Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolVolkan Yılmaz is a software engineer based in Berlin with 8 years of experience building mobile and embedded systems, currently shaping device control features for Fire TV at Amazon. He brings deep Android expertise—Kotlin, MVVM/MVP, custom views, ExoPlayer and JNI/FFmpeg—and a practical background in IR, HDMI-CEC and persistent services for consumer devices. His earlier work spans startups and enterprise: developing media apps, on-device deep learning for sketch/object recognition, and ML-driven automation for banking. Comfortable across the stack, he combines algorithmic rigor and data-structure sensibilities with hands-on product launches (including new Fire TV Cube and 4K sticks). Colleagues know him for turning complex hardware–software integrations into smooth user experiences and for iterating quickly in both startup and large-company environments.
