What I'm looking for

I'm looking for full-stack and senior software engineering roles, AI engineering or founding engineer opportunities, AI integrations and voice-agent work, and custom development contracts.

I've delivered production software across the stack for seven years, including high-traffic fintech at Bitstamp, where I led frontend and REST API work for a crypto exchange serving 4M+ customers. I contributed to the secure migration of 1M+ users to Robinhood and built Travel Rule APIs and UI used by 100k+ users.

I also build AI products end-to-end, including RAG assistants, voice sales agents, and booking platforms. From a Slovenian rafting company’s Stripe-enabled booking system to production voice receptionists using LiveKit, Claude, Gemini, ElevenLabs, and Twilio, I own the backend, frontend, infrastructure, and AI layer.
