What I'm looking for

I'm open to remote roles worldwide, relocation, or hybrid work in Serbia where I can build scalable backend systems, automate complex workflows, improve performance, and lead integrations and developer mentoring.

I've built accounting automation, customs clearance, lead-generation, and legal platforms at Rank Media Agency using Laravel, Symfony, Redis, RabbitMQ, Docker, and relational and NoSQL databases.

For an internal accounting platform, I automated invoicing for more than 100 clients monthly and reduced accounting workload by 80%. I also built API-based reporting pipelines, payment approval workflows, and financial-record cross-validation.

I designed a REST API for a dynamic form and lead-generation platform that processed 500–600 leads per day through asynchronous queues with under-200ms p95 response time. I've integrated Leadspedia, Ringba, MediaAlpha, Everflow, LeadConduit, Zapier, Mailchimp, Trackdrive, payment gateways, CRM systems, and e-signature services.

Earlier at Fastdev AB, I integrated APIs from more than five banks and financial institutions for a fintech loan aggregation platform. I enjoy improving legacy code, optimizing queries and workflows, and onboarding and mentoring developers through guidance and code reviews.
