About

Engineering depth. Design craft. Healthy paranoia.

  • 01Ship for the first week, not the keynote.
  • 02Attack your own work before anyone else does.
  • 03The scroll and the query deserve the same care.

I'm a software engineer in Ankara, finishing a B.Sc. in Software Engineering at Atılım University while shipping to real people: an app for anyone navigating life in Türkiye, a healthcare review engine, a crafts marketplace, and hardened APIs.

I work the whole stack, from the scroll on the screen down to the query on the server, and I hold both to the same standard. I'm CVSS v4.0 certified and I run my own products through the same scans and threat models I'd run on anyone else's.

I write and speak Arabic and English, live in Turkish, and design for right-to-left as a first-class direction rather than a mirrored afterthought.
