I am Yusuf Celikkiran, a senior Computer Engineering student currently pursuing a master's degree in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics. I am passionate about technology and innovation, and through continuous learning I have developed strong technical skills via trainings and seminars. I have extensive experience in frontend development with React, backend development with Django, and cloud computing solutions with AWS. Additionally, I specialize in natural language processing (NLP), Python-based deep learning, and artificial intelligence, focusing on creating innovative and impactful solutions. Led the avionics team in designing flight control and telemetry systems. Integrated sensors (MPU9250, BMP280, GPS) with ESP32 and implemented LoRa, UART, RS232 communication. Developed embedded software for telemetry data formatting and integrity. Built a real-time ground control interface using Python (PyQt5) for live data visualization. Collaborated with propulsion and recovery teams for full system integration. Worked with C/C++, Python, and Arduino environments.
