Meet Ivan Car, a Full Stack Developer at Agilno.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

To begin, tell us about your college journey. We hear it’s an interesting story.<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Well, as a young idealist, in search of a better world, I decided to study Ecology at the University of Science. A few years later, I received my master’s degree. Later on, I decided to enroll in another college. It was the Department for Forensic Sciences, University in Split, where I also received a master’s degree.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Wow, nice! But we also heard that your student years were interesting?<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

During my studies, I worked at Radio Student where I hosted shows related to ecology. I volunteered in different environmental, cultural, and scientific organizations<\/strong>. Perhaps, the most interesting experience in my life, just after I finished my studies, was the dolphin population research in the Adriatic Sea.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Now that we’ve got to know you a bit, tell us about your career path.<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

After college, the first challenge naturally was – finding a job. In Croatia back then, at least in my case, it was hard to find a long-term position in the ecology field. Then I decided to move abroad. Since I was a drummer<\/strong> and spent a lot of time traveling in Europe, I had the privilege to visit many cool and interesting places. But the city that thrilled me the most was Prague<\/strong>. So, I made my decision to move to Prague.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

A little bird told us you worked there for Amazon.<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Exactly! Shortly after moving to Prague, I got a job at Amazon. I had never worked for such a large corporation and wanted to try what that would be like. My job was to investigate<\/strong> possible suspicious activities and frauds to protect our customers. It was an exciting job, but I had found out that the corporate world was not my thing.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

But the road brought you back to Croatia. How come?<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Yes! After two years at Amazon, I wanted to do something that would be more fulfilling. For a short period, I even worked as a chef at a vegan restaurant. After that, I came back to Croatia and decided to start my own business, but since the coronavirus pandemic happened – well, you know, plans changed. That idea is waiting for some better times.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

So how did you end up in software engineering?<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It happened by fate. A former colleague of mine from Amazon posted on LinkedIn that she started working as a Software Engineer. We started talking about her job, and it fascinated me how she made that switch in her career. I applied to Codeworks, a software engineering school<\/strong>. And in the next eight months, I was into coding 24\/7, non-stop learning, and at the same time working on various projects.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\"\"\r\n

Oh, if memory serves us correctly, you\u2019ve got various hobbies.<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Guilty as charged! I was a snowboarding instructor in Italy, a video editor, and concert organizer, and a booking and tour manager for bands. Oh, and I almost forgot, I have a yoga instructor certification.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And now you\u2019re here with us. Can you tell us how you like working in Agilno so far?<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It\u2019s been awesome, and I am not saying it just because I\u2019m talking to the Marketing team hahahahah. I like the atmosphere<\/strong> in the office. And even though we can work remotely, I am still coming here every day. But, the person that fascinates me the most is Petar, our CEO. He has a clear vision of where he wants to see Agilno in the long run<\/a>, and he is transparent about it. This way, we all feel a part of the company’s success.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In the end, do you want to maybe share some key thoughts with us?<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Yes! Never stop learning, it\u2019s the best kind of investment.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
