About

About Me

I'm a Senior Software Engineer with 9+ years of experience in full-stack development, specializing in Big Data technologies, AI/ML solutions, and cloud platforms. I build scalable applications and intelligent systems that drive business value.

My expertise spans across AWS and GCP, where I design and implement real-time data processing pipelines, fraud detection systems, and AI-powered applications. I've delivered 50+ projects ranging from small business solutions to enterprise-scale data platforms.

Beyond engineering, I lead technical strategy and engineering teams as a co-founder at TechBros, FraudFlow.ai, and Buildra Labs. I focus on building high-performing teams, establishing engineering best practices, and translating complex technical concepts into business value. My leadership philosophy centers on empowerment, clear communication, and creating environments where engineers can do their best work.

I combine software engineering best practices with data science to create innovative solutions that solve real-world problems efficiently.

Beyond Work

Outside the Code

Building Community

I co-founded TurkCollab, a non-profit online community connecting Turkish professionals and students abroad. Our mission is to facilitate experience sharing, networking, and building a strong professional network.

From business leaders to academics, artists to entrepreneurs, we bring together a diverse range of experts living abroad, creating opportunities for collaboration and mutual support.

Learning & Interests

I spend most of my time learning new things. When I'm not coding, you'll find me reading about history and philosophy, or rewatching The Lord of the Rings for the umpteenth time.

Community Building

Building connections and fostering collaboration among professionals is something I'm passionate about. TurkCollab is one way I contribute to that.
