More about me: Earlier in my career I started to play around PHP and web front-end, then switched to Apple techstack & I worked as an iOS Engineer in the fintech industry @Procenne, where I helped build the Istanbulkart app, which has over 1 million monthly active users in Istanbul, Türkiye. I also built an NFC SDK from scratch for iOS that allows users to top up transportation smart cards.

I then relocated to Bruchsal, Germany, and joined the eVTOL company @Volocopter as a Mobile Tech Lead, where I worked on the customer booking app and the pilot briefing app.

Now, I’m a founder and lead software engineer @ DamasTechnologies, building our own mobile apps and also providing training in team building and strategic decision-making.
