Cillers Hackathon Podcast - Grzegorz Szczepanik

  • Summary

  • Meet Grzegorz Szczepanik, Senior Software Engineer at IBM

    Grzegorz Szczepanik is a Senior Software Engineer at IBM. In his early career, he co-founded a small ISP company with friends before joining a game development company, where he spent seven enriching years. Since 2013, he has been with IBM, where his passion for innovation has led to authoring over 40 granted patents. Grzegorz describes himself more as a generalist than a specialist, with a keen interest in history and society beyond the IT world.

    In this episode, we discuss "Innovation Hackathons," a special kind of hackathon developed by IBM in Poland. These events are not focused on coding but rather encourage participants to step back and brainstorm solutions to persistent problems that haven’t been addressed in day-to-day projects.

    We also delve into Grzegorz’s top tips for increasing software development velocity: do something productive every day, keep meetings brief (about 15 minutes), and jot down a single sentence at the end of each day summarizing what you have accomplished. Additionally, he shares valuable advice on how to expedite mundane yet essential projects.
