I build systems that move money.

I'm Marko Marinovic, a fintech engineering leader. I'm a staff engineer and team lead at Lisk, building money operations software for finance teams.

Through Blank, the studio I co-founded and run engineering for, I build my own products and consult for companies building payments and AI systems.

I started in crypto: DeFi, token launches and launchpads, stablecoins, key generation and transaction signing. Most of what I build now is hybrid or fully fiat - accounts, payments, ledgers, approvals. The constraints changed more than the problems did.

The AI work and the money work are the same job. I spent years building AI systems that act on their own, and now I work on software that moves money. They fail the same way: acting on information nobody checked.
