Özen

AI Engineer & Full-Stack Developer · Istanbul, Turkey

I build AI products end to end — LLM integrations, RAG pipelines, MCP servers and multi-agent workflows — on top of six years of full-stack work across .NET, Node.js, Angular, React and Flutter. Four apps of mine are live on the App Store; I run my own infrastructure and billing.
