Software engineer · Istanbul
I lead engineering at 100Facets, on a team of four, where a self- and peer-assessment has to become coaching a person can use. I own the retrieval, the agents, and the scoring. Before that I spent three years at Paeezan Studio in Tehran, the last of them as lead, on the servers for a live multiplayer game.
The recent work is TypeScript, Python, retrieval, and agents. The work under it is still Kubernetes, and whatever has to stay up when the model has a bad day.
An assessment should end as advice a person can use, not a score they file away.
I own that path. Retrieval sits under the agents and the scoring, in TypeScript, NestJS, and Python on Kubernetes, so the model is reading that person’s self- and peer-assessment. A held-back answer comes back as a line they can use.
A sentence, hidden in code, with no timer.
A clock would have turned the pattern into a race, so the solve stays open. Persian sentences sit behind a letter-and-number code. I co-own it, and I lead the backend, the AI, and the infrastructure. It is on Cafe Bazaar, with 26k downloads on Myket.
Dots and boxes, played live against someone else.
The game lives on a table, with a pencil. I co-founded it and lead the engineering. Unity on the client. Node.js and MongoDB microservices underneath, self-hosted with Docker. It is on the App Store.
The servers behind a turn-based multiplayer game with a million downloads.
I took those servers and moved the live game onto a new cluster without taking it down. Microservices with gRPC under the matches. In the seventeen months I was lead, logging and monitoring cut incidents by 40%, and the cluster held at 99.9%. The container work from 2021 to 2023 cut yearly server costs by 25%.
Roles and dates. The projects above carry the stories.

Microservices with gRPC. Container work across these two years cut yearly server costs by 25%. Shared GitLab and Owncloud for about fifty people at the studio.
Caloria · Tehran
Real-time nutrition search on Elasticsearch, at 99.9% across the two years. The last four months overlapped my start at Paeezan.
Habita · Tehran
Co-founded a habit tracker for Android and iOS. It ran through Caloria and into my first month at Paeezan. Three of us. 10k downloads in the first three months, with friends and a leaderboard.
Cube Heads · Remote
Real-time socket services during the degree, on a team of three. I wrote services and reviewed the code.
Education B.Sc. Computer Engineering, Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman, 2016–2020. Teaching assistant for the fundamentals course, 2018–2019.

Writing, 2023
One thing each, from people who managed the work or sat next to it.
He took a complex, research-driven vision and turned it into working AI systems, with full ownership and almost no oversight.
The most impressive backend and DevOps engineer I’ve worked with. What sets him apart is his reliability.
He solved the problems and handed the mobile team documented services, often before we had asked.
A role, a collaboration, or a question about the work.
