About

Hi, I’m Toni Matić, a passionate software developer specializing in Python, data engineering, and machine learning. I’ve been fortunate to work on a variety of projects ranging from commodity trading data processing to automotive data applications. I enjoy tackling complex backend challenges, optimizing databases, and building automated production pipelines.

My experience also spans mentoring junior team members and working directly with international clients, which has helped me develop strong communication and leadership skills. Outside of work, I contribute as a volunteer backend developer for a mental health platform, continuously honing my skills and giving back to the community.
