Hey, I'm Urban 👋

I run FlowForge — we take over your infrastructure so you can focus on your product.

DevOps consultancy out of Ljubljana, Slovenia. We embed senior engineers into your team, architect your cloud and bare-metal infra, and run IronSight — our managed observability platform.

Our clients run cryptocurrency exchanges, process card payments across acquirer-issuer networks, ship hardware wallets, and operate high-traffic e-commerce platforms. Sensitive data, regulated environments, zero tolerance for downtime — that's the world we operate in.


🏆 Why companies trust us

🏅 AWS Certified Solutions Architect · AWS Select Tier Partner
🏗️ AWS Community Builder
🇸🇮 AWS User Group Leader — Ljubljana (1 of 2 in Slovenia)
🎤 Organizer of AWS Community Day Adria — 6 countries, one stage
🎓 Guest mentor — AWS & DevOps Mentorship Program (Balkans)


🔥 What we actually do all day

🚀 Run production infrastructure — Docker Swarm clusters, k8s, bare-metal servers, blockchain full nodes
🌐 Networking-first approach — Started as a network engineer. Routing, firewalls, L4/L7 load balancing, DNS, overlay networks — it's not an afterthought, it's the foundation
📡 Observability — Grafana, Prometheus, Loki, Sentry — we deploy it, wire it up, and respond to the alerts at 3am
🔒 Security hardening — WAF rules, DMARC/DKIM/SPF, phishing response, credential leak investigations
☁️ Cloud & IaC — AWS, Hetzner, Proxmox, Terraform, Ansible — whatever fits the workload and the budget
