5 questions for… Jovan Soldatovic

Jovan Soldatović is the Managing Partner of the Bad Sistems.

He earned the first $150 by writing an emulator script for the World of Warcraft, a famous game, which introduced him to programming.
At the beginning of his career, he was a software engineer at Media Genesis in 2014, where he learned a lot, acquired work habits and the basics of business culture – for which he is so grateful.

Before that, he programmed alone or with friends. Since 2016, when he wrote the last line of code, his career has gone in a completely different direction. His profession is now related to business consulting, project management, and business development. He never thought he would deal with it, but it turned out to be his call and something he loved. Programming was an excellent foundation for further development in business.

Besides, his domain today is digital product building, business development, and sales.

In the last five years, he has worked on the building of several various digital products. He is most proud of NadjiTuru.rs (now known as starloads.com). There is also ZerOCR (zerocr.io) – used by financial institutions – therefore, they save a large amount of money on processing documentation.

He loves to create something new, especially when he has no experience with that industry. He takes risks by doing what he likes, and he assumes that this is why everything is going well.

In his free time, he enjoys cooking and preparing food, especially dishes from Bosnia and the north of Serbia. As the main ingredient, he singles out good company – with which everything is even tastier.
