Hey, I’m Eyyup.

I’m a backend engineer who enjoys building systems that are reliable, practical, and easy to reason about.

Most of my work is around Java, Spring Boot, Kafka, distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, and payment platforms. I like taking complicated backend problems and breaking them down into something clear.

Outside of engineering, I’m a dad, I like learning new things, and I’m always thinking about projects, business ideas, cars, and ways to build something useful.

What I write about

Backend engineering, Kafka, system design, payments, interviews, and lessons from building software.

How I think

Keep things simple first. Make them reliable. Then scale carefully.

Why this site exists

A place to share what I’m learning, document projects, and build a stronger engineering portfolio.
