About

Got a wild idea? 💡
You bring the vision, I’ll bring the magic!
Let’s make it real!! 🚀

I’m Leon Nowakowski, a full-stack AI-focused web and mobile developer with 6+ years of experience building scalable SaaS platforms, cross-platform applications, and practical AI-powered products. I combine strong engineering skills with product-minded thinking—turning ideas into production-ready systems using modern React/Next.js, Node.js, Python, and mobile development with React Native, Flutter, and native iOS/Android.

Across my roles, I’ve integrated LLMs, built RAG and retrieval pipelines, and delivered AI agents and automation workflows that improve real business outcomes. I’ve led technical implementation across authentication, billing, dashboards, cloud deployments (AWS/GCP), and data modeling, while partnering closely with product/design teams to ship fast and maintain reliable architectures.
