🛰️ Executive R&D Engineer

I am an Autonomous Systems R&D Engineer engineering software architectures where real-time determinism, low latency, and robust physical safety are paramount. My core research and development work bridges autonomous vehicles (Autoware / AWSIM), aerial defense & UAV interception systems (PX4 / ROS 2), and high-bandwidth digital twin telemetry interfaces (React Three Fiber / Three.js / WebSockets).

Where My Engineering Focuses:

  • Autonomous Driving & Ground Mobility: Autoware.Universe software stack, AWSIM digital twin simulations, Lanelet2 HD map processing, ego-trajectory generation, and in-vehicle 3D digital twin cockpit visualization.
  • Aerial Autonomy & Counter-UAS: Optical-seeker kinetic anti-drone systems (pure vision-based 3D tracking & terminal sprint), PX4 Autopilot SITL, MAVLink telemetry pipelines, custom Ground Control Stations (BagdarGC / QGroundControl), and competitive dogfight autonomy (TEKNOFEST Savaşan İHA).
  • Edge Perception & Real-Time Computing: Real-time Linux (PREEMPT_RT), zero-copy DDS middleware (CycloneDDS), NVIDIA Jetson edge compute (TensorRT FP16 / CUDA), LiDAR/Camera extrinsic calibration, and multi-threaded C++20 nodes.
  • Modern Web & Mobile Product Ecosystems: End-to-end full-stack architectures, award-winning agricultural platforms (TEKNOFEST 1st Place), NestJS microservices, React Native mobile clients, and high-frequency financial dashboards.

🚀 Highlighted R&D Systems & Engineering Work

1. Autoware Autonomous Driving & 3D In-Vehicle HMI Digital Twin

Real-time autonomy perception-to-cockpit visualization pipeline interfacing with Autoware.Universe and digital twin simulations.

  • In-Vehicle 3D Cockpit: Built autoware-hmi-visualization using React Three Fiber, Three.js, and TypeScript to render ego-vehicle dynamics, Lanelet2 vector roads, lane markings, surrounding environment blocks, and planned trajectory ribbons in real-time.
  • Bridge Architecture: Designed a low-latency pipeline connecting Autoware Odometry, Trajectory, and Lanelet2 MapBin topics through a C++ map adapter and a Python ROS 2 / TF bridge transmitting normalized JSON over WebSockets.
  • Simulation Validation: Integrated testing workflows connecting Autoware with AWSIM digital twins and Gazebo environments for closed-loop trajectory following.

2. Counter-UAS / Anti-Drone Optical Seeker & Kinetic Interceptor

Autonomous hit-to-kill interception system operating on pure visual feedback without ground-truth coordinate cheats.

  • Optical Seeker Guidance: Integrated a 20° elevated seeker camera on a custom PX4 airframe in Gazebo. Utilized OpenCV HSV masking and contour moments to extract tracking errors ($e_x, e_y$) and convert them into 3D Line-of-Sight (LOS) rate commands.
  • Breadcrumb Dead Reckoning & Terminal Ramming: Designed a coordinate breadcrumb memory system; if the target executes an evasive maneuver outside FOV, the interceptor maneuvers towards the last calculated spatial trajectory, reacquires visual lock, and initiates a terminal sprint at 25+ m/s (90+ km/h) for kinetic neutralization.
  • Simulation Bridge: Developed a high-frequency C++ bridge (gz-transport to OpenCV) processing live camera feeds and contact sensor telemetry at sub-millisecond cycles.

3. Savaşan İHA / Aerial Combat Autonomy & Ground Station Tooling

Autonomy software suite for competitive multi-UAV mission management and dogfighting.

  • Mission Execution & Visual Lock: Developed state machine sequencers handling autonomous takeoff, waypoint routing, computer-vision target detection (YOLO/OpenCV), and active target tracking over MAVLink/Pixhawk.
  • Custom Ground Control Stations: Engineered custom GCS tooling (VaryansGC & BagdarGC) based on QGroundControl architecture for real-time mission telemetry, command injection, and fail-safe oversight.
  • Repositories: varyans · varyans_workflow · VaryansGC · Teknofest-SIHA-Goruntu-Isleme-Gorev-Yazilimi

4. FarmerAI Platform (🏆 1st Place — TEKNOFEST)

Award-winning full-stack agricultural ecosystem connecting producers, consumers, and supply chain administrators.

  • Backend Architecture: Robust NestJS REST API with JWT authentication, RBAC authorization, Swagger OpenAPI documentation, and comprehensive automated test suites (Jest/Supertest).
  • Data & Caching: PostgreSQL persistence layer managed with Prisma ORM, automated migrations, Redis caching, and Docker Compose orchestration.
  • Mobile Experience: Cross-platform React Native / Expo application with Redux Toolkit state management and offline-first synchronization.
  • Repositories: FarmerAIMobileApp · RestApiFarmerai · FarmerAIOCR

5. Spatial Perception & Sensor Calibration Tooling

Perception and robotics experimentation packages for multi-modal sensor suites.

  • LiDAR-Camera Calibration: tetra_calibration — Extrinsic calibration pipeline aligning 3D LiDAR point clouds with 2D optical cameras for fused spatial projection.
  • Autonomous Simulation: Tetra_Otonom — ROS Noetic / Gazebo simulation implementing spatial obstacle avoidance and LiDAR-driven state machines.

6. High-Performance Financial Dashboard (trading-viewer)

Interactive multi-panel financial market analytics interface.

  • Architecture: Next.js App Router, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS.
  • Performance: High-frequency chart controls, validated input parameters, and modular UI components engineered for minimal re-renders.
  • Repository: trading-viewer

  • Deterministic Real-Time Discipline: Prioritizing predictable loop frequencies (SCHED_FIFO, PREEMPT_RT), bounded heap allocations in real-time control paths, and explicit fail-safe state machines over unvalidated abstractions.
  • Simulation-First, Hardware-Proven: Validating sensor degradation, DDS QoS latency, and edge cases in digital twins (AWSIM, Gazebo Harmonic, SITL) before conducting flight tests or physical vehicle trials.
  • Hardware-Conscious Edge AI: Optimizing neural network inference via TensorRT FP16, implementing zero-copy pipelines, and respecting memory bandwidth and thermal limits on NVIDIA Jetson SoCs.
  • End-to-End Architectural Integrity: Bridging low-level C++ drivers and robotics middleware seamlessly with high-bandwidth 3D visualization and cloud/edge interfaces.
