Aleksandar Stajić
Technical Product & Platform Architect | Hands-on Software Engineering, AI Integration & Delivery
Munich Area, Germany
Professional Profile
Hands-on technical product and platform professional combining software architecture, full-stack implementation, AI integration and structured project delivery. More than two decades of IT work across web applications, databases, infrastructure, digital publishing, technical SEO, networking and production operations.
Professional work bridges product and business requirements with implementation: from requirements and delivery structure through architecture, database and API design, frontend development, AI integration, deployment, search visibility and ongoing operation. Formal project and delivery competence is supported by the IPMA® Level D – Certified Project Management Associate certification and the Professional Scrum Master I (PSM I) certification.
Independent platform work includes stajic.de, loving.rocks, figure.rocks and related technical projects. These platforms provide practical environments for architecture, multilingual publishing, SEO, AI-assisted workflows, database-backed applications, deployment and production engineering.

- Full-Stack Engineering: Frontend, backend, database and integration work across modern web platforms.
- AI Integration: Local and cloud model integration, OpenAI/Codex workflows, Ollama and local LLM environments, RAG-oriented workflows and AI-assisted application features.
- Enterprise Delivery & Project Management: Requirements, project planning, milestones, risks, acceptance criteria, change, validation and operational readiness.
- Scrum & Iterative Product Delivery: PSM I-certified Scrum knowledge with a focus on Product Backlog structure, Sprint execution, empirical delivery and usable increments.
- Data & Search Architecture: Relational and NoSQL databases, structured data, search indexing and metadata-driven applications.
- Infrastructure & Operations: Linux, web servers, deployment, networking, troubleshooting and production maintenance.
- Technical SEO & Multilingual Platforms: Information architecture, canonical and multilingual structures, structured publishing, search visibility and content distribution.
- Technical Documentation & Traceability: Architecture documentation, requirements, decisions, project knowledge and implementation evidence using structured collaboration tools.
From Product Need to Production Operation
A recurring professional pattern is the ability to connect multiple delivery layers rather than treating them as isolated disciplines.
BUSINESS / PRODUCT NEED ↓
REQUIREMENTS ↓
PROJECT / DELIVERY STRUCTURE ↓
ARCHITECTURE ↓
DATABASE / API ↓
FRONTEND ↓
AI INTEGRATION ↓
DEPLOYMENT ↓
SEO / DISTRIBUTION ↓
PRODUCTION OPERATION
This range is particularly relevant in projects where architectural decisions must remain connected to implementation and where technical work must stay understandable to product, project and business stakeholders.

Selected Platforms & Product Work
stajic.de — Technical Platform, Portfolio & Enterprise Knowledge System
stajic.de serves as the primary technical platform and professional publishing environment. The platform combines software engineering, AI, architecture, implementation case studies and structured enterprise delivery knowledge.
The platform functions as both a public technical property and a practical environment for testing architecture, publishing systems, AI-assisted workflows, SEO structures and delivery concepts.
- Platform and information architecture
- Nuxt-based frontend implementation
- Node/Nitro backend and API concepts
- Prisma and PostgreSQL
- Structured EditorJS publishing
- Multilingual content architecture
- Technical SEO and search-engine integration

The Enterprise area extends the platform into structured knowledge around delivery, change, AI adoption, architecture, operational readiness, playbooks, runbooks and implementation-oriented reference models.
loving.rocks — International Wedding & Lifestyle Platform
loving.rocks is an international publishing and product-platform concept organized around semantic content structures, multilingual publishing and SEO Pillars.
Technical work includes structured taxonomy, scalable content architecture, database-backed platform concepts, internationalization, SEO design and ongoing production operation.
The intended commercial direction focuses on selective high-value advertising and premium products around the broader “sense of wedding” concept rather than generic advertising volume.
The platform demonstrates the combination of technical architecture, audience structure, multilingual content delivery, search strategy and product positioning.
figure.rocks — Gaming, Technology & Collectibles Platform

bazify.com — Commerce / Platform Project
bazify.com forms part of the broader platform portfolio and explores e-commerce, product discovery and structured online retail.
Current development attention is lower than for stajic.de, loving.rocks and figure.rocks, but the project remains part of the broader platform and commerce experimentation portfolio.
