About Me
Information
Hello, and welcome to my website! My name is Kacper Burza — a Software Developer based in Toronto, Ontario. I graduated from Toronto Metropolitan University with a degree in Computer Engineering and work on enterprise-grade applications across the full stack. I am passionate about building functional, efficient, and modern software — spanning front-end and back-end development, cloud infrastructure, and AI-assisted tooling.
I have worked on full-stack projects using Java Spring Boot, React, Next.js, FastAPI, AWS, and Microsoft Azure, including production deployments across Kubernetes clusters on GCP and Azure. I actively integrate large language models into my development workflow, working with tools like Claude Code, OpenAI GPT, and Gemini for everything from code generation and debugging to building LLM-powered features in applications.
I thrive in collaborative, cross-functional environments using Agile/Scrum methodologies. Fluent in both English and Polish, I'm proficient across a wide range of languages including JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, Python, C/C++, and SQL.
Thank you for visiting my website! Feel free to explore my work, and don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or would like to discuss potential collaborations.
