Berk Şefkatli is a software engineer with nine years of industry experience and seven years focused on cloud-native web applications, primarily building Java microservices and reactive REST APIs. He has a strong track record of performance and cost optimizations—most notably improving API response times by 20x versus legacy Azure Functions and retroprocessing terabytes of images in under a day. Comfortable across the stack, he deploys services to Kubernetes with Helm, Argo and GitHub Actions, uses Terraform for infra-as-code, and implements observability with Datadog and PagerDuty. His background spans industrial IoT, e-commerce, and startup environments where he led automation, A/B testing, and third-party integrations using Kafka, Redis, CosmosDB and PostgreSQL. Based in Ankara, he combines pragmatic engineering with system-level thinking and a penchant for turning operational pain points into automated, scalable solutions.
