🚀 About Me & Academic Background

I am a 3rd-year Computer Engineering student at Eskişehir Technical University (100% English Curriculum) with a strong focus on Artificial Intelligence and Autonomous Systems. Unlike a traditional engineer, I combine my technical skills with strong communication and management abilities gained from my previous degree in Social Media Management (High Honor Graduate).

My passion lies in bridging the gap between software algorithms and the physical world. I don't just write code; I deploy it on drones, embedded systems, and real-world applications.


💼 Professional Experience & Leadership

Here is how I apply my skills in the field:

  • 🚁 Founder & Team Lead @ [KAYIUAVTEAM]:

    • Leading a multidisciplinary team to compete in SUAS 2026.
    • Developing autonomous flight algorithms and "Search, Detect, Deliver" missions using Computer Vision.
    • Managing both the software architecture and the mechanical operations as the Chief Pilot.
  • 📢 Official Youth Leader @ Ministry of Youth and Sports (GSB):

    • Actively volunteering since 2022 in major NGOs like TEMA, Kızılay, and Yeşilay.
    • Organizing social responsibility projects (village school visits, aid distribution) and leading youth camps.
    • Combining technical discipline with social leadership and crisis management skills.
  • 🎓 Instructor & Mentor:

    • Teaching Drone Piloting, 3D Printing, and Simulation at private institutions (e.g., Sakarya Schools).
    • Mentored international students in Romania, Bulgaria, Austria, and Kosovo during the Summer of 2025 on AI & Technology.

🛠️ Technical Arsenal

I specialize in building end-to-end solutions, from data analysis to edge deployment.

Domain Technologies & Tools
Languages Python Java C++
AI & Vision OpenCV PyTorch TensorFlow YOLO
Data Science Pandas NumPy Scikit-Learn
Hardware/IoT Raspberry Pi Arduino DroneKit
Dev Tools Git Streamlit Docker

🎯 Current Goals

  • 🚀 Immediate: Winning the SUAS 2026 competition with a fully autonomous UAV.
  • 🌍 Career: Seeking an Erasmus Internship to contribute to cutting-edge Computer Vision and Robotics projects.
