@alperyazr
I build reliable, low-latency backend and real-time systems using C++, Go, and Python.
What I'm looking for
I lead backend development for Afiniti’s Mega ACD platform, building high-availability services for real-time agent communication across distributed systems.
I architect microservices using REST, WebSocket, and gRPC, design shared-memory communication for low-latency paths, and integrate OpenAI-based services through reliable Python integrations. I also provide technical leadership through architecture decisions, code reviews, mentoring, benchmarking, and production-focused performance optimization.
Previously, I built real-time drone ground-control software at STM and large-scale rail simulation systems at Savronik, including train physics, signaling, scenario control, reporting, and ERTMS-compliant analyzer modules used by Turkish Railways for professional training.

Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
• Lead the design and development of backend services for the Mega ACD platform, enabling real-time agent communication across distributed systems.
• Architect and maintain high-availability microservices supporting REST, WebSocket, and gRPC protocols.
• Design shared-memory (SHM) based inter-service communication to minimize latency in performance-critical execution paths.
• Own service-level arc
Senior Software Engineer at Afiniti, contributing to backend development and distributed systems.
• Developed Qt/C++ based Ground Control System (GCS) for real-time drone mission planning and execution.
• Implemented telemetry visualization and map-based mission control features.
• Worked on safety-critical defense software under strict reliability and quality standards.
• Collaborated closely with avionics, hardware, and systems engineering teams.
Designed and implemented large-scale train simulation systems covering 1,200+ km of rail network.
• Developed dynamic mathematical models for realistic train physics and behavior.
• Built Scenario Control (Instructor Station) systems to manage simulation flow, events, rules, and signaling.
• Implemented analyzer modules supporting ERTMS-compliant behavior.
• Developed reporting and scoring systems
Intern at TUBITAK, gaining practical experience in a research environment.
