What I'm looking for
I'm building REST APIs and backend applications with TypeScript, NestJS, PostgreSQL, and Prisma while studying Computer Engineering at METU.
During my internship at the National Aerospace Science and Technology Park's Centre for Artificial Intelligence & Computing, I built linear regression and gradient descent algorithms from scratch and collaborated on training an AI model using Python and Matplotlib. I also participated in code reviews and worked with a five-person team to improve code quality and performance.
I've built practical full-stack and backend projects, including a CRUD blogging platform, a RESTful to-do list API with authentication and validation middleware, and an ISS weather tracker that integrates multiple real-time APIs.
I'm interested in backend engineering, API design, and building reliable software systems. I'm open to part-time, remote projects and internships.
