Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlper Karayaman is a Senior Software Development Engineer with 8 years of experience building high-performance backend systems and cloud-native infrastructure. He specializes in Python (including modern migrations from 2.7 to 3.13), Django, FastAPI, and Google Cloud Platform, and has a track record of dramatic latency improvements (up to 170x) and full legacy modernization. At AloTech he architected scalable contact center solutions serving thousands of concurrent users, introduced async patterns (asyncio, httpx, NDB async) to remove I/O bottlenecks, and established a rigorous testing and load-testing culture with 100% code coverage and Locust-based simulations. He’s pragmatic about operational resilience—containerizing services for Cloud Run, replacing Memcached with Redis, and upgrading critical drivers like psycopg3 for better performance. Based in Balıkesir, Turkey, he combines deep systems-level optimization with strong documentation and API-first design, quietly turning deprecated platforms into robust, production-ready services.
