About
I built this site to keep my professional career in one place and to share a few personal side projects. I'm not a big fan of social media - this is where I'd rather tell people who I am and what I do.
I'm {age} years old. I was born in Pula and have lived in Zagreb since my studies in Varaždin. Croatia is my home.
My career
I've worked in commercial software for thirteen years, since 2013. I started as a developer and moved into leading teams, but I still design systems and write code. AI is part of my daily work, for me and for the teams I lead - with clear checks so speed never replaces judgment.
I help companies turn technical complexity into clear direction, reliable platforms, and stronger teams, and I stay close enough to the work that decisions are based on what is really happening.
Along the way I founded Source Craft for freelance and consulting work.
What I bring
I turn new ideas into practical options, not slide decks. I name trade-offs early, trust evidence over opinion, and stay on a problem until the fix holds in production. I'd rather ship a small version, look at the real result, and improve it than debate the perfect plan.
Where do I fit?
I fit Principal Engineer, Engineering Manager, and CTO-track roles where I can:
- Set direction people trust
- Modernize legacy systems and live platforms
- Build prototypes quickly
- Grow capable teams
- Stay hands-on in production
- Bring in AI where it improves real business results
