What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to innovate and solve real-world engineering challenges while working in a collaborative environment.

I am an embedded systems engineer with a strong passion for modeling, simulation, and control systems. Currently, I am working at Repkon, where I focus on trajectory generation and control algorithms for industrial machinery. My academic journey includes a master's thesis on the design of control architectures for Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC) in connected autonomous vehicles, which showcases my commitment to advancing technology in real-world applications.

Throughout my career, I have gained valuable experience through internships at various esteemed organizations. At WOTA, I developed a control system for chlorine injection pumps, while at nPro Energy, I created a Python-based calculation model for PV-solar thermal collectors. My time at Roketsan allowed me to work on missile flight dynamics, further enhancing my skills in modeling and simulation. I am excited to leverage my expertise to tackle complex challenges and contribute to innovative solutions in the field.
