Hakan Alpay is a Full Stack Engineer with nine years of experience building high-impact web and mobile features at scale, currently at DoorDash after key engineering roles at Meta where his work touched billions of users. He shipped core products like the Facebook iOS share sheet (used hundreds of millions of times daily), group fundraisers across web and mobile, and end-to-end encrypted media storage for Messenger, pairing product-facing engineering with rigorous experiment design and analysis. Comfortable across languages and stacks—Objective-C++, React/Redux, GraphQL/Relay, PHP, Flask, Angular, and Docker—he moves between frontend polish and backend data models with equal fluency. He also incubates campus-focused projects (Bmaps/Mappening) that gained rapid local traction, showing a knack for product intuition and grassroots adoption. Proficient in running large A/B tests and drilling into metrics, Hakan combines data-driven decision-making with a hands-on craftsperson’s approach to shipping reliable, user-facing systems.
