Services

What I take on, whether that is one hard feature or an ongoing seat on your team.

Senior Angular development

Embedded in your team as a senior contractor, delivering production Angular with Signals, NgRx and standalone components.

Full-stack SaaS feature delivery

Features that run end to end, across Angular on the frontend and Kotlin, Spring Boot or .NET on the backend.

Frontend architecture and audit

State management, micro frontend structure and performance reviews that keep a growing app maintainable.

Angular modernization and migration

Upgrades to the latest Angular, Signals and NgRx, and migrations off legacy setups.

Work

A few of the products I have helped build.

CloudNC

United Kingdom

Manufacturing / CNC

Worked on asset management and the validation layer for a CAM add-in whose engine turns a part, stock and available tooling into toolpaths in a fraction of the time manual programming takes. Angular Signals and NgRx Signal Store on the frontend, plus backend work through a Kotlin gRPC service. Shipped as part of a v2 with strong client adoption.

Procurement SaaS

Helped rewrite a strategic sourcing platform from legacy tech to Angular. Owned internationalization end to end, wiring compile-time translations into CI so a new language took about an hour across German, English and Spanish. The rewrite drove a large client migration and new client wins.

Corporate wellbeing

Worked on Rewards, the platform's most complex feature, where employees earn points for tracked activities and redeem cash or recognition rewards. Helped engineer the real-time reward pipeline and kept payouts correct and secure, with no double rewarding. Was the first to split Rewards into its own micro frontend as the app moved to around 20 independently deployable apps, and became code owner for the entire Nx workspace.

About

I am Nermin Kovačević, a full-stack engineer based in Tuzla, Bosnia and Herzegovina. For the last seven years I have built enterprise and SaaS products, with a deep focus on modern Angular and a solid backend in Kotlin, Spring Boot and .NET.

Through Code Smithy I work as an embedded senior contractor. I join your team, own features end to end, review code, and mentor where it helps. I work async across time zones and care about shipping software that is fast, accessible and maintainable.
