Architecting secure decentralized systems and leading engineering teams from Ljubljana, Slovenia.

About

I'm a technology leader with nearly a decade of experience spanning system administration, full-stack development, and blockchain engineering. I specialize in building secure, scalable decentralized applications and leading engineering teams.

Currently serving as Chief Technology Officer, I lead cross-functional teams in delivering production-grade blockchain solutions. My work spans smart contract architecture, security auditing, and front-end integration for decentralized applications.

Before moving into blockchain, I built my foundation in system engineering and IT infrastructure — experience that informs how I approach reliability, security, and operational excellence in everything I build.
