Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolEmre Kaya is a product-minded software engineer with five years of experience building web-first systems and user-focused features from Turkey. Currently at QuestDB, he applies full-stack skills to high-performance time-series infrastructure after shaping management and observability tooling at Hazelcast. He has a track record of modernizing legacy stacks—migrating jQuery to React/TypeScript, shifting polling to event-driven WebSocket flows, and improving test speed and coverage—that drove measurable gains in memory, runtime, and reliability. At Jotform he moved features from PoC to GA and built middleware to cut redundant API calls, demonstrating a practical focus on efficiency and customer-driven development. Comfortable across Java, Spring Boot, React, and cloud-native tooling like Docker/Kubernetes and Prometheus, he blends backend systems thinking with front-end UX sensitivity. He graduated with honors in Computer Engineering from ODTÜ and often bridges product needs with technical execution to deliver meaningful user experiences.
