Ekim Karabey is a software engineer with nine years of experience building full-stack and backend systems across startups and large platforms, currently working on Ads products at Google in Seattle. A Queen’s University computer science graduate, he has shipped features at Shopify and contributed to platform and orders/inventory systems, co-founded a bootstrapped Airbnb-style storage startup, and worked in data engineering and teaching roles early in his career. Ekim’s background spans product-facing delivery and infrastructure—comfortable moving between frontend, backend, and data concerns—and he favors pragmatic, well-tested solutions. He maintains a personal site showcasing projects and has an unexpected literary touchpoint: a fondness for Catcher in the Rye, which often surfaces in how he communicates about engineering tradeoffs.
