Marcin Olichwirowicz

Marcin Olichwirowicz manages engineering teams at Netflix. He views his career as a laboratory for leadership, focusing on how technical and organizational roles inform each other.

Instead of climbing a traditional ladder, Marcin advocates for the career pendulum. He left prior management roles to become a Staff Engineer at Qonto, before swinging back to big tech leadership. This zig-zag path gave him fresh technical confidence and grounded empathy for his teams. He advises engineers on why stepping away from management can generate compound interest for their careers.
