At QED, I'm focused on building a technology practice that delivers sophisticated solutions without unnecessary complexity. We're proving that good engineering isn't about using the most advanced tools, but about choosing the right ones and using them well. By bringing together functional programming practices with practical business needs, we're helping teams develop systems that remain maintainable as they scale. My work involves growing our technical capabilities while ensuring we stay true to fundamentals: clean code, thoughtful architecture, and sustainable development

Strongly Typed began with a simple premise: there's a better way to build software. We've built a practice that demonstrates how functional programming and strong type systems can reduce development time while improving code quality. Our team regularly tackles complex challenges in distributed systems and data processing, delivering solutions that are both powerful and practical.Rather than following tech trends, we focus on fundamentals. This approach has helped us consistently deliver projects on time while maintaining high quality standards. We've built a culture where engineers thrive on solving real problems. The result is a team that consistently delivers robust, maintainable systems that our clients can build upon.

I led a fundamental shift in how we approached technology. Instead of adding more tools and processes, we focused on simplifying our existing systems and practices. The R&D department we built became a testing ground for practical innovation - finding ways to solve complex problems with straightforward solutions.We handled dozens of projects simultaneously, ranging from distributed systems to real-time processing solutions. By keeping our focus on essential functionality and clean architecture, we consistently delivered systems that were both powerful and maintainable. This approach helped us grow from a small development shop to a trusted technology partner for major clients.

At QED, I laid the groundwork for a high-end software design practice that would later become a benchmark. My approach centered on bringing academic rigor and establishing architectural guidelines that emphasized functional programming principles.

My work with Mozilla represented the perfect synthesis of community building and technical innovation. Beyond contributing to core projects like MDN and Firefox OS, I became a bridge between Mozilla's global mission and the local developer community in Croatia. Through workshops, events, and hands-on development sessions, I helped community of open-source contributors and web technology enthusiasts.

As a freelancer, I worked across a broad spectrum of projects that helped shape my approach to software development. Each project brought unique challenges:The Q4U platform required building real-time matching systems that remained stable under load. For Buildercore, we developed a multi-site architecture for real estate management that emphasized simplicity despite complex requirements. Neutrino involved creating data mining tools that processed large amounts of social data efficiently.Phantom gave me experience in building advanced threat detection systems where reliability was crucial. With Gradematic, we tackled document processing and educational assessment, showing how straightforward architectures could handle complex workflows effectively.Each project reinforced the value of keeping things simple - building systems that solve real problems without unnecessary complexity. This period of hands-on development across different domains and technologies proved invaluable in shaping my current approach to technical leadership.

At MiniTech, I got my first real taste of building systems that users directly interact with. Working on the Joomla! platform, I developed a suite of extensions that enhanced social connectivity and user engagement. Each component was designed with simplicity in mind - from a straightforward calendar module to more complex social networking features.The most interesting challenge was building MiniFriendConnect, which required implementing friend-matching algorithms that could scale effectively. This early experience with social networking features and user notification systems taught me valuable lessons about building maintainable features in a complex ecosystem. We kept the interfaces simple while handling complicated background processes efficiently.Other projects included building notification systems, event management, and automated welcome systems - all integrated into the Joomla! CMS. This work gave me firsthand experience in building modular, maintainable systems that other developers could easily extend and modify. Many of these early principles about simplicity and user experience still influence my approach to system design today.

My brief time at Amnesty International gave me my first exposure to working with diverse teams toward a common goal. While the role primarily involved community outreach and recruitment, it taught me valuable lessons about communication and the importance of clear, meaningful messaging.
