About Zdravko
I’m a Principal Engineer with 17+ years of commercial experience across RSM, Cisco, and Sky UK, working across software engineering, cloud platforms, enterprise infrastructure, networking, automation, and backend systems.
My background combines Python, software engineering, DevOps, Kubernetes, Linux, networking, APIs, automation, and cloud technologies. I’ve worked on real production systems and enterprise environments, giving me a practical perspective on how the different parts of modern technology work together.
I focus on practical, hands-on teaching rather than simply covering theory. My goal is to help you understand how technology is actually used in professional engineering teams, develop strong problem-solving skills, and become confident working with real systems.
I’m particularly interested in helping people who want to understand the **bigger picture of engineering** — not just learning one technology in isolation. For example, we can look at how code, APIs, Git, CI/CD, Docker, Kubernetes, cloud platforms, networking, and architecture fit together to build and operate real systems.
I work with beginners, career changers, university students, junior engineers, and IT professionals who want to move towards software engineering, DevOps, cloud engineering, or broader technical roles.
Topics I can help with include:
- Python & automation
- Software engineering fundamentals
- APIs & backend development
- Linux & shell scripting
- Git & GitHub
- Docker & containers
- Kubernetes
- CI/CD & DevOps
- Networking & infrastructure
- Cloud engineering
- System design & architecture
- Troubleshooting and debugging
I also enjoy helping people understand what it is actually like to work as an engineer — how to approach problems, investigate failures, make technical decisions, and understand the trade-offs involved in designing and operating systems.
If your goal is simply to pass a certification exam, I may not be the best fit. If your goal is to **develop practical engineering skills and understand how the different pieces fit together**, that's where I can add the most value.

Lessons are tailored around your current experience and what you want to achieve.
Rather than following a fixed syllabus, I prefer to build understanding progressively and connect different areas of technology together.
Depending on your goals, a lesson might involve:
- Learning a technical concept and understanding why it exists
- Writing and reviewing Python code
- Building an API or small application
- Working with Git and GitHub
- Containerising an application with Docker
- Building a CI/CD pipeline
- Understanding how applications run on Kubernetes
- Exploring networking and cloud concepts
- Troubleshooting a deliberately broken system
- Discussing architecture and design decisions
- Working through a practical project from development to deployment
- Preparing for technical interviews
For career changers, I can also help you understand `what to learn, in what order, and why`, rather than trying to learn every technology at once.
The aim is not simply to memorise commands or follow tutorials. I want you to understand what you are doing, why it works, how the different components interact, and how to troubleshoot when something goes wrong.
I’m happy to work with beginners, but I also enjoy working with engineers and IT professionals who already have some experience and want to develop a broader engineering perspective.
Lessons are available in 30-minute or 60-minute sessions, depending on the topic and your requirements.
Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
Zdravko helped me design and build my own project completely from scratch, and his guidance was invaluable throughout the entire process.
What makes him different is that he truly understands how the tech and cyber security industry works from the inside. Since he is actively involved in hiring and interviewing candidates, he knows exactly what companies are looking for nowadays and how to prepare students and professionals for real-world expectations.
He also helped me improve and structure my CV specifically for the cyber security field, giving practical advice that actually reflects current industry standards and recruitment processes.
His combination of deep technical knowledge, commercial experience, and strong educational background makes him an outstanding mentor. I highly recommend Zdravko to anyone wanting to improve their technical skills, build real projects, or successfully land a job in cyber security.Zdravko helped my daughter achieve 78% in her A-Level Computer Science exam, and we are extremely grateful for his support and guidance.
What stood out most was his real commercial and industry experience. He didn’t just teach theory — he taught her how to approach problems logically, design complete solutions, and write production-grade reports to a professional standard.
His teaching style made complex topics much easier to understand, and he always encouraged structured thinking and confidence when solving exam and coursework problems.
I highly recommend Zdravko to any student looking for high-quality Computer Science tutoring, especially for A-Level preparation and practical software development skills.See more recommendations
