Summary
Miro Svrtan is a senior software engineer and contractor from Zagreb with two decades of professional experience and 14 years focused on building resilient web systems and developer practices. As owner of Null Development and a trainer at Null Training, he combines hands-on engineering (PHP/Symfony, MySQL, CI/CD, Ansible) with mentoring and team enablement, introducing BDD/TDD, PHPSpec/Behat, and continuous deployment into production workflows. He has scaled high-traffic platforms, removed performance bottlenecks, and managed cloud infrastructure while leading teams and organizing developer communities like ZgPHP and WebCamp Zagreb. An international conference speaker and workshop trainer, he’s as comfortable teaching testing and event-sourcing patterns as he is implementing them in mission-critical systems. A practical systems thinker, he often translates business requirements into technical specifications and repeatable processes that lift both code quality and team productivity.
