Hi there!

I help companies run tighter projects, ship better products and bridge product strategy and delivery execution – combining 15+ years of hands-on IT delivery with the business discipline of running my own company.

My career has taken me across some of the most demanding corners of the software industry: iGaming, telecom infrastructure, industrial IoT, FinTech & InsurTech, ERP consulting, and digital publishing & marketing. What connects them isn’t the sector — it’s the challenge. Complex products, regulated environments, cross-border teams, and the constant need to bridge engineering execution with business strategy.

At Comtrade Gaming I led delivery of multi-million EUR online gaming software with a 20+ person engineering team. At Aviat Networks I directed a €1M+ R&D hub expansion and implemented SSDLC governance for a Slovenian engineering center reporting to US headquarters and VPs. At Citadela I was Head of Development with full P&L accountability, reporting directly to CPO and CTO. Throughout, I’ve operated both as the technical decision-maker and the person responsible for people, process, and delivery outcomes.

I work best in environments where someone needs to own the whole picture — technical direction, team health, stakeholder alignment, and operational execution — without needing to be managed through it.
Based in Ljubljana. Open to roles across Slovenia and the EU or Remote.

My approach:
Trust, but verify. I give teams the autonomy to do their best work, and I stay close enough to the details to catch problems before they become crises.
