Jakub Piotrowski

I’m a hands-on enthusiast with a passion for reverse engineering, 3D design, and classic car restoration.

Over the years, I’ve built a unique set of skills through personal projects, professional experience, and a strong curiosity for how things work.
Whether it’s rebuilding engines, designing custom parts, or teaching others through my online content, I thrive on problem-solving and creating practical solutions.

While I don’t have a formal engineering title, I’m deeply motivated to learn, improve, and tackle new challenges in technical fields.

My goal is to combine my practical expertise with creative thinking to contribute to innovative projects and meaningful solutions.

Language-Related Skills

  • Since the age of 15, English has been my primary language for online research (with the exception of cooking recipes). Starting at 24, I began using English professionally due to the international nature of my workplaces. Since 2020, English has also become my main language in daily life, as it’s the language I speak with my wife. My native language, Polish, is now mostly reserved for communication with my family.

  • Between 2021 and 2022, I dedicated significant time to learning Swedish on my own, studying intensively and attending at least one online lesson per week. I currently enjoy learning languages as both a hobby and a mental exercise, with Japanese being one of my ongoing projects.
