A noted contributor to computer science in Poland, Kilinski played a pioneering role in the development of electronic computing and digital technology.
In 1948 Antoni worked in the central institutions of the Polish Army, and then also in the Military Technical Academy (WAT), where he headed the Department of Theoretical Electrical Engineering. During this time he also commissioned lectures at the Technical University of Wrocław. In 1951 he was an independent contract worker at the Department of Communication Science University of Warsaw and took over the Chair of Radio, renamed in 1953 the Department of Telecommunications and Broadcasting Structures.
After retiring from the army in 1953, Kilinski devoted himself entirely to work in the Warsaw Polytechnic. The Faculty of Communications organized studies in radio engineering equipment technology. He continued to head the Department of Telecommunication and Broadcasting, while also organizing the Electronic Equipment Technology Department and becoming its first patron.
Kilinski created at the Department of Mechanical Engineering a Department of Experimental Mathematics, whose task was the design and manufacture of electronic equipment—novel at that time—including the production of digital electronic equipment used in atomistics and electronic data processing. The Department also developed the design and technology of electronic digital computers.
