software developer based in belgrade. been writing code professionally since 2013 — backend, frontend, and whatever sits between them. master’s in informatics and computing from singidunum university.
currently at 3ap, mostly on frontends for swiss enterprise clients (axa, swica, zhaw). before that, five years on payments and registration flows at gvc/entain, and before that, four years on insurance websites and internal tools at dunav osiguranje.
comfortable across the stack: react / next / vue on the front, spring boot / .net / wordpress on the back, openshift / docker / github actions to ship it. see projects ↓.
outside of work i make electronic music as Street of Crocodiles (SOC) — mostly instrumental, somewhere between ambient, techno, and synthwave. started in 2010, came at it from a background as a guitar and bass player. see music ↓.
