On Wednesday, we celebrated a significant milestone: Sourcico’s 9th Anniversary in Macedonia! With immense pride, we reflected on the journey that has brought us here, fueled by an outstanding team whose dedication and creativity have been essential to our success.

The celebration was marked by our traditional anniversary cake in the office. Ilan gave a heartfelt speech, inspiring us all with visions of our future and the impact we continue to make. Additionally, we honored our long-serving team members with awards for their 5-year anniversaries at Sourcico, and we celebrated the achievements of this year’s ‘Rookie of the Year’ and ‘MVP.’ Congrats go to Marijana, Nikolche, Nenad, Nebojsha, and Steve on their five years as Sourcicans! Borche won the ‘Rookie of the Year’ award for his contributions to Sourcico and his team in his first year as a Sourcican. Meto has also won the MVP award for his immense dedication and achievements in the past year. Great job, and very well deserved!

After the office celebration, we headed to ATK for a drink to continue the festivities.

As we look back on this special day, we are grateful for the incredible relationships we’ve built and the remarkable achievements we’ve accomplished together. Here’s to pushing boundaries, driving change, and continuing our journey of excellence.

Cheers to more years of innovation and success!

The 3rd edition of Sourcicode marked another milestone for our thriving developer community. This time, we dove deep into the heart of Node.js, exploring the horizons of scalability and security.

Scaling with the Cluster Module: The highlight of the event was the in-depth session on the Node.js cluster module. A huge shoutout to Borce for unraveling the complexities of optimizing Node.js apps. Leveraging multi-core systems has never been clearer, as Borce showed us how to efficiently create worker processes for enhanced performance. For anyone aiming to scale their Node.js applications, yesterday was a game-changer!

The Art of Secret-Keeping in Applications: The event took an intriguing turn, with Bozidar taking the stage. The focus? Keeping our application secrets…secret. Bozidar shared his unique strategies for hiding and finding secrets within our applications. From passwords to digital certificates, we learned the importance of confidentiality and the tools necessary for ensuring the security of our applications.

The evening wouldn’t be complete without pizza, beer, and games. From 8-ball pool to PS5 and table football, it was the perfect blend of insightful discussions and relaxed networking.

Missed this one? Don’t worry! The knowledge shared and the connections made have only set the stage for what’s to come. Stay tuned for more events where tech meets fun in the most memorable ways.

Keep building, keep scaling, and, most importantly, keep your secrets safe. Until next time!

What a weekend it’s been for the Sourcico teams! Splitting our spirit of adventure and dedication, we embarked on two thrilling activities. A group of us hiked through the breathtaking trails to the Babuna Waterfalls, immersing ourselves in nature’s untouched beauty and bonding over the challenge of the climb. The laughter and the moments we got to share outside of our offices were absolutely priceless.

On the other front, our enthusiastic runners joined the Semos Education Run 2024, embodying our commitment to sport, recreation, and a healthy lifestyle. Together, we sprinted with a purpose – to champion the cause of wellness and encourage a vibrant, active community. Both events, soaked in fun and driven by a sense of purpose, showcased our team’s versatility and commitment to making a difference, both within and beyond our community.

Here’s to many more adventures and meaningful causes!

We’re so happy that we can now say that these get-togethers of the Sourcico Macedonia and the Sourcico Serbia teams are becoming a regular thing. On Wednesday couple of guys and girls from the Skopje office drove down to Belgrade and had an informal meeting and lunch with the Serbian team. We shared insights from our work, brainstormed bright ideas and plans for this year, and shared some laughs and some rakia (when you know you know). All in all, it was a great experience for everyone included, and we’re looking forward to doing it again sometime soon!

Take a sneak peek into this year’s Sourcico Christmas present. We are unwrapping joy under our Christmas tree with a stylish travel bag, a cozy hoodie, a thermos, and an exclusive limited edition Sourcico Cuvee.
Adventure, comfort, and celebration—all in one festive package. In time to make this holiday season memorable!

We wrapped up the year in style at Cresha Bar this past Friday as we gathered to celebrate the incredible achievements, hard work, and shared moments that made 2023 an unforgettable year for Sourcico! Cheers to a brighter and better 2024!

Weko took the spotlight at this year’s JS Talks conference in Sofia, captivating the audience with his insightful presentation on “How to Mess Up JWTs – A Practitioner’s Guide.” Weko’s expertise and engaging delivery left a lasting impression on everyone present, showcasing Sourcico’s commitment to staying at the forefront of industry knowledge.

A special shout-out to the enthusiastic group of Sourcicans who attended the conference, demonstrating our strong sense of community and support for one another.

Honeycomb Magic

The tradition continues. As autumn arrives, and the floral nectar transforms into golden honeycomb, there’s something magical about blending it with RAKIA. The result? The unforgettable Medovacha (Honey Rakia).

What’s Medovacha?

Medovacha, also known as Honey Rakia, is more than just a drink. It’s a tradition, a blend of nature’s sweetness, and a hint of Balkan charm.

Why Medovacha Scrum?

Rumors say Medovacha possesses incredible benefits:

A cure-all from the flu to cosmic radiation effects.

A remedy for cancer and bad coding (well, almost).

Medovacha Scrum 2023 Highlights:

We experienced the Scrum with a touch of Balkan tradition.

We engaged in insightful discussions about Agile and Scrum.

We savored the unique taste of Medovacha.

We had a chance to connect with your incredible Sourcico colleagues.

What a fantastic day we had at the Skopje Marathon yesterday! Team Sourcico was on fire, participating in the 5k race, Marathon Relay, and Half Marathon!

