About

The engineer behind Invocation

Independent, production-grade delivery since 2014 — from Belgrade, Serbia, for clients worldwide.

I'm Andrej Dragojevic. For over twelve years I've been the engineer companies call when the system can't be allowed to fail: billing migrations where every mistake costs real revenue, marketplaces holding other people's money in escrow, fintech platforms that have to stay up while being rebuilt.

The defining project of that career so far: leading the migration of Babbel's recurring billing — hundreds of millions in recurring revenue — from Adyen to Stripe with zero downtime. Before that, I built GigSocial's influencer marketplace from an empty repository to thousands of monthly transactions and global payouts, led the modernization of eifas's fintech platform in Germany, and shipped booking and marketplace platforms across Europe and the US.

I'm a Stripe Certified Professional Billing Architect — one of the few independent engineers holding Stripe's highest billing certification. When your revenue runs through code I wrote, that piece of paper matters.

The AI part isn't a pivot. It's how I work.

I build and operate Antrix OS, my own automated engineering platform: AI tooling orchestrated across Claude Code, Codex, and automated review loops, picking up GitHub issues, implementing them, and cross-checking the work — with me as the senior engineer in the loop. It's why a solo engagement with me delivers at a pace that used to need a team.

That operating experience is what I sell in automation engagements: automations and LLM integrations engineered with the same discipline as a billing system, because I've learned the failure modes on my own infrastructure first.

I also ship my own products. Count21, a blackjack strategy trainer, is a paid SaaS I built solo — product, brand, UI, infrastructure, Stripe Billing with subscription and lifetime tiers, and an AI-driven content pipeline for its marketing. ArenaMaster, a World of Warcraft rankings and character-profiles platform, still serves its competitive community eight years after launch — recently rebuilt top to bottom without stopping it. Owning products end to end keeps me honest about what shipping really takes. The AI side of my work — Antrix OS, automation systems, and what I'm building with them — lives at antrix.dev.

How I think about the work

Production is the only benchmark

Demos are easy. I measure work by what survives real customers, real money, and real load — and I've kept that bar for a decade.

Numbers over adjectives

Hundreds of millions in client revenue migrated and processed without incident. Zero downtime. If I can't quantify it, I won't claim it.

Honest scoping

If your project doesn't need me — or doesn't need building at all — I'll say so in the first call. Reputation compounds better than billable hours.

Bleeding edge, deliberately

I run automated AI systems in my own work every day, so when I bring automation into yours, it's from operating experience — not from a blog post.

Bigger than one engineer?

When a project needs more hands — design, mobile, e-commerce, marketing pages — I bring in a small delivery network of specialists I've worked with for years. Same accountability, one point of contact: me.
