Summary

In addition to sharing knowledge and helping other engineers to become better at what they do, I'm an R&D Engineer at Croatian company Infinum, where I'm working with recommendation engines from training them to creating microservices around them so the mobile apps could fetch personalized recommendations. I have experience with computer vision (an innovative technique for licence plate detection on low-resolution cameras) and NLP (master thesis about ULMFiT for Croatian language). On my free time I'm either improving my knowledge by visiting conferences connected to my expertise or I relax by watching or playing sports (mostly tennis or football)
