Message

At Turna, I own key areas of a production React Native platform, from technical design and implementation through API integration and release. I designed a modular mobile architecture that contributed to an approximately 30% improvement in application performance.

Through consulting, I led frontend and mobile delivery for clients including Edenred, Anadolu Sigorta, Fibabank and Setur. I also built Node.js/Express services for real-time video and consultation systems, integrating WebRTC and Jitsi communication flows.

I created NativeKeel, developer tooling that analyzes React Native and Expo projects for upgrade, dependency, native configuration, security and production risks. I’ve also developed Momercy, a multi-platform product spanning mobile and web that reached 150K+ installs, and built applications across mobile, web, backend and cybersecurity.
