About

Engineering story

I have spent more than 14 years building software systems, moving from enterprise application development and backend engineering toward cloud-native architectures, DevOps and AI-powered software development.

My path started with ERP applications and a business-critical fund pricing system in banking. At Siemens in Istanbul I automated testing for industrial software such as TIA Portal and Sinumerik Edge. At Sioux Technologies in Erlangen I worked as a backend-focused full-stack developer, test automation engineer and DevOps engineer — including a migration from AWS to on-premise Kubernetes.

Today my focus is the intersection of software engineering and artificial intelligence: building reliable AI applications, agentic workflows and production-oriented systems rather than isolated prototypes.

Since July 2025 I have concentrated on career development alongside family responsibilities: German certified at B2 level (now working towards C1), the Azure AI Fundamentals certification and hands-on AI projects using a range of learning resources.

Engineering philosophy

Automate the feedback loop

Automated tests and CI/CD pipelines catch problems while they are still cheap to fix — from GUI tests for TIA Portal to integration tests for microservices.

Decide with prototypes

A focused proof of concept turns a technology debate into evidence — as with the Blazor WebAssembly evaluation that set the front-end direction.

Own the delivery

From user story to deployment: I care about the whole lifecycle, including the pipelines and infrastructure that ship the code.

Keep learning deliberately

New technology is learned in practice and backed by certification — from Python certifications in 2019 to Azure AI in 2026.
