Independent expertise. Room to grow.

Code Essence is an independent software engineering consultancy founded by Saša Cvjetković, a QA automation specialist with more than a decade of experience in software quality, engineering and technical leadership.

My background spans test automation, cross-platform mobile testing, CI/CD pipelines and quality strategy. I have worked across international projects in aviation, medical technology and mobile applications, combining hands-on engineering with team leadership and mentoring.

Today, Code Essence brings that experience directly to clients: practical solutions, clear communication and a focus on maintainable software. The company is intentionally lean, with the flexibility to expand as projects and partnerships grow.
