AI is becoming workplace commonplace

I’m from Croatia and I currently live in Berlin. I graduated with a master’s degree in computer science, worked at one of Croatia’s biggest digital agencies, then went on to work with a US-based crypto startup before joining Web Summit.
I joined Web Summit because I wanted to be part of a product that has a global impact.
Also, it offered the flexibility I needed. I was looking for remote positions, since I had decided that I don’t want to be tied to one place for the whole year. Spending the summers by the Croatian seaside while working on cool features that will be used by the biggest names in the tech industry is quite appealing to me.
I’m primarily an Android developer, but for some time now I’ve been working on a microservice – written in Rust – for generating UI on the clients.
I work with the Android framework and Rust Actix.
We have to make sure that the app we ship has the best possible UX and that it is 100-percent crash-free.
I would say the most challenging project has been developing a framework for server-side generation of client UI components.
We have a weekly meeting where people can share interesting new technologies and cool things they’re working on. Also, we have multiple Slack channels for knowledge sharing.
I think it is the ability to be 100-percent remote.
I love to travel, and I enjoy hiking, riding my bike, going to concerts, and hanging out with my friends.
