I'm Darjan, a Senior Full-Stack Product Engineer who's spent the last 6+ years building SaaS products for US and European startups.

I turn ideas into products people actually pay to use. I've independently built and launched commercial software, handling everything from architecture and UI/UX to development, SEO, payments, analytics, and customer support.

My recent desktop micro tool that I took from idea to first paying customer in 4 days. I identified a niche problem around new product launch and built a Windows desktop utility in just a few days. Through SEO, community marketing, and continuous product iteration, it grew to 1,400+ users, 860+ registered accounts, 161+ paying customers, and over $1,500 in revenue in 1 month. Along the way I processed 17,000+ automated user actions, saving users an estimated 2,100+ hours while continuously improving the conversion funnel through analytics and pricing experiments.

Before that, I built CloudsForge in Q1 of this year, an Electron desktop application that provisions cloud GPUs and orchestrates open-source AI video generation models through a single interface, eliminating the complexity of infrastructure, environments, and manual setup.

I'm Darjan, a developer who has spent the last 6+ years building SaaS products for US and European startups.

I've shipped hundreds of thousands of lines of production code across recruiting, HR, equity management, and AI products. Before AI-assisted development existed, I learned how to build software the hard way. Today I combine that engineering foundation with AI tools to ship faster, cleaner, and more maintainable products.

In Q2 of this year I built CloudsForge, desktop application that lets creators run open-source AI video generation models on rented cloud GPUs without dealing with infrastructure, environments, or setup. I took it from idea to production in roughly two months, handling architecture, UI/UX, Electron, React, Node.js, cloud orchestration, deployment, documentation, and onboarding.

Location: Bosnia and Herzegovina (CET) - but used to working and overlaping with US timezones
