03 / About

I’m a Business Analyst with a BSc in Mechanical Engineering from METU and an MSc in Management from TUM. My background combines analytical engineering with business strategy, management consulting, operations management, digital transformation, and data-driven decision-making.

At Infineon, I work on market intelligence, competitive benchmarking, commercial strategy, and demand forecasting. At Amazon, I mapped enterprise supplier processes, gathered stakeholder requirements, and developed KPI dashboards to support process transformation. My earlier roles focused on operational excellence, business requirements, and manufacturing performance.

I approach business challenges through structured analysis: understanding stakeholder needs, identifying performance gaps, evaluating improvement opportunities, and translating evidence into actionable recommendations. As the founder of IRAS Games, I apply the same approach to business strategy, user feedback, A/B testing, and operational priorities.
