Milan is a back-end engineer who enjoys developing complicated systems and working with data. He likes to break systems into smaller loosely-joined parts and believes in writing maintainable and testable code. The bulk of his work consists of Python and PHP development, but he's also quite good at building with Symfony. Currently, Milan is exploringand learning about the potential of data science.

Work Experience

Technical Team Lead

2016 - PRESENT
Mikenopa
  • Built a service-based system for hotel internet provider and conference management; using RESTful services, JSON API specification, and micro-services architecture.
  • Changed-out an outdated development style (consisting of individual project owners) into a modern team-based development methodology, including best practices like team-driven architectural decisions, code review, automated testing, and CI. By doing so I enabled work to be prioritized and done as a team at a faster pace, eliminated single points of failure, and ensured that delivered systems adhered to the original design specification (unlike the previous development methods).
Technologies: Python, Symfony, PHP
