About
I’ve spent over 17 years immersed in the world of databases—designing them, managing them, and ensuring they run smoothly like a well-oiled machine. My journey began in Turkey and has brought me to Canada, where I’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with incredible teams at companies like Nylas and J.D. Power. Each role has been a stepping stone that has sharpened my skills in everything from MySQL sharded DB clusters to AWS and Google Cloud databases. One of my proudest moments was leading the installation of a complex MySQL sharded DB cluster at Nylas that improved our data retrieval speed by 40%. It was a challenging project that required not just technical know-how but also teamwork and communication across departments. I thrive on these challenges because they push me to grow while helping my team succeed. In my role as Staff Database Engineer at Nylas, I focus on performance tuning and troubleshooting for various database services including RDS Aurora and DynamoDB. I’m passionate about optimizing systems so they can handle large volumes of data efficiently—something I’ve done successfully by reducing downtime by 30% through proactive maintenance strategies. Outside of work, I’m currently preparing for an Artificial Intelligence Certificate at Toronto University. This endeavor reflects my commitment to lifelong learning and staying ahead in this ever-evolving field. When I'm not buried in books or code, you might find me volunteering at local tech meetups or mentoring aspiring database professionals.
