Hi, I'm Krešimir Iličić

Since 2026, I have been working as a Frontend Developer at Meticulous Digital, where I use my frontend expertise to build and maintain web applications. My work focuses on integrating Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) components into existing and new projects, implementing features based on project requirements, and improving the user experience.

I contribute to projects built on Adobe Experience Manager, including headless CMS and composable architectures, with a focus on writing maintainable code, improving SEO, and following accessibility and frontend best practices.

From 2023 to 2026, I worked at OG Consultancy Services, where I primarily developed applications using Vue.js on the frontend and NestJS on the backend. During this time, I gained experience in database design, Docker, and building both internal company projects and client-facing applications.

One of the key projects I worked on was for Bahn.de, where I developed reusable frontend components, wrote automated tests, and contributed production code used by over 40 million users each month. This experience strengthened my knowledge of web accessibility, SEO, GDPR compliance, and frontend best practices.

During my 6-month Android developer internship at ASSECO SEE, Zagreb, I worked with Java on a multinational project featuring a single modular codebase designed to handle multiple different clients. I gained hands-on experience in agile development, participating in sprints, stand-ups, and code reviews.

I collaborated closely with my team to solve tasks and deliver features on time, which helped me improve both my technical skills and my ability to work in a team-oriented environment.

I previously worked as a content writer and SEO specialist for various clients, many of whom I connected with through the UpWork platform, where I was recognized as a Top Rated freelancer. Most of the articles I wrote were in English, although I also produced content in Croatian. This experience not only sharpened my writing skills but also gave me a deep understanding of SEO.

I helped several clients achieve top rankings on Google, and the SEO knowledge I gained has since proven valuable in my work as a frontend developer.

I completed my Master's degree in Information Technology at the Faculty of Organization and Informatics, University of Zagreb. During the program, I deepened my software development skills, focusing on software architecture, design patterns, and system optimization.

I worked on several team projects, gaining experience in collaboration, problem-solving, and applying theoretical knowledge to practical development tasks.

I enrolled in the Speck Frontend Academy, a 4-month program focused on building modern web applications. During the program, I improved my React skills, creating dynamic and responsive user interfaces.

I worked on a CRUD project in team, gaining experience in collaboration, Git and GitHub, and following industry best practices. The program ended with a final exam, which I successfully completed.

I completed my Bachelor's degree in Information Technology at the Faculty of Organization and Informatics, University of Zagreb. During this time, I gained a solid foundation in software development, learning key principles of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), database design, and understanding the importance of business logic in projects.

This education helped me develop a strong technical base while also teaching me how to align software solutions with the underlying business needs.
