Luka Popijac is a technical lead and full-stack engineer with 12 years of experience building scalable web and data systems, from low-latency in-memory databases to production ML microservices. He has led cross-functional teams and defined architectures for startups and product companies, shipping solutions that include AR visualization, aircraft engine tracking, and a currency graph-search engine he built as a founder. Comfortable across React, Node.js, PostgreSQL and cloud platforms, he pairs database design and backend rigor with front-end performance work—evident in a 10 KB Web Components UI and virtual scrolling for 2,000-row tables. Currently pursuing an MS in Artificial Intelligence at UT Austin, Luka blends academic depth with hands-on delivery and a habit of publishing projects and articles on his site. He’s particularly adept at turning complex algorithms and data models into pragmatic, production-ready services.
