Ertugrul Yilmaz is a pragmatic software engineer with over a decade of hands-on experience designing and operating large-scale, cloud-native systems across startups and enterprises in the UK and Turkey. He has led platform migrations, built event-sourced microservices, and shipped real-time data pipelines using Scala, Java, Go, Kafka, Kubernetes and AWS/GCP—most recently contributing to platform work at Meta. Comfortable as both an architect and a hands-on implementer, he has driven cultural change around TDD, CI/CD, code review and DevOps in teams he’s led. His background includes founding a comparison e-commerce product, running engineering at scale (600+ server migrations) and delivering recommendation and tracking systems with near-realtime requirements. Known for rapid learning and pragmatic trade-offs, he often combines engineering rigor with cost and availability optimizations that materially reduce downtime and operating expense. Outside work he identifies as #cloud, #reactive and entrepreneur — and balances engineering with being a dad.
