About me

Piotr Olszewski, online as asmie. A few words about the person on the other side of the screen.

It started with curiosity.

I started programming in the 1990s with Pascal and Basic, then moved on to C/C++ and computer security. Languages and tools have changed, but the urge to look under the hood has stayed.

I’m lucky to do for a living what I also enjoy in my own time. Computers are only part of the story, though: there’s astronomy and physics, gaming, genealogy and geocaching. From algorithms to old records, I enjoy searching, connecting the dots and discovering.

What draws me in

Work

My path has taken me from embedded systems and cybersecurity to architecture and leading teams. Today I’m an Engineering Manager at Eiger and run TechRunes, working on AI, agentic engineering and blockchain, among other things.

Learning

I graduated in computer science from Częstochowa University of Technology and later undertook doctoral studies at the Military University of Technology in Warsaw. My master’s thesis explored distributed cryptanalysis.

Along the way

I’ve also earned certifications in programming, cloud computing, blockchain and management. The dates and full list are on LinkedIn; here, I leave more room for my interests.
