Solution architecture
Making sense of brownfield systems, defining service boundaries, breaking up monoliths when it helps, and keeping APIs predictable so teams stop arguing about them.
Cloud & hybrid
Solution architect & software engineer
I build practical, reliable platforms.
Hi, I’m Fatih. I’ve spent the past 14+ years shaping solution architecture, cloud platforms, and integrations so product teams can keep shipping without drama. I still dive into the code, still draw workflows on real paper when screens get crowded, and I’ve learned that steady delivery starts with plain language and honest expectations.
How I help
Architecture, delivery, and enablement
I start by listening, map what’s really happening in the stack, and turn those notes into plans that engineers, ops, and product folks can live with. I stay close to delivery until the platform is running in production, because the truth always shows up there.
Modern engineering
Kubernetes, infrastructure as code, observability stacks—mostly the boring but important things that keep cloud-native platforms stable without turning your engineers into full-time ops.
Platform & delivery
AI & data foundations
Event streams, search tooling, and lightweight ML pipelines. Useful intelligence, grounded in real data, no hype needed.
Intelligence
Leadership & mentoring
Working with founders and teams to keep priorities clear, remove the small roadblocks before they grow, and share enough context that everyone knows why the work matters.
Enablement
Project memories
Work that shaped my perspective
A few projects that reminded me why clear interfaces, dependable data pipelines, and honest communication matter more than slogans.
Document intelligence platform @ Eaglessoft
Led a multi-tenant integration hub that ingested documents from ERPs, SaaS tools, and partner APIs, then routed them through validation, PEPPOL, national gateways, and auditors. Predictable workflows turned chaos into calm.
Retail analytics platform @ Modulairy
Pulled ERP and e-commerce data into a single analytics platform with forecasting and alerting. Retailers finally had one dashboard that matched what the stores felt.
SaaS modernization @ Mantis
Helped teams move oversized monoliths into modular SaaS and FaaS components. Releases got lighter, on-call rotations calmed down, and customers noticed.
