Necmettin Karakaya is a CTO and serial founder with a decade of hands-on experience building scalable, test-first full-stack and AI-native systems. He designs and ships production-grade serverless and microservice architectures (AWS Lambda, Kubernetes, Docker) while leading teams through rapid growth and operational complexity. His recent work focuses on turning fragmented knowledge into structured, retrievable context for AI workflows—running CTO roles and founding AI startups that bridge narrative memory, retrieval, and execution. Equally comfortable in TypeScript/Node.js, Go, and Java stacks, he emphasizes compact, isolated code and ubiquitous testing as the backbone of reliable systems. He has scaled consumer AI products (300→80K paying users) and built platforms for no-code AI workflows and digital autobiography, revealing a blend of product intuition and deep technical craft. Based between Oregon and Singapore, he pairs startup grit with enterprise experience delivering data-intensive systems for clients like 3M, Koch, and Arizona State University.
