DevOps & Platform Engineer based in Istanbul. I design, automate and operate platforms for critical workloads, where reliability, security and cost all matter.
What I do
- Container platforms in the cloud and on-prem, mostly for real-time, high-volume services
- Automation for provisioning, configuration and releases, across clustered, multi-datacenter server environments
- Monitoring and logging, including pipelines that handle billions of logs
- Incident response, with reviews that look for the cause, not just the fix
- Migrations of infrastructure, services and data, planned to keep downtime low
- Security and compliance baselines, built together with development teams
A few years of experience across several domains, mostly fintech. I'm interested in distributed systems, blockchain and on-chain infrastructure, and observability for AI agents and the systems around them. I write about what I learn, on resilience, logging and cloud.
hashspan: OpenTelemetry instrumentation for viem, the Coinbase CDP SDK, x402 and MPP. It traces the transactions and payments that AI agents and services send, keyed by tx hash. 🌐 hashspan.dev · 📦 npm
↳ hashspan-lab: runs agent scenarios on a local chain with a telemetry stack and Grafana dashboards. One command, no key needed.
awesome-agent-observability: a neutral list of resources for observing AI agents, with an OpenTelemetry focus. It covers standards, instrumentation, platforms, evaluation, cost, safety signals, and on-chain agents and payments. 🌐 Website
benchmarks: developer tools measured side by side, with the scripts to run each test yourself. So far it covers vector search and LLM trace size.
claude-code-kit: small, measured Claude Code add-ons (status line, hooks, skills and agents), also packaged as a plugin marketplace.
kafka-financial-event-platform: an enterprise-style stock-exchange event platform on Kubernetes, built from scratch with every decision recorded. 📖 Read the docs
