// ABOUT

Szymon Paluch

I co-founded Riot Agency, a digital agency later acquired by Diagnostyka, Poland's largest lab network.

At uPacjenta I was CTO and helped build the telehealth platform and its in-house tech team.

At Golem Network, as Head of Strategy & Product, I led strategy and positioning for decentralised compute for AI and worked alongside the CPO and CTO on product direction.

Now I help funded startups and enterprises ship AI without the consulting bullshit.
