Work Experience

Master’s Thesis: Repository-Level Code Generation Research at Technical University of Munich (TUM)
June 1, 2025 - October 10, 2025
Developed semantic-tree-based hierarchical retrieval and code generation system using LLM-based retrieval and prompt engineering techniques. Achieved 0.46 pass@5 on RepoExec benchmark (vs 0.32 baseline). Outperformed dense RAG baselines using 13×fewer LLM calls.
NLP Engineer (Part-time) at Fast AI Movies
February 1, 2024 - October 10, 2025
Fine-tuned Llama2-13b and LeoLM-13b models for e-learning script generation. Used BERT to predict special token positions and align them between inputs and outputs for coherence. Employed Hugging Face Transformers framework.
ML Intern (Part-time) at Hypnotes
November 1, 2021 - October 10, 2025
Developed real-time emotion recognition using MobileNet and EfficientNet B2. Deployed model into video conferencing app.
ML Intern (Part-time) at Hyrai
November 1, 2021 - October 10, 2025
Built job-resume matching with SpaCy, NER, and Jaro-Winkler similarity. Optimized multithreaded parsing for production.
ML Intern (Part-time) at UrbanicFarm
March 1, 2021 - October 10, 2025
Built tomato disease classifier with EfficientNet using PyTorch, OpenCV, Tensorboard.
Hybrid Mandatory Intern (Full-time) at ULAKBIM
October 1, 2021 - October 10, 2025
Worked with Pardus Linux, shell scripting, ISO image building.
Onsite Mandatory Intern (Full-time) at ASELSAN
August 1, 2021 - October 10, 2025
Built two-way XML–Excel Interface Control Document converter in Python for embedded systems team.
Master’s Thesis Researcher at Technical University of Munich (TUM)
June 30, 2025 - October 10, 2025
Developed semantic-tree-based hierarchical retrieval and code generation system using LLM-based retrieval and prompt engineering techniques. Achieved 0.46 pass@5 on RepoExec benchmark (vs 0.32 baseline). Outperformed dense RAG baselines using 13× fewer LLM calls.
