Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolOğuzhan Olguncu is a software engineer with nine years of experience building performant web platforms and developer tools, currently contributing to Unkey’s open-source API management platform. He has a track record of reducing load times and improving UX—most notably by refactoring Upstash’s console (Next.js 12→14) and implementing react-query caching to cut loading times by ~50%—and maintains high-traffic SDKs with hundreds of thousands of weekly downloads. Comfortable across front-end and back-end stacks, he has led migrations to microfrontends, designed Redis-backed caching systems to overcome provider limits, and moved long-running work to AWS to unlock new revenue. He mentors junior engineers, publishes technical blogs, and automates repetitive workflows (e.g., custom CLIs and internal monitoring tools) to boost team productivity. His open-source contributions include enhancing logging, filtering, and charting for an API management repo, demonstrating attention to observability and auditability that often sits behind polished products. Based in Istanbul, he blends pragmatic engineering with a hacker’s curiosity and a habit of documenting lessons for others.
