Hi, I’m Burhan Günay. I’m a software professional with 16+ years of experience delivering scalable backend and full-stack solutions across fintech, e-commerce, and insurance domains. I’ve built and led projects using Java, Kotlin, Node.js, TypeScript, and modern cloud-native stacks (AWS, Google Cloud), with Kubernetes, Docker, and CI/CD workflows. I enjoy collaborating with cross-functional teams to design robust architectures, mentor junior developers, and continuously improve development processes. Outside of work I love traveling, photography, snorkeling, and exploring the outdoors with family and friends.
