.

  2. One person

    You talk to the person who designs and deploys. Nothing gets handed off.

  3. Simple is good

    The best solution is often the one nobody notices, because it just works.
