* a senior deep-tech team that ships.
Work on AI, data and software for clients and EU research projects, from our hubs in Croatia or remotely, with mentorship from day one.
We are a deep-tech innovation company that lives at the intersection of AI, data science and real-world industry. We work on projects that connect institutions, universities, R&D institutes and companies in finance, media, health, cyber, space, agro and more.
We believe in trust, autonomy and hybrid work. You organise your own time, work from Split, Samobor, Lastovo or remotely and focus on outcomes, not on counting hours. Our culture is warm, supportive and demanding in the best possible way: we expect ownership, curiosity and clear communication, and in return you get room to grow as a real expert.
Sparky* is built for people who want to learn fast and build serious things. You get mentorship from our team, access to conferences, certifications and an internal mini-learning program, plus a Sparky library for any book you need. We back that with solid benefits: additional health and pension, extra benefits for holidays (Christmas, Easter), generous vacation including collective breaks in August and around the holidays, and the Sparky Recharge Day every quarter (one day fully offline, just for you).
We support your life outside work too: Membership for sport for wellbeing activities, family-friendly policies, support around childcare and school, and “back-to-work” programs after parental leave. Our goal is simple, to create an environment where top people in AI, data and engineering can stay healthy, motivated and proud of the impact they make.
We want to be the place where ideas get energy and shape and a team known for expertise, courage and kindness.
• Deep-tech focus with AI, data science and innovation projects that matter.
• Bridge between science & industry. We turn state-of-the-art research into real systems.

Sparky* was created to connect deep scientific know-how with real business challenges. We’re a team of engineers, data scientists and product thinkers who wanted one thing: a focused innovation hub where complex problems, AI and data science are turned into reliable, real-world solutions.
