Ivan Rimac

Ivan Rimac, the CIO at Barrage, graduated from the Department of Physics at the University of J.J. Strossmayer in Osijek. He started in the ICT industry as a freelancer and co-founded and managed his first company, Studio 33, in Osijek.

Soon after that, as the market demand grew, in 2016, he co-founded Barrage to specialize more in custom application design and development. With an initial staff of around 15 employees, Barrage has a healthy growth and headcount of around 100.

Ivan’s domain is creating business processes, managing the software engineering teams, architecting cloud solutions, and implementing information and application security practices. He is always looking out for new technologies and how to apply them in a production environment.

On a more personal note, Ivan was a heart and soul athlete, which embedded him with just the right amount of discipline and competitiveness. Whether in the office or not, he does not go offline and never loses the drive, while tech talks with Ivan will result in a sublime experience.
