About
Software engineer. 5 years in, with backend as my home base, but I'm comfortable wherever a problem leads me. Currently I'm at Verne (part of Rimac Group), working on the backend infrastructure which powers the first commercial robotaxi service in Europe.
I tend to care a lot about things being simple and predictable. The rest I figure out along the way.
When I'm not at a keyboard, I'm usually moving: gym, running, cycling, swimming, padel, hiking. I like keeping busy.
Computer Engineering Master's degree from the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing (FER) in Zagreb.
