About me

I'm Yacek Novak, a senior manager for corporate clients and complex project deliveries. I specialize in optimizing procurement budgets for server and network equipment, helping businesses get maximum performance for every dollar invested.

My background

I'm from Wroclaw — Poland's largest technology hub. I earned my base engineering degree at Wroclaw University of Science and Technology, then continued with a master's degree in China at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, where I studied global supply chain management and telecommunications technology.

Polish, English and Chinese are my working languages. Combined with European business drive, this makes me a strong negotiator: I find non-standard solutions where standard supply channels fail.

My expertise and focus

• Server solutions and data centers. I select and configure racks based on corporate platforms (including Dell PowerEdge-class solutions) for high-load databases and cloud services.
• Procurement budget optimization. I find alternatives and direct factory configurations that cut infrastructure total cost of ownership without losing reliability.
• Complex and urgent deliveries. When equipment must be in the rack in weeks, not months, I organize express shipping and work around congested channels.
• Network infrastructure. I comprehensively equip offices and industrial sites with switches, routers and perimeter security systems.

My approach to clients

• Focus on commercial results. I understand the client's business logic and always offer several specification options for different budgets.
• Tough negotiations with vendors. I use my knowledge of Chinese business culture and direct factory contacts to win priority dispatch and maximum discounts for my clients.
• Personal accountability. I carry the deal from the first call until the equipment is racked at the customer's site.
