Career after WIMiO: Piotr Jędrzejewski [ALUMNUS PROFILE]
Piotr Jędrzejewski is a graduate of Mechanical Engineering from the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Ship Technology at Gdańsk University of Technology. He specialized in computer-aided design and operation of machinery and now works as a technical support and product development engineer in the R&D Department at Hydropress, the company he has been with since the very beginning of his career.
He began by designing hydraulic systems, selecting individual components, and supporting the sales department. For him, the first stage of professional life after graduation is a time of intensive learning—when theoretical knowledge and skills gained during studies are complemented by the practical realities of engineering work. A major milestone came with his involvement in implementing a new ERP system. Being part of the implementation team gave Piotr insight into resource management within the company and broadened his understanding of commercial operations.

TECoNaut: The “Forgotten” Yacht Set for a New Life – Here’s What the Interior Will Look Like
It never set sail and spent over a decade sitting in a garden under a tarp. The small MicroPolo yacht, designed in the 1980s by Dr. Jacek Centkowski and Dr. Jan Młynarczyk, is now getting a new “eco-life” as part of the TECoNaut project.
As a TECoNaut project partner, Gdańsk University of Technology aims to show that sustainable sailing is about more than just modern materials and eco-friendly propulsion. It's also about giving a second life to boats that have been forgotten—whether left to deteriorate in marinas or abandoned behind someone’s home.
