Senior work arrives in waves. Hiring for the peaks doesn't pay.
An upgrade, a Hyvä migration or a performance escalation lands on top of the roadmap.
Your team is strong on one platform; a client asks for another, or for deep backend work.
A senior hire means months of recruiting, a full salary and notice periods, even in quiet months.
A senior engineer on your team, billed like a subscription.

What people who worked with me say
Recommendations from managers, leads and teammates, published on LinkedIn under their own names.
He is genuinely one of the most proactive, insightful and solution-orientated developers I’ve worked with. He approaches problems directly, gets to the root of complex technical challenges quickly and consistently comes back with well-considered, pragmatic solutions rather than simply identifying the issue. […] He’s dependable, easy to work with, communicates clearly, and has always been willing to take ownership and help move things forward. I would highly recommend him to any team looking for a strong Adobe Commerce development/ Magento developer, particularly someone who can contribute confidently across both frontend and backend development.
“He has been a huge asset to the team, taking a natural lead and working proactively and efficiently from the outset. Vanja is a great communicator, assisting in keeping stakeholders informed and always keeping the wider team updated.”
“I have worked with Vanja for nearly 12 years. Great colleague, very professional, pays attention to details and strive to deliver each project on time. I would highly recommend Vanja for each store owner looking for professional storefront implementation.”
“Whether it is a small task or a large project, he always keeps a consistent level of professionalism. […] if it was necessary, he was one of the guys who take over the unsolvable task and make them solvable.”

Questions before you start
The questions most people ask before they start. More detail on how it works.
Free check, fix plan or engineering audit: which one do I need?
The free check (30 seconds) shows what is wrong and how bad it is. The full fix plan (€120) unlocks that report the moment you pay: cause, location, fix and effort for every finding, generated from public data, no agreement and no access to your code. The engineering audit (€290) is a senior engineer inside your code, read-only and under NDA: the module or custom code behind each finding, what no scan can see (patches, configuration, integrations), hours in your codebase, a roadmap, your fixed monthly price and a written verdict on plan, project or agency. The fix plan is credited against the audit, the audit against your first month on a plan; both are refundable within 14 days.
How do we communicate?
In your tools: tickets in your Jira, Asana, Trello, Linear or Azure DevOps, quick questions in your Slack or Teams. No tool yet? I set up a free board for you and work in it. Replies within one working day, Monday to Friday 9:00 to 17:00 CET; production incidents the same working day. A monthly report arrives on the 1st.
How do you get access to our code?
Code stays in your repository; work happens on branches with pull requests. Named accounts only, credentials through 1Password or your SSO, NDA and DPA signed first. Every change is tested on staging before production. All access is removed on the last day, with a hand-over note.
How is billing handled?
Invoiced by V.DEV d.o.o., a registered Croatian company, monthly in advance from the day your plan starts, or yearly in advance with two months free. Card or SEPA Direct Debit through Stripe, or bank transfer within 14 days. EU businesses with a VAT number: reverse charge, no VAT added. Croatian businesses: 25% PDV. Hours above the plan are approved first.
Can we switch plans or cancel?
Yes. Care, Growth and Scale start with a 3-month initial term, then run month to month; the agency retainer runs month to month from the start with one month's notice. Move between Care, Growth and Scale from the next billing month; cancel with 30 days' notice. Your code, accounts and documentation stay with you.
Do you build new features, or only maintain?
Both. Smaller changes fit in the Growth and Scale plan hours. Bigger features (checkout changes, B2B, subscriptions, integrations, custom modules) are scoped and built at a fixed price, quoted in 2 working days, with a 30-day warranty.
