About

Greetings, I'm Yusuf.

I'm Yusuf. Over the course of my software career I've had the chance to work across many different domains — banking, e-commerce, payment systems, DevOps, data analytics, computer vision, and large language models — and that variety taught me to look at every problem from more than one angle. These days, most of my energy goes into Agentic AI; designing and building multi-agent systems is what excites me most right now.

Knowledge is to know — and to know is to know yourself.

What we can build together

If you have an idea, you're in the right place.

Website design

Modern, fast, responsive personal and corporate sites — from design through deploy.

E-commerce platforms

Payment integration, inventory, microservice architecture — end-to-end builds.

Warehouse management (WMS)

Inventory flow, barcoding, reporting — translating operational rhythms into software.

Chatbots & AI

RAG pipelines, agent architectures, LangChain/LangGraph. Assistants tied to real workflows.

Custom backend solutions

APIs, microservices, automations — designed to the need, no further.

For website design, e-commerce, warehouse management, chatbots, or a tailored backend solution — feel free to reach out.

Ozvia AI - Enterprise AI Chatbot Platform

A Turkish-language, AI assistant platform that lets organizations across sectors — from municipalities to businesses — deploy AI chatbots customized to their own data and workflows. Each organization can manage its knowledge base, FAQs, and operational flows (intake, inquiries, appointments, customer routing, and more) from a single panel, while end users reach the assistant directly on WhatsApp without installing any extra app. Powered by a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) backbone, answers are grounded in the organization's real data, minimizing hallucination risk. The platform is under active development with a modular, scalable architecture designed to support a wide range of use cases.

WMS & E-Commerce Platform - Integrated Warehouse Management and Online Storefront

A fully custom, from-scratch platform built for online product sales and inventory management, with in-site customization tailored to every product type. It unifies a warehouse management system (WMS) and a customer-facing e-commerce storefront on the same backend. Inventory, product, order, and customer data are kept in a single source of truth - every action a warehouse operator performs on the panel is reflected on the storefront instantly. Powered by a Java Spring Boot monolithic backend and a modern Next.js frontend, it brings B2B operational needs and the online sales channel under one roof. The project is under active development.

GateGuard - UHF RFID + Computer Vision Powered Smart Access Control System

GateGuard is a supplementary desktop application that extends an existing Moonwell access control deployment with computer vision and smart alarm layers. It tracks vehicle and personnel passages in real time via UHF RFID, automatically verifies incoming vehicles with a custom-trained license plate recognition model, and analyzes perimeter cameras to detect unauthorized human crossings, suspicious movement, and burglary attempts. When a threat is detected, it directly triggers the alarm in the security cabin. All of this runs alongside the existing MDB database and field hardware - without touching either.
