Istanbul Technical University, M.S. in Computer Engineering (with thesis)
I'm a software engineer working across backend systems, web, and mobile, currently building full-stack products at Nextarp. My work spans production systems, CI/CD, security automation, and increasingly agentic AI workflows. Alongside work, I'm pursuing a thesis-based M.S. in Computer Engineering at Istanbul Technical University. Outside of work and research, I compete in Kaggle machine learning competitions and enjoy building products end to end.
