Fikret Gencer is a data scientist and machine learning engineer with nine years of experience bridging embedded systems, solid-state device physics, and AI-driven solutions. He holds dual strong technical foundations in Electrical/Electronics Engineering and Physics (high GPAs) and a master's focus in EEE, which inform his work across firmware, sensor-driven products, and production ML. Fikret has progressed from hands-on embedded development and semiconductor TCAD internships to leadership roles in AI—serving as Head of AI at Sensemore and most recently as a Data Scientist at Trendyol after a stint as Senior AI Engineer at Huawei. His background includes real-world embedded deployments (drone inspection pathfinding in C++ on Linux) and designing analog layouts and SAR ADC building blocks, giving him rare end-to-end fluency from circuit to model. Comfortable shipping scalable ML in industry and optimizing low-level systems, he excels at turning physics-informed insights into deployable AI products. Based in Istanbul, he combines research-grade rigor with product-focused delivery across startups and larger tech firms.
