He held pro-Austrian politicial views and was a close associate of Toma Vučić Perišić.
He attended high school in Timișoara and went to study law in Budapest.[2] In 1834 he arrived in Serbia and was appointed clerk at the chancery of Prince Miloš Obrenović.[3] In 1839 he returned to the Prince's chancery, only to witness the coming to power of the Karađorđević dynasty headed by Prince Alexander Karađorđević, who accelerated Aleksa Janković's career.
As of 1864 Janković became an honorary member of the Society Of Serbian Letters, which later became the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts.[4]
