About

As a Data Scientist and AI Engineer with over four years of experience, I currently work at Turkish Airlines Technology across large-scale data, machine learning, and production AI systems. With a background in Artificial Intelligence and Data Engineering at Istanbul Technical University, my experience spans machine learning, computer vision, data engineering, and AI infrastructure, with a focus on building reliable systems for real-world use.

In parallel with my industry work, I co-found and build AI-focused products and startups, taking ideas from early concept to fully working products. For example, SPOT is an AI-powered basketball video analytics platform that turns raw full games into automated statistics, shot maps, and highlights; as its founding AI engineer, I built its core system end to end, from data and model development to custom algorithms, GPU inference, and production deployment. Another example is EComGen, a generative AI platform for e-commerce that I built from the ground up, combining AI generation with a complete SaaS product.
