Hello, I'm

Rafał Kaliszczuk

Data Engineer @ Booksy who turns messy data into systems that actually make sense.

About Me

I'm a Data Engineer. I build the unglamorous plumbing - pipelines, warehouses, the stuff that lets other people do the interesting work - and I care about making it easy to use and hard to break.

At Booksy, that means dbt, Airflow, BigQuery and Terraform behind a global beauty marketplace. Most days are small decisions: how an event becomes a model, how a model becomes a dashboard, and how none of it wakes someone up at 2am.

When I'm not shipping dbt models or untangling Airflow DAGs, you'll likely find me on a Padel court or playing Spikeball.
