12+ Years From Frontend Dev to CTO: I've Walked Your Path
Hi, I'm Adam Bilišič, a practicing CTO who's navigated the complete developer journey—from writing code to leading teams and shaping product strategy.
Having personally evolved through frontend, backend, architecture, product ownership, and team leadership roles, I understand the technical-to-leadership transition better than most.
My specialty? Helping technically brilliant developers overcome the often-overlooked barriers to career advancement: communication challenges, leadership skills gaps, and strategic thinking that extends beyond code.
What separates successful technical leaders isn't just their coding ability—it's their capacity to communicate value, influence decisions, and lead diverse teams toward shared goals.
