Summary
Efe Seyitoglu is a software engineer with nine years of experience currently building at Yelp from the UK, blending full-stack web development with a strong background in applied cryptography. His MS in Computer Science and graduate research produced three publications and two patents for novel cryptographic tools he implemented in C/C++, showing research-grade rigor alongside production engineering. He has taught and mentored students in Java, Python and C/C++, guest lectured on blockchains and public-key cryptography, and brings that mentorship mindset to team leadership and code quality. Early career roles in defense and embedded systems (HAVELSAN, Aselsan) add systems-level discipline and a pragmatic approach to reliability and security. Colleagues can expect a developer who moves smoothly between low-level cryptographic primitives and full-stack product delivery, with a track record of turning academic ideas into implemented, patented solutions.
