Recommendations
Mike Pilawski
David is a great technology leader and an engineering manager. He is a strong architect capable of thinking through complex architectural choices and arriving at simple and reliable solutions. He can take large, complex projects, identify key risks and direct the team through milestones to completion. He is also a great manager who deeply cares for his team and invests time to help his team members grow.
It was a real privilege working with David and I hope I will have the opportunity to do it again.
