About Me

Hi there, my name is Mert.

I graduated from Yildiz Technical University with a bachelor’s degree in Geomatics Engineering. Later, I started a master’s degree in Geodesy at Bogazici University and completed all the coursework, but I didn’t finish my thesis. During my studies, I gained strong skills in problem-solving, algorithmic thinking, and data analysis through projects in GIS and geodetic techniques.

Over time, I shifted to software development and gained experience in industries like gaming, IT, R&D, insurtech, and e-commerce. I’ve worked on projects like hyper-casual games, machine learning tools, user-focused e-commerce platforms, and scalable systems for digital transformation. I have expertise in JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Vue, Next.js, Node.js, and I’m skilled in tools like Git and Docker.

I enjoy working with teams to build solutions that are efficient and easy to use. I focus on developing high-quality software that solves real-world problems. These experiences have helped me manage projects that drive business growth while using modern development practices.
