I joined TAPI Croatia in 2021, right after graduating from university, and began my career in a production role. Today, I work as a Production Technologist, where I am responsible for overseeing specific products and monitoring manufacturing processes. My responsibilities include creating production plans, leading technology transfers, conducting process and cleaning validations, introducing new equipment, managing deviations, and designing and implementing corrective and preventive actions. I also update standard operating procedures (SOPs), train production personnel, and mentor junior colleagues.
In 2023, I was promoted to a position with greater responsibility. While the core functions of my role remained the same, this promotion was a meaningful recognition of my capabilities and my ongoing commitment to the team.
What makes TAPI Croatia unique for you?
I truly feel the team spirit and community here. We constantly share knowledge, celebrate successes together, and every contribution is equally valued as we work to deliver the highest quality products.
What motivates you to come to work at TAPI every day?
The purpose behind our work is what drives me-we create ingredients that matter to people around the world. I’m also inspired by the people I work with and the opportunity to grow.
What advice would you give to a young professional thinking about joining TAPI?
