Robert Markič

IT Architect

Robert Markič has been in IT for more than 15 years. Before joining the sales department, he had gained more than a decade of on-field experience. He specialized in consulting, planning, implementing, and supporting solutions for storing and protecting mission-critical data for midrange and enterprise segments. He had also worked as an instructor for specialized Cisco MDS courses, delivering training around the world.

As a business development manager, Robert is active on two fields: within NIL he is involved in developing solutions for business continuity (DRaaS and BaaS), and on the market he is on the lookout for new opportunities. With his rich technical knowledge, he often helps with “translating” business needs into technical requirements. This is why his colleagues from sales often find him indispensable when in need for assistance in pre-sales activities.

But at the end of the day, Robert is an engineer at heart, which reflects in his free-time activities. Anything technical will catch his attention, and you can easily start a long conversation with him on anything related to cars and the auto industry. He also enjoys sports: in warmer periods you can find him biking and surfing, while in the winter he loves to ski.
