about
Hey, I'm Jakov — a Senior Software Development Engineer at Autodesk, based in Dubrovnik. These days I live mostly in React, Node.js, and JavaScript — building scalable, product-grade features that ship to millions of users worldwide. My roots are in .NET and C#, which still shape how I think about architecture and clean backend design. I care about writing code that's readable, fast, and built to last.

Building performant, scalable UIs in React — from component architecture and state management to seamless UX. I focus on code that's maintainable at scale, not just code that works today.
Designing and shipping reliable Node.js services and REST APIs — with a sharp eye on performance, security, and clean contracts between systems. Backed by years of .NET architecture thinking.
At Autodesk, I work on software used by millions of engineers and designers worldwide. That means thinking beyond features — into reliability, observability, and long-term system health.

Databases and Knowledge Bases — My master's thesis was on the topic of creating intelligent recommender systems using machine learning and artificial intelligence.
Informational systems — At this point I was sharpening my skills to become a software engineer and do what I love the most — develop cool things which will find their purposes in real life.
work
Building a next-generation Bill of Materials experience for Autodesk Fusion — in production, at Autodesk scale. React, Node.js and GraphQL powering a feature used by millions of engineers and designers worldwide. Still shipping.
Shipped a native plugin embedded into SolidWorks, Inventor, AutoCAD, NX, CATIA, Creo and Office tools — letting millions of engineers version and revision CAD designs directly to the cloud. Architected a single .NET codebase supporting both .NET Framework and .NET Core runtimes natively across the entire CAD ecosystem.
