Hi, I'm Zlatko!

At work, I am a software developer and architect with strong focus on JavaScript. I'm also an instructor, trainer, coach and mentor, helping other developers "git gud".

Outside of work, I am also a software developer. But I am also a photographer, and sometimes I write.

A big part of what I am is also a family person, a father to two amazing kids and a beautiful and smart wife.

To see what I am doing now, I occassionally update the now page, and if you want to know more about me, check out my curriculum vitae or my contact page, which lists my convencional and "social" contact info.

Current job

I have started a new role in 2023 at Climedo Health. My job is to help the engineering team manage the platform by building more scalable software. I'm a JavaScript expert, with strong focus on Node.js and cloud platforms, and use this expertise to steer the team toward more scalable software and more rugged development process.

Things I like doing

I have a lot of interests, and here are some of them.

• Most of my day revolves around my work. So, of course I do a lot of software-related things.
• I have a family - my incredible wife and my two sons. I spend a lot of time with them.
• I like doing photography for a hobby. I have fun doing that
• I like music, I’ve tried to teach myself guitar, and I’ve sang in some vocal ensambles in the past.
• I like playing computer games, in fact that’s how I got into doing computer stuff for a living.

Things I've made before

I have a wide spectrum of experiences in my life, mostly in working career. I’ve:

• “stolen” a whole 17-person accounting department for the company I’ve worked at,
• connected cars to Internet, and developed mobile in-car payments systems,
• trained a lot of people, from teaching kids English and maths, to teaching very smart people some software things,
• spoken on local and international conferences,
• developed all kinds of other software projects, from high-performance ad servers, social media products, web and web payments, tourism and fashion portals, self-help systems, games and other software.
