Hi, I’m Luka Piplica, a freelance software engineer from Mississauga, Canada with a strong background in full-stack development, cloud infrastructure, and mobile apps. I specialize in building scalable backend systems with Node.js, TypeScript, AWS (Lambda, DynamoDB, API Gateway, CDK, EC2, S3), and crafting intuitive frontends using React, React Native, and Flutter. I’ve contributed to production-grade platforms at startups and agencies, from cloud-based backend services at Subprime Platforms to mobile solutions at Lotus Addiction Therapy and One Iota. My work spans across designing serverless workflows, containerized deployments, and API integrations, as well as delivering polished mobile experiences for both iOS and Android. Beyond client projects, I’ve led and won hackathons, including Best Use of Terraform & 1st Place at HackTrent, proving my ability to solve complex problems under pressure. My academic foundation in Computer Science (Trent University) and Computer Engineering (Humber College) has equipped me with solid expertise in algorithms, systems programming, and software design. Suppose you’re looking for a developer who can design robust backend services, implement cloud-native infrastructure, and deliver modern web or mobile apps. In that case, I’d love to collaborate and bring your project to life.
