## 👤 ABOUT

```
I'm a full-stack developer and DevOps engineer with 10+ years of experience building
production-grade web applications, SaaS platforms, and cloud infrastructure from the
ground up.

My core stack is Laravel (PHP) + Livewire + Alpine.js on the backend/frontend, paired with Vue.js and React —
but what sets me apart is the ability to own the entire lifecycle: from architecture
and development to server configuration, CI/CD pipelines, containerization, and ongoing DevOps.
I also build cross-platform mobile applications using Laravel Native (iOS & Android).

What I work on every day:
→ Laravel SaaS platforms (multi-tenant, API-first, production-hardened)
→ Laravel Native mobile application development (iOS & Android)
→ AI integration & MCP (Model Context Protocol) development — building intelligent
   agents and LLM-powered features directly into applications
→ Cloud infrastructure on Hetzner (Linux, SSH, Apache/Nginx, cron automation)
→ CI/CD pipelines & automated deployments for 15+ live projects
→ Code reviews, performance optimization, and security hardening
→ REST APIs, database design (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite), and third-party integrations
→ Network configuration, containerization (Docker, LXC), and virtualization
→ Infrastructure monitoring with Grafana & Prometheus

Key projects I've built and maintain:
• WDR Cloud Platform — full-stack SaaS for mobility/fleet management
• FitApp SAAS — fitness tracking platform with multiple tenant subdomains
• Housespilot — property management web application

I manage a portfolio of 20+ live applications across dedicated Hetzner servers with
zero-downtime deployments and automated monitoring.

Currently based in Osijek, Croatia. Open to remote collaboration on challenging
backend, AI, or infrastructure projects.
