CodeChem

CodeChem CodeChem is a software development company, founded in 2015 and located in Skopje.

Our story
We started out as 7 people with only one thing in mind, to become proficient in building mobile apps and websites. We weren’t traditionally hiring, but we opened our doors to amazing like-minded people who strived for excellence.

─

By 2021 the company grew to +45 people hiring some of the best talents and worked successfully to put this talent into an environment that nourishes professionalism, a high degree of technology exploration, and applying the most sound SDLC practices in the industry. We have evolved a lot along the way, but one thing has stayed the same, the strive for excellence.

─

In a world of technologies, platforms, and frameworks expansion our main goal is to find the right balance between exploitation and exploration of our knowledge. The main reason CodeChem was founded was exactly this, to try and apply a working model where every individual will consider their job as:

- Lifelong learning;

- An art of creating the most elegant solutions to the problems they are faced with;

- Help their peers to achieve these ideals.

The way we work

We work transparently, we have regular knowledge sharing sessions, code reviews, and daily stand-ups means all the team members are well aligned and no one needs to reinvent the wheel when it comes to implementing a similar feature to already existing ones. We can count on shared knowledge and expertise from the rest of our team working on other projects.

Every year, we run the Skopje Marathon, and this year 60 of us somehow agreed to do it again. We had four relay teams, plenty of half-marathoners, a few brave first-timers discovering what 21K actually feels like, and Manuel, the only one who went for the full 42K. To be fair, he runs so much we’re pretty sure he could’ve done it in flip-flops. Somewhere around kilometre 18, cramps started blocking a few systems, but apparently not enough to stop us from filming a reel.

After the race came the the most important part: food, drinks, medals on the table, and everyone explaining exactly where it all went wrong or, surprisingly, very right. First half-marathons were celebrated, relay stories were compared, legs slowly stopped working, and by the end everyone was already talking like they might do this again. Thanks to everyone who ran, relayed, cheered, and joined us after. See you at the start line next year.🥰 🏃‍♂️ 🏃‍♀️‍➡️ 🎖️

Third year at What the Stack, first year going Platinum, and definitely our busiest one yet.🙌

Our stand had plenty going on, but Fool Cpt. Molecool quickly became the main challenge of the day. The goal was simple: prompt your way through three levels and convince the LLM to reveal each passcode. Plenty tried, one made it through the fastest and walked away with a prize. The rest walked away plotting better prompts for next year.✨

Alongside the challenge, visitors could play Astral Match and Matrix Shift from our Isotope Games studio, grab some CodeChem merch and, most importantly, help us get through a serious amount of doughnuts. 🍩 Judging by the number of coffee cups around the stand, the doughnuts had plenty of company. ☕

Beyond the stand, Nikola Dinevski moderated throughout the day, while our engineer Dushko Klincharov took the stage with “Harnessing the Model: What Coding Agents Are Really Made Of,” breaking down what actually sits behind coding agents.

Thanks to everyone from CodeChem who joined us at the stand, on stage, and throughout the conference, and to the What the Stack team for having us back for year three. 🤗❤️ Every year, the event gets bigger and more exciting, and we’re glad for the opportunity to support and give back to a community of learning, building, and pushing technology forward.

The “exit exam” was an web app that was already broken when they got the keys. 🔑🐛

Nikola Dinevski led the final intern session on Cloud & Stuff, starting with what the cloud actually is, how AWS is put together, and what the console, the CLI and the CDK are each for. He closed that half with three real app architectures and took questions as he went ☁️

Then the interns took over in pairs. Each team got its own AWS account with a small Shout-Out Board already deployed and already broken in three independent ways, and the only way out was to edit, deploy, refresh and repeat until the thing worked 🔁

Reading about the cloud is one thing. Having a broken deployment with your name on it is another ⚡

This was also the last session of the summer, which makes their onboarding officially complete. Not a bad note to end on 🎊🎓

Thanks, Nikola! 👏💙

What actually sits behind a coding agent?

Our engineer Dushko Klincharov is taking that apart at What The Stack: the agentic loop, tools, context, memory, permissions, and the verification that keeps it all in check.

If you use coding agents every day and want a clearer picture of what happens between your prompt and the diff, this is the talk to sit in on.

Nikola Dinevski is there from our side too, moderating Stage 4 all day. If you are following those sessions, he’s running the room and the Q&A, so bring the questions you actually want answered.

For the third year in a row, CodeChem is sponsoring What the Stack, one of the leading web development conferences in the region.

This year, we’re joining as a Platinum Sponsor. On September 19, you’ll find us at our stand at the Technical Campus in Skopje, alongside developers, speakers, and teams from across the web dev community.

Stop by, say hi, meet some of our engineers, learn more about what we do and what we’re best at, and keep an eye out for a small surprise we’re preparing this year. 🍩🎁

See you at What the Stack.

No slides for this one, just a terminal and a pipeline built from scratch. 💻

Gjorgji Dimeski ran yesterday’s intern session on CI/CD as a live workshop. First a deploy done fully by hand, then the same work handed over to a pipeline that builds, tests and deploys on its own ⚙️

Watching both back to back is the fastest way to understand why teams automate.

Thanks, Gjorgji! 👏🤩

“Just re-run it, it’s probably flaky.” 😄
We’re looking for the person who fixes the framework instead.

An SDET who builds and owns the test automation framework itself, not only the tests running inside it. E2E suites in TypeScript or C #, the test infrastructure behind them, and CI/CD integration that makes a failure mean something.

AI tools in the workflow are part of the picture too.

“That’s not my part of the stack.”
Yeah… this probably isn’t that role. 😄

We’re hiring a Senior Full Stack Engineer who’s comfortable going from frontend to backend, cloud infrastructure and CI/CD, and owning what they build in production.
AI tools and Agentic Systems are part of the picture too.

Install the runtime. Match the dependency versions. Configure the env vars and paths. Now do it again on the next four servers. 😅

David Dukoski led today’s intern session on Docker 🐳

That checklist, repeated under five servers on a single slide, was his case for containers. Then came the same picture with Docker, where one image everyone pulls and one docker run per machine replace the whole list.

The session went hands-on at the end, with a small backend built from a Node server and a PostgreSQL database 🧱

One image. One command. Identical behavior on every server, every time.

Thanks, David! 👏💙
