Hands-on support
Hi all, I’m a self-taught senior software developer who loves coding, learning, and mentoring. I switched careers in 2017, after working as a computer technician for 8 years. It was the best decision of my life!
As a full-stack developer, I have:
- Worked on various projects using React, React Native, Node.js, Typescript, PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, GraphQL, and AWS.
- Delivered high-quality software solutions for clients from different industries such as tourism, airline, insurance, and healthcare.
- Improved the performance, usability, and security of existing applications.
- Collaborated with other developers, designers, and stakeholders using agile methodologies.
I love learning new things and staying up-to-date with the latest trends and best practices in the industry.
Besides coding, I also enjoy mentoring other aspiring developers. I have:
- Interviewed and hired several developers for my previous company.
- Managed a team of 9 developers and helped them grow their skills and careers.
- Took part in organizing a web developer academy and worked as a mentor for that academy in my previous job.
I’m passionate about sharing my knowledge and experience with others who want to learn or improve their coding skills. Whether you need help preparing for interviews, understanding concepts, or building projects, I’m here to help. Let’s work together to help you achieve your career goals.😊

Darko provided insightful explanations that really helped me understand complex topics. He didn’t just give ready-made answers but encouraged me to think through the problem and how to solve it. His feedback was relevant and valuable. I’ve learned a lot from Darko.

I joined MentorCruise looking for a mentor who could help me navigate some messy product code and think more clearly about my development process. Darko approached our conversations with clarity and precision. He didn’t just give advice—he worked through problems with me. This hands-on approach gives me the opportunity to see how he approaches and models problems. Darko genuinely wants to help, which just makes everything more enjoyable. Thanks to Darko’s mentorship, I feel like I make better design decisions now, and I'm a more confident developer.
