About

From game servers to mobile apps: systems that run in production.

Since 2015 I have worked on game servers, community platforms and web services. I started as a technical platform specialist at Nitrado Türkiye; in 2018 I founded projects.gg, grew it from a single Minecraft game mode into a multi-mode gaming network, and I run its server infrastructure, databases and player community. Since 2026 I have led the mobile and backend work on KPSS Zamanı, an app for candidates preparing for Turkey's civil service exam. I completed my computer engineering degree in 2025 in Antalya Bilim University's fully English-taught programme.
