I build and secure production software, end to end.

Software engineering graduate working across DevSecOps and AI-enabled full-stack development. I designed and shipped Express Ops, an operations platform a tour operator's team uses every day.

03 / how it's shipped

Security and delivery are part of the build

Express Ops

  • Every push and PR runs a dependency audit, lint, unit tests, typecheck and a production build.
  • A green push to main deploys the same commit to the production host over SSH, then verifies the sign-in endpoint.
  • Recent audit failures (ip-address, undici advisories) were patched via lockfile-only updates.

Viya

  • Clerk authentication with tenant-scoped access controls in the Convex backend.
  • Sentry across browser, server and edge runtimes, plus the Python service, with documented privacy rules.
  • Separate local, staging and production stacks; local backend and dashboard bind to loopback only.

Gravel

  • Defensive by design: every tool request passes scope validation and operator approval before it runs.
  • Emergency stop and an audit trail of what ran.
  • Cargo workspace with format, clippy and test commands as the quality gate.

05 / about

Who's behind the code

I graduated in Software Engineering from Nişantaşı University in 2026. Before that I spent a year as a UI/UX and front-end developer at Fyluim, a web3 and trading-bot company.

Since July 2026 I've been the sole developer on Express Ops for a tour operator: from the first schema to the CI pipeline that deploys it. I care about the unglamorous half of software: audit gates, tenant isolation, observability and safe defaults.

I'm also a Certified Ethical Hacker (2026), and I build tools that put guardrails around AI agents.
