AI and DevEx Lead at Trade Republic
I'm Sasa Fajkovic, a technical leader with a product mindset and over a decade of experience in fintech, banking, and platform engineering. I build and lead teams
that make developers faster — cutting CI/CD costs by 60%, boosting pipeline speed by 30%, and integrating AI and LLM tooling into everyday workflows. I've
architected banking infrastructure handling cash balances, ledger systems, and financial compliance at scale.
I've founded a digital agency, built proprietary platforms from scratch, led PSD2 compliance implementations, and modernized legacy systems across some of Europe's
biggest financial institutions. As a former lecturer who taught programming to 300+ people, I bring a natural drive to simplify complexity and elevate the people
around me.
I write about AI agents, autonomous CI/CD, and developer productivity at sasa-fajkovic.com — always with a "progress over hype" approach.
