Ivo Polic

Technical Problem-Solving Consultant

Croatia · ipolic85@gmail.com

Summary

Direct, diagnostic and relentlessly practical.

No-nonsense, direct consultant specializing in solving complex technical and performance problems that most teams cannot diagnose or fix. I combine engineering, data infrastructure, and performance marketing systems to identify root causes, remove noise, and deliver fast, precise solutions.

Clients hire me when the tracking is broken, attribution makes no sense, ROAS is collapsing, developers are stuck, or agencies say the problem is "unfixable." I find the issue, isolate it, and fix it — efficiently and permanently.

Core Expertise

Technical engineering for performance systems

SaaS architecture & backend development

AI/process automation

Performance marketing systems

Data engineering (ClickHouse, PostgreSQL, Redis)

Funnel logic, ESP routing, event pipelines

Removing all white noise and prioritizing the real issue

"I am not a marketer or a developer — I am the person people hire when the system is broken and nobody knows why. My value is isolating the issue buried under noise, diagnosing it fast, and fixing it cleanly."
