01About

Engineering with the user — and the business — in mind.

I'm a software developer based in İzmir with five-plus years of experience shipping web products. My work spans banking, consulting and digitalization, for clients in Turkey, Denmark, Germany and Sweden.

Beyond writing code, I work closely with UI/UX teams on design, own SEO optimisation and talk directly with customers. I care about pages that are user-friendly, accessible and fast — and software that stays maintainable long after launch.

Weighing budget and scope, I help customers shape their roadmap: analysing the problems they have today and finding solutions that fit what they actually need.
