Designed and developed scalable backend services for ERP and financial management platforms used by thousands of enterprise customers across retail and manufacturing sectors. Built and maintained RESTful APIs and distributed services using Go and PHP, ensuring high availability and data consistency in production environments. Optimized critical database queries and backend workflows, improving API response times by ~35% through query tuning, caching strategies, and asynchronous background processing. Introduced Docker-based containerization and implemented GitLab CI/CD pipelines, reducing deployment times from hours to minutes and improving release reliability. Collaborated with DevOps teams to gradually transition legacy monolithic systems toward microservice-oriented architectures, increasing system maintainability, scalability, and fault isolation.

Led blockchain adoption initiatives within one of Turkey’s largest banks, designing and implementing enterprise-grade blockchain prototypes on Ethereum-compatible networks. Architected a secure blockchain-based settlement layer for internal banking operations, improving transparency, auditability, and traceability of inter-departmental transactions. Developed an internal blockchain simulator and testing framework to validate smart contract behavior, security assumptions, and edge cases prior to production deployment. Worked closely with cybersecurity, legal, and compliance teams to define technical standards for smart contract audits, transaction monitoring, and risk mitigation. Contributed to pilot programs integrating Decentralized Identity (DID) solutions into KYC workflows, reducing customer onboarding time by ~25%.

Designed and scaled backend architectures supporting millions of transactions per day for one of the largest e-commerce platforms in the region. Led the development of high-throughput distributed systems using Go, gRPC, and event-driven architectures built on Kafka and Redis Streams. Implemented asynchronous processing pipelines to improve system resilience, throughput, and fault tolerance under heavy traffic loads. Led a cross-functional engineering team focused on reliability engineering, observability, and performance optimization. Standardized monitoring and alerting across production environments by integrating Prometheus and Grafana, enabling real-time visibility and faster incident response. Drove cloud infrastructure optimization initiatives across AWS and DigitalOcean, achieving a ~22% reduction in infrastructure costs without sacrificing performance or reliability. Acted as a technical decision-maker for backend architecture, infrastructure strategy, and long-term scala
