I am a Computer Engineer and Software & AI Engineer focused on building intelligent, production-ready software systems that combine artificial intelligence, computer vision, backend services, cloud technologies, and modern user-facing applications. Currently, I work as an AI Software Engineer in the health technology sector, where I contribute to the development of medical diagnostic software. My work primarily involves Python-based software development, computer vision and deep learning, as well as designing desktop applications using Qt/QML. I develop software that integrates AI inference, application logic, data processing, device communication, and real-time visualization into complete and reliable products. A significant part of my experience is centered on turning AI models into usable software rather than treating them as standalone experiments. I have worked on the development and optimization of computer vision models, integration of AI pipelines into desktop applications, and deployment of software on platforms such as NVIDIA Jetson and Raspberry Pi. Beyond AI and desktop development, I have experience in backend and cloud-based software development using Python, APIs, databases, and AWS services. I am particularly interested in software architectures that connect AI applications with backend systems, cloud infrastructure, and modern web technologies. I also develop independent software products. I created arzederim.com.tr, a full-stack financial and IPO tracking platform involving modern web technologies, backend services, data processing, databases, caching, and automated data pipelines. I also develop and maintain melihekizce.com, my personal software engineering and AI portfolio platform, where I showcase my projects, research, and technical work. Alongside professional software development, I actively work on AI research and participate in technology competitions and hackathons. My areas of interest include computer vision, deep learning, Generative AI, Vision-Language Models, multimodal AI, backend systems, cloud technologies, and building scalable AI-powered software products. My main focus is software engineering: designing, developing, and delivering complete systems in which AI becomes a practical and reliable component of a real-world software product.
