Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolOrkun Duman is a software engineer, architect, and two-time founder with 11 years of experience building consumer apps, platform services, and experimental OS work. After a senior engineering tenure at Google working across Search, Fuchsia, Discover, and GenAI initiatives, he shifted to entrepreneurship—co-founding Chunky Tofu Studios (mobile games and utility apps) and now Cytara. He blends systems-level engineering (cryptography, distributed services, Linux/Kubernetes) with product instincts honed from launching high-retention games and consumer utilities. A UC Berkeley CS graduate with internships at Apple and Microsoft, he pairs deep technical chops with an appetite for learning business and go-to-market skills. Notably, he signed up for a voluntary exit to spend focused time building startups, signaling a deliberate move from big-tech scale to product-driven entrepreneurship.
