Marko Gajšt … Hi there!

Hi, I’m Marko, a Product Engineer from Slovenia.

For the past 10+ years, I’ve been building digital products across startups, enterprise environments, and emerging technology sectors. My work sits at the intersection of engineering, UX, product thinking, and increasingly AI-assisted development.

I enjoy building intuitive digital experiences, connecting engineering with design, and understanding the human behaviors that shape how people use technology. Throughout my career, I’ve worked across enterprise platforms, Web3 products, digital archives, and emerging technologies, collaborating with international teams along the way.

Outside of work, I’m inspired by travel, culture, artistic expression, and the ongoing process of learning and self-growth.
