About Me

I build the parts of a product people never see, and care a lot about the parts they do.

Computer Engineering graduate from Trakya University, currently a Full Stack Engineer at PND Core, working across .NET and React — CQRS to keep read and write paths independent, and MagicOnion over gRPC for strongly-typed real-time communication between services and clients.

Before that, nine months at Senswise on a multi-tenant .NET architecture: CQRS and event-driven workflows, background jobs for scheduled tasks, RabbitMQ queues watched for stuck and failed messages, Elasticsearch for log tracking, and a steady diet of LINQ tuning and legacy refactoring. Two of the projects below started as internships — PowerPlantApp at Enerjisa Üretim, the sports club system at DSİ — which is where I learned that shipping something real beats reading about it.

I move to the frontend when a project deserves one: React, Next.js, Vue 3 and Tailwind CSS. I take freelance work too — Orliva Medikal's corporate site is a recent one, built end to end from catalogue structure to launch. Outside of shipping code I write technical articles on Medium — on CQRS, Keycloak identity migration, connection pooling and data structures — and for a couple of years I recorded test books aloud for visually impaired students.

Now
  • Full Stack Engineer at PND Core — .NET and React, CQRS on the backend, MagicOnion over gRPC between services and clients.
  • Getting Blossom onto iOS: landscape touch controls, and holding frame time on the mobile renderer without giving up the shaders.
  • Working through a data structures series on Medium — Big-O and array vs. linked list went up this month.

Experience & Education

Where I have been building, and what I was building with.

  1. Jul 2026 — PresentPart-time

    Full Stack Engineer · PND Core

    Working across the stack on .NET and React applications. Backend features are structured around CQRS so read and write paths stay independent, and MagicOnion over gRPC gives strongly-typed real-time RPC between services and clients.

    • .NET
    • React
    • CQRS
    • MagicOnion
    • gRPC
  2. Sept 2025 — May 2026Full-time · İstanbul, Türkiye

    Backend Developer · Senswise

    Worked on a multi-tenant architecture, applying CQRS and event-driven principles to manage asynchronous workflows, and built and maintained background jobs for scheduled tasks. Monitored RabbitMQ queues to identify message processing issues, analysed stuck and failed messages, and supported system stability through log tracking in Elasticsearch. Wrote LINQ queries, optimised data access performance and refactored legacy code.

Ders Ortağım

I recorded test books aloud for visually impaired students, turning printed practice material into audio they could actually study from. Accessibility stops being an abstraction once you have read a full exam paper into a microphone.
