About
I build APIs, and I automate the busywork around them.
I am based in Belgrade and work remotely. Most of my time goes into PHP (Laravel and Symfony), Go, and Python. Vue, TypeScript, and Tailwind cover the frontend when I own that slice too. A growing part of the work is AI automation: bulk CMS tagging and metadata, draft generation, document extraction from PDFs and email, support-ticket routing, report writing, and the other copy-paste loops that eat a week. I like small teams, sharp product questions, and code that stays readable after the launch week is over.

Timeline
How I got here
2026
Independent and freelance
Taking on backend product work and AI automation: APIs, data models, and replacing repetitive CMS and ops tasks with tools that actually run in production.
2023
Services in production
Owned Laravel and Go services end to end. Queues, auth, Postgres, and features that had to survive past the merge.
2021
PHP in real products
Shipped Symfony and Laravel backends for client teams. Learned how boring, tested code saves time later.
2018
Started building for the web
First paid sites and internal tools. PHP, SQL, and enough frontend to get a product in front of people.
