I love exploring many areas of computer science, learning new concepts and technologies, fullstack development, system design and machine learning being my primary intesrests. I constantly develop software as a hobby and look forward to carrying my skills to professional world.
EDUCATION
Yeditepe University
Computer Engineering · 2026Graduated from Yeditepe University with a degree in Computer Engineering in February 2026. During my time at university I was a board member of the Yeditepe Computer Society (2023–2025) and a member of the Chip Design Team of the Automotive Club.
Yeditepe Computer Society
Board Member · 2023 – 2025Played a key role in the educative events of the society as a tutor in various workshops, lecturing freshmen on Python, Algorithms, and Fundamentals of Computer Science. Developed a team management app for the internal use in the stıdent club.
Automotive Club — Chip Design Team
Team Member · 2023 – 2025Selected by the Head of Computer Engineering Department to join the Chip Design Team within the University’s Automotive Club. Gained hands-on experience with hardware design and embedded systems concepts alongside cross-disciplinary engineering peers.
EXPERIENCE
Token Financial Technologies
Software Design Intern · Jun – Aug 2025Built an internal URL shortener service to be used by company employees in their daily workflow. Integrated custom company modules for consistent error handling among company codebase, delivered end-to-end tests to ensure product reliability, and handed over the project alongside a full API documentation prepared with Postman.
KEY HIGHLIGHTS
System Design
Designed the architecture for the URL shortener by evaluating tradeoffs of various design choices. Chose Redis as the primary database over a relational database + cache setup to maximise retrieval speed for an internal high-frequency use case. Implemented server side redirections to prevent XSS vulnerabilities which could occur with client side redirections.
Scrum & Agile
Participated in sprint ceremonies, daily stand-ups, sprint planning, and retrospectives, working within a cross-functional engineering team and adapting to an existing company codebase.
End-to-End Testing
Implemented E2E tests prior to shipping the service, ensuring reliability and correctness of the full request-response cycle before handover to our DevOps lead for deployment.
API Documentation
Prepared detailed API documentation using Postman covering all endpoints, request/response schemas, and error codes, enabling smooth handover and future maintenance by the team.
PROJECTS
URL Shortener Service
URL shortener built with NestJS and Redis, featuring server-side redirects, high speed long URL retrieval and short code generation with NanoID.
NeuralArt
A photo galery app where users can apply artistic styles to their photographs using neural style transfer and store them in their library.
Attention Net
CNN-Transformer hybrid encrypted network traffic classifier model and a real time analysis dashboard.
Photonamer
CLI tool for autonomous image file renaming based on the date, subject, mood and compositional technique using a vision language model .
