About Me

A little bit about who I am and what I do

Ankara AI Hackathon 2026
3rd Place Award

Ankara AI Hackathon 2026

February 5-6, 2026

We secured 3rd place among 33 teams with our project TornaPro.

I laid a solid foundation for my software engineering career by working on 5G core network modules and database kernel developments at industry giants like Huawei and ULAK Communications. While actively continuing my professional journey in the corporate world, my passion for creation has led me to build my own venture projects as a hobby. I enjoy transforming my technical depth into side ventures that produce scalable and innovative solutions to real-world problems.

Our 3rd place ranking among 33 teams at the Ankara AI Hackathon 2026, organized in collaboration with BTK Academy and Ucanble Technology on February 5-6, is the freshest fruit of this vision. "TornaPro", which I developed with my teammates Mehmet Akif Duman and Uğur Özdemir, reduces the quoting processes in the machining industry from days to seconds by automating them with artificial intelligence.

I continue my journey not just as a software engineer in the corporate world, but also as a creator who transforms technology into added value through hobby ventures.

If you didn't document your work, then it never happened.
