# Jakub Janczyk
Software engineer at Help Scout focused on bulletproof testing in the AI era.

## About

Jakub Janczyk builds software and leads engineering teams at Help Scout. He focuses on creating practical products and figuring out how developers can actually collaborate better.

Lately, his work centers on the realities of AI-assisted development. He argues that as AI generates more code, high-quality automated tests are the only reliable way to maintain fast, safe feedback loops and catch fragile systems before they break.

When he finally steps away from his keyboard, he is usually busy wrangling his two kids.
