A new kind of software

Marktic is a full-stack AI platform. We're a small founding team building something that doesn't exist yet—and we're looking for someone to build it with us.

You'd be our second engineer. Your impact is immediate, and your quality bar matters.

What you'll do

Deliver great software across the entire stack. Early-stage means you'll touch everything, sometimes in the same day.

  • Product development from zero to shipped—backend and frontend
  • Writing code, shipping it through the full SDLC
  • Collaborating with the team to design and improve everything we're building
  • Taking vague goals and turning them into working slices of product

You might be a good fit if…

*

No Mold Fits

Doesn't fit a particular role. Gets hands-on with anything the team needs.

Experience takes many shapes—employment, side projects, volunteering, education. We care more about what you've built and how you think than how many years you've spent at a desk.

What we work with

Languages and tools matter less than thinking clearly, but here's what we use.

Essential

OOP SQL / ORMs Relational DBs React Docker Linux Git AI Inference APIs Security-first mindset English

Important

Laravel PostgreSQL Redis Event-driven architectures Deep web tech knowledge Kubernetes Grafana Sentry

Bonus

Croatian / Serbian Rust (actix/tokio) TypeScript ClickHouse Cloudflare AWS Selenium Sandboxed interpreters Neural networks / RAG Finding Easter eggs

What "good" looks like

  • You can take a vague goal and turn it into a working slice of product
  • You reason about tradeoffs: quick prototype vs. production-grade, where to cut corners, how to de-risk
  • You write code other people can understand and operate
  • You have strong instincts for security and reliability

Employee #3, not employee #30,000

The Team

Direct communication, always transparent, zero-bullshit policy. We like each other and hate processes that exist for their own sake.

Great Compensation

Industry-leading compensation for Croatia—probably the best offer you'll get while interviewing. Flexible vacation.

Perks

You'll get the opportunity to create them. We provide all the tools you need, and great company.

Feedback & Growth

We grow when you grow. We'll be proactive with feedback, and expect you to return the favour.

Join the war room

Build a product, not someone else's backlog. We're open to full-time employment contracts or student contracts for exceptional students.
