I build things from the bootloader up - JIT compilers, custom Linux daemons, and boards I probably shouldn't have opened.

• Building Yagent, a local-first AI agent in Go - own agent loop, memory, skills, codebase index and TUI (Ollama/llama.cpp by default, opt-in cloud APIs)
• Building Salca (in progress), a from-scratch C++/OpenGL isometric action slasher roguelike
• Pursuing a Master's in Management Information Systems @ Erciyes University, with coursework spanning strategic management, data analysis, and ML

• Hardware & Firmware: Board-level electronics repair, firmware reverse engineering, and giving dead hardware a second life - BIOS chip-level fixes, NAND recovery, embedded IR/RF protocol implementations, and a homebrew 8088 retrocomputer built from salvaged ICs.
• Embedded Linux & Drivers: Bringing up custom operating systems (postmarketOS, antiX) on non-standard/legacy mobile and tablet platforms, and writing custom Linux kernel drivers/systemd daemons to remap and control proprietary hardware.
• Automotive Hacking: Designing and building custom transistor-based level-shifter circuits to interface with and read K-Line diagnostic data directly from vehicle ECUs.

• Self-hosted services behind Cloudflare Zero Trust tunnels
• Multi-node Ubuntu setup with failover experiments
• Local AI inference (llama.cpp, Vulkan / ROCm benchmarking)
• DIY monitoring, automation, and service orchestration

• Feature engineering + model stacking (XGBoost, CatBoost, RF)
• AutoML experimentation (TPOT) and optimization pipelines
• Kaggle-style datasets and prediction systems
• Local LLM experimentation (quantization, GPU backends, performance tuning)
