a bit about me

index

I am a full stack developer in Istanbul. I work on a live cryptocurrency exchange at TRA Tech, and most of my day is on the backend. A lot of that work is moving .NET services from old versions up to the newest ones, and keeping the data layer fast enough that nobody has to think about it.

On the frontend I turn designs into working code, keep those projects current, and use the newest tools. A large part of the job is security: integrations and user flows that follow the rules regulators set. Third party integrations are another area I have experience in: bank connections, mail and SMS services, and liquidity providers.

Next to all of this I build my own side projects. Answhere, an iOS app, is the one that shipped, and I will keep building for mobile.
