Hi, I'm Aytaç
IT veteran with 20+ years of experience. Specialized in cloud platforms, modern data platforms, Lakehouse architectures, and AWS-to-Azure transformations.
person Who I Am
IT veteran with 20+ years of experience in complex enterprise environments — from on-premise infrastructure through cloud migrations to AI-driven architectures. My journey began with Active Directory and SharePoint, evolved through semantic web technologies, and now sits at the intersection of data lakehouses, Agentic AI, and cloud-native platforms.
My approach: structured precision, pragmatic solutions, no unnecessary overhead. Whether it's AWS-to-Azure migration, SaaS platform engineering, or data strategy — I build systems that last.
