Engineering that starts with the customer
The path
I started in biomedical engineering in İzmir, added a master's in engineering management in Istanbul, then crossed fully into software with a second bachelor's in software engineering at Snow College (GPA 3.55 — data science, web development, and entrepreneurship emphases). Three degrees, two countries, one consistent thread: building technical things that non-technical people depend on.
Why forward deployment
Everything I've shipped that mattered was built in the room with its users — enterprise IT portals demoed to directors every two weeks, clinical dashboards shaped with therapists, and FireFly Stack products scoped at my clients' counters. I speak Dari, Pashto, English, and Turkish, and I've built AI products in those languages for people who were locked out of English-only software. Discovery, demos, training, support — that's not overhead around the engineering. It is the engineering.
Now
Today I run FireFly Stack LLC from Utah — 15+ businesses subscribe to software I build and operate — while engineering analytics systems for a behavioral-health program at Oxbow Academy. I'm looking to bring that founder-grade ownership to an AI application, solutions, or forward-deployed engineering team.