Our 5k sprinters zoomed through the course, leaving everyone in their dust!

Our Marathon Relay team showcased amazing teamwork, passing the baton with precision!

Our Half Marathon heroes conquered every mile with sheer determination and grit!

After the races it was the perfect time to celebrate our results with ice cold beers in Centar Bar.

A huge shoutout to our incredible colleagues, representing Sourcico with passion and dedication. You all are true champions!

Stay tuned for more exhilarating adventures as Team Sourcico continues to push the limits and conquer new challenges!

We’re still buzzing with excitement after an incredible weekend we had at the beginning of July in Mavrovo for Sourcico’s traditional team-building trip!

We also took this opportunity to recognize our outstanding colleagues who reached significant work anniversaries and reward them for their unwavering dedication and expertise! Their contributions have played a vital role in shaping our success. An important part of our award ceremony is the awards for the Sourcico Rookie of the Year as well as the Sourcico MVP award. Two of our colleagues were awarded for their exceptional skills and outstanding contributions. Well done!
On Sunday, we had a chance to visit the Sharkova Dupka Cave in Mavrovo. The beauty and wonder of the cave left us in awe, further deepening our connection as a team.

Cheers to another great team-building trip and the remarkable individuals who make our team shine! Here’s to another incredible year filled with growth, success, and endless possibilities!

You aspire to create a stellar product on the internet.
You strive to serve your customers excellently.
You are meant to leave a lasting mark on the history of humankind.

You know what you want!

You can’t do it. It is time to start learning how to make the product, which technologies to pick, and how to apply them. Good, you can be a system architect.

Oh, wait. The staff! Find a great staff to run chosen technologies. They will be capable of being on track with the latest trends. Great, you will start speaking the language of the computer engineers!

How about the reliability of the product? Don’t worry. You can learn about many cloud vendors, their virtual machines, terms like “kubernetes” or “dockers”, and every short term like IaaS, SaaS, PaaS, or any other XaaS. It is a whole new world for you. Also, there is a great benefit of learning continuous development, so you can constantly improve your product. Or a whole new parallel universe.

And yes. The costs! You will have a detailed look at each technology, person, or service figure. That way, you will start digging where you can optimize costs on your resource. You will learn where to stop wasting money and where to boost.

You know what you want!

Yes, you know. You have the talent but not the bandwidth. You aspire to make your product stellar, but you ignore your customers. Time and energy run out before you can make a lasting mark.

With more than hundreds of years of accumulated experience in staff augmentation, Sourcico can help you save time and energy for the development and maintenance of your stellar product on the internet at a low cost.

The combined impact of the nowadays society (lay-offs, slow economy, pandemic, and cost of living crisis) probably adds up to the most challenging economic circumstances we’ve ever experienced.

Despite all the uncertainty, businesses say their priority for the next months is not only balancing the books but achieving growth too.

Here are 3 steps for big success in bringing your business to the next level:

1. Take control of the helm

Your business should be on the internet not only for the visitors and for the customers but also for yourself. That way, you can match requirements with processes. Not just that! You can be adaptive JUST IN TIME with the latest market trends.

Make a web dashboard.
It will give you all the buttons when you want to start, stop, pause, resume, speed up, or slow down any of your business processes just whenever you want.

And stop using the term “website for our business” and start using “Our web platform”! True. It will be a whole new universe of how you run your business. You will have web tools that your customers and you can use together to reach your common goals.

Make a web dashboard with record pace:
– Visualize and develop a platform
– Start on cloud
– Automate changes

2. Be totally content

All data matters. But is that true? According to entropy, too much data is equivalent to no data. Yes, but the cost of storing it is very much different. Collect first. Shape the content later.

Engineer your data:
Proper business data flow is called “data pipe”. From customers to your reports, in a short time, that will give you an exact interpretation of the data and easy-to-decide figures.
…and safe because engineered data means that recognizing anomalies is automated.

The decision based on engineered data will give you the whole time to focus only on the sharper content that you offer to your customers.

Engineer your data:
– Make data pipes (customer-to-decision)
– Automatically recognize data anomalies
– Sharpen the content

3. Collaborative support

Nowadays, customers don’t want the stuff they watch or read; they want it to feel as though they’re talking to their friends. This means they actually respond very similarly to well-made chat profiles. So, customers, instead of calling a support center for small queries, you can provide them with quick answers from your “gpt-like” chat profiles.
Just the chat profiles won’t work with the knowledge from the whole internet but from your platform.
You can personalize chats for each customer and with different contexts.

Transform your platform into AI:
– Train a chat
– Trigger actions
– Keep personalization and context

Remote offshore teams have faced many challenges and opportunities in the wake of the covid-19 pandemic. The global health crisis has accelerated the adoption of remote work and digital collaboration tools but has also exposed the gaps and risks in communication, coordination, and culture. However, remote offshore teams have adapted to the new normal and thrived in the post-covid era.

Did you know that Covid-19 had an unexpected positive influence on businesses? It may sound surprising, but it’s true! With the rise of remote working, location is no longer a limiting factor when it comes to finding top talent. Companies realize that they can run their operations entirely online without a specific central location, which has opened up a world of new opportunities for them.

Think of it like a powerful lock that has been removed, allowing businesses to tap into offshore software development services and reap the benefits. Offshore software development can help us to save costs, access a larger pool of skilled developers, and increase our productivity and efficiency. If you’re looking to boost your development capabilities, look no further! Contact us, and we’ll help you find the best option to suit your needs.
