About

Principles

• I build systems that outlast their builder.
• I prefer explicit trade-offs over hidden complexity.
• I measure decisions by what remains true in five years.
• I write code for the engineer who inherits it.
• I ship early, document always, and iterate with evidence.

Current Focus

Building AI-powered applications and automation systems. Working with TypeScript, Astro, and modern web infrastructure. Exploring how language models change product engineering workflows.

Working Style

I work best in small teams with clear ownership. I prefer async communication with intentional sync points. I make decisions under ambiguity by identifying the reversible choice and shipping it. I optimize for long-term maintainability over short-term velocity.

Tooling

Languages: TypeScript, Python, Go. Frontend: Astro, React, vanilla CSS. Backend: Node.js, edge functions, serverless. Infrastructure: Vercel, AWS, Docker. AI: OpenAI API, LangChain, vector databases. I choose tools based on team context and project constraints, not personal preference.

Outside of Work

I read engineering and systems literature — infrastructure papers, language design, and historical software decisions. I build side projects to test ideas before recommending them. I speak Turkish and English.
