Dejan Juric.

I build things that don’t exist yet — and the companies that make them real.

Fifteen years turning ideas the market wasn’t ready for — mobile payments, open banking, a new kind of medicine — into products millions rely on, and the teams that build them.

About

I’m a product leader and software engineer drawn to the parts of a market where the honest answer is still “that can’t be done yet.” Today I’m Chief Product Officer and part of the executive team at MiNDNET E-Health, where I own product, architecture and delivery and lead the teams building something that didn’t exist a few years ago: regulated medicine you can prescribe that happens to be software — treatments that reach patients a pill or a waiting list never could.

It’s the same thing I’ve done for fifteen years in financial technology, in senior product and technology roles. I helped give Switzerland its first mobile payments with Paymit and TWINT — now used by millions — and built the country’s first standardised open-banking platform at SIX, infrastructure that didn’t exist until someone decided it should. At Bitcoin Suisse I brought a new core-banking platform to Switzerland’s largest crypto broker; at Banxware I built embedded lending across Europe. Earlier: strategy at BCG, co-founding the payments startup Klimpr, and lecturing on disruptive business models at Frankfurt School. I studied computer science at ETH Zürich.

The constant is a bias against the status quo, backed by the discipline to ship. I’m most useful where the map runs out — where the category is new, the playbook unwritten, and the job is to decide what should exist, build it, and lead the team that makes it real.

How I think

“That’s how it’s done” is where I start looking, not where I stop. Most defaults are just decisions nobody has revisited.

Engineering and strategy were never separate jobs. I do both, and what gets built is better for it.

I lead by giving strong people a hard problem and the room to own it — then staying close enough to help when it counts.

AI just moved the ceiling on what a small team can build. I’d rather redraw the plan than defend the old one.

Vision is cheap until it ships. The point was always to make the new thing real.

Contact

People reach out for one of three things — to build something together, to bring me in as an advisor, or to get a straight opinion on a hard problem. I’m selective about what I take on, but I read everything that reaches me.
