About Me
I am a 22-year-old Computer Engineering graduate candidate at Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat University (ALKÜ), currently in the graduation phase. As a multidisciplinary systems engineer, my core focus lies in architecting scalable, resilient backend services and bridging hardware with cloud intelligence through distributed telemetry pipelines. My primary software ecosystem is driven by Node.js, Express.js, and C# (.NET), backed by robust relational database design across PostgreSQL, MariaDB, and MySQL. Beyond application layers, I have practical experience deploying production environments on Linux (Ubuntu) VPS setups using PM2 and Caddy (SSL/TLS), alongside modeling enterprise process workflows on Bimser Synergy. My capabilities extend deeply into embedded IoT systems—having architected low-power mesh networks with ESP32 and LoRa (SX1278), as well as evolving the autonomous B&R Breeze platform from an ESP32-S3 and React Native micro-rental prototype into an enterprise facility automation ecosystem. Driven by technical leadership honed as a competitive TEKNOFEST Team Captain and Founding President of the ALKÜ Water Sports and Diving Club, I am eager to bring this end-to-end engineering portfolio into an impactful engineering role.

Projects
ESP32 & LoRa Based Wireless Communication Network
Designed and prototyped an end-to-end, low-power, long-range wireless mesh communication network utilizing ESP32 and LoRa SX1278 modules. Integrated a wide range of hardware components and sensors including an IMU, RFID reader, DFPlayer audio module, OLED display, PIR, LDR, passive buzzers, and LED buttons. Developed custom data-routing and hardware control algorithms to seamlessly process sensor data and establish robust device-to-device communication.
Yunusemreyurdu Dormitory Management System
Built a full-featured management system with an Express.js backend and EJS, CSS3, JavaScript on the frontend. Implemented a secure user authentication/authorization flow and a real-time notification subsystem triggered via a custom Telegram Bot API. Managed relational database schemas (MySQL & PostgreSQL) and deployed the architecture on a Netcup VPS.
Baran Çelik Portfolio
Developed a dynamic personal portfolio website using Express.js, Sequelize ORM, and EJS templates for seamless server-side rendering. Created a secure, dedicated admin dashboard for real-time content management, wired to a Telegram Bot for instant logging and interaction alerts. Fully deployed and managed on a private VPS.
Depotut Commercial Storage Rental
Developed a clean, high-conversion storage unit leasing web application using PHP and HTML. Optimized the user experience (UX) to guide prospective clients smoothly through booking multi-sized storage spaces with a modern and aesthetic interface design.
Vito
Conceived and engineered within a strict 24-hour timeline during the MEXT Lovable Hackathon using Vibe Coding methodologies, **VITO (Virtual Image to 3D Outfit)** is an AI-driven Virtual Try-On SaaS and embeddable SDK designed to drastically curb e-commerce return rates by replacing static sizing charts with dynamic fitting experiences. Operating as a plug-and-play Iframe/Web Component integration for major platforms like Trendyol and Amazon, the system combines rapid application scaffolding via Lovable, generative 2D-to-3D garment reconstruction with the Fal.ai API, and a robust Supabase backend secured by Row Level Security. On the consumer side, VITO generates a parametric SMPL digital twin tailored to biometric measurements while enabling real-time, in-browser AR fitting powered by MediaPipe Pose tracking; simultaneously, it provides an automated merchant onboarding pipeline that converts multi-angle apparel photography into high-fidelity `.glb` meshes in seconds.
iSmuggle Social Media Optimizer
Developed a mobile application using React Native focused on optimizing image and video rendering algorithms specifically for social media uploads. Implemented custom media processing flows to preserve high visual quality while drastically reducing file constraints for background transfers.
Notoryum Academic Marketplace
Architected an e-commerce and listing platform allowing university students to monetize academic notes, post assignment/thesis tasks, and trade study materials. Integrated a personalized real-time messaging interface to facilitate fluid communication and negotiation between student buyers and sellers.

B&R Breeze V-01
B&R Breeze V1.0 delivers an end-to-end autonomous micro-rental workflow by integrating hardware, mechatronics, and cloud infrastructure: when a user selects a sunbed and completes payment via the React Native (Bare CLI) mobile app—optimized with Zustand for lightweight state management—the Supabase PostgreSQL backend updates the session under strict Row Level Security (RLS) policies while serverless Edge Functions handle business logic, triggering the Wi-Fi/HTTPS-connected ESP32-S3 edge controller to disengage the servo lock, actuate a DC motor mechanism to automatically deploy a fresh hygienic sheet, and continuously process pressure telemetry from strategically embedded FSR (Force-Sensing Resistor) weight sensors to flag real-time capacity violations such as multi-person occupancy or unpaid usage.
B&R Breeze V-02
B&R Breeze V2.0 scales the platform into a centralized enterprise ecosystem engineered for facility operations and closed-loop fleet management. The entire system architecture and technical pipeline have undergone a complete redesign compared to V1.0; detailed technical specifications remain confidential as the proprietary technology is currently undergoing the patent application process.
