Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolEge Aytın is a product-focused software engineer and co-founder with 7 years of experience building scalable authorization and enterprise software. As Co-Founder & CRO of Permify (acquired by FusionAuth) he helped develop an open-source, Zanzibar-inspired authorization-as-a-service aimed at fine-grained access controls. He blends hands-on back-end development—refactoring core permission and relationship logic—with product leadership and go-to-market responsibilities. Previously he co-founded a product agency delivering ERP systems and worked across DevOps and .NET API projects, giving him end-to-end delivery experience. Based in San Francisco, he combines engineering rigor from academic studies in computer and industrial engineering with practical system design. Notably, his open-source contributions emphasize clarity and maintainability in complex authorization codepaths rather than superficial feature work.
