I build useful digital things and stay curious outside the screen.

I’m Emir, a digital product and project leader working across strategy, technology and storytelling. My favorite work turns messy ideas into clear products, useful systems and experiences people actually want to use.

What I do

Strategy with sleeves rolled up.

I’m most useful where product thinking, delivery and stakeholder alignment overlap. I like ambiguity at the beginning, as long as we can turn it into a clear roadmap, a working team and measurable progress.

Shape the problem

Discovery, product strategy, PRDs, prioritisation, stakeholder interviews and decision framing.

Projects with a story behind them.

Behind every finished deliverable is a story of iteration, constraints, and breakthrough moments. Here is a closer look at a few projects that best define my approach to building products.

01

Practical GenAI for a Drupal ecosystem

In a large Drupal environment, we applied AI to specific editorial workflows-such as spam checks, fact-checking, and translation-while maintaining strict human ovesight, transparency and GDPR in mind. The guiding principle: start with the workflow, define human verification rules, and give AI a specific job before scaling.

1888 Meets 2016 as National Museum Goes Digital

To celebrate Bosnia and Herzegovina’s rich heritage, PAUZA crafted a dynamic Drupal web presentation for Zemaljski Muzej BiH. Blending immersive virtual tours, a searchable artefact vault, and seamless multi-script, multilingual access, the platform brings invaluable historic treasures directly to a global audience.

“The common thread in my work is simple: make complex things understandable, useful and possible to deliver.”

Away from work

The side quests matter too.

I like interests that are physical, musical or exploratory - good counterweights to a screen-heavy profession.

🚣

Rowing & training

Structured sessions, Garmin metrics and the satisfying simplicity of stroke, rhythm, repeat.

🚲

Cycling & cities

Long routes, low-traffic roads and discovering places at a speed where you still notice them.

🎺

Music

Trumpet, bass, DJ culture and playlists that travel surprisingly well across decades.

Let’s connect

Interesting problem? I’m listening.

I’m especially interested in digital product work, AI-enabled services, content platforms and projects with a meaningful public or cultural dimension.

Good conversation starters

  • “We have a complicated digital platform…”
  • “We want to use AI, but sensibly.”
  • “We need a product person who can bridge business and tech.”
  • “What’s your best cycling route around Hamburg?”
