Skills & Technologies

I build digital products using TypeScript, React, Svelte, Next.js, Vite, Tailwind, CSS, Solid.js, Astro, Tauri, Electron, and Progressive Web Apps.

My backend experience includes Node.js, Fastify, Express, Python, Bash, REST APIs, WebSockets, GraphQL, JWT, OAuth, OpenAPI, and webhooks.

I integrate LLMs, Agentic Workflows, AI-assisted development, Claude, and Codex into my engineering and product workflow.

My product work combines Figma, Product Discovery, design systems, and UX research.

I have extensive experience building Web3 applications and dApps, alongside infrastructure with AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Storage, Git, GitHub, GitLab, Docker, and Linux.

Earlier in my career, I also worked with PHP, SQL, and Angular.

I speak Slovene natively, English professionally, and I'm currently learning Russian.

I believe the best products emerge from simplicity, clarity, minimalism, and openness.

Outside of work, I’m inspired by travel, cultural exploration, artistic expression, and continuous learning.

I enjoy learning languages, attending UX meetups and conferences, reading and participating in book clubs, journaling, music, woodworking, and interior design.
