Hi, I'm
Halil İbrahim Kurnaz
I build agentic AI systems and production-ready GenAI platforms, from scalable RAG pipelines to multi-agent orchestration and real-time voice AI.

A little about who I am
Shipping AI that actually works
2+
Years of experience
“I'm an AI Software Engineer specializing in agentic AI ecosystems, backend architecture, and production-ready GenAI platforms. I architect scalable RAG pipelines, multi-agent orchestrations, and robust tool-calling workflows that turn raw LLM capabilities into real, enterprise-grade products.”
Most recently I was a Backend AI Engineer Intern at FlyRank AI, shipping AI-native backends with custom RAG pipelines, tool-calling workflows and five production-pattern services. Alongside that I lead FlowOne, an AI agent orchestration platform, and PinMind, a LangGraph-based multi-agent framework. Right now I'm also in TurkNet's product management bootcamp, sharpening the product side of building AI.

Technologies I work with
What I bring to the table
A toolbox refined across full-stack engineering, cloud infrastructure and AI/agentic systems.
AI & Agentic Systems
LLMs, RAG and multi-agent systems in production.
Selected work
Three products I designed, architected and shipped. Open a case study for the full stack, architecture and decisions.
Lead Architect & Developer
FlowOne
Lead architect of an AI-native SaaS platform with Agent Studio, Workflow Studio, and Voice AI. Real-time WebSocket voice pipeline (STT → LLM → TTS) with ElevenLabs and Twilio, omnichannel integrations, and a multi-tenant FastAPI backend.
More work
Backend services, applied models and research built alongside the flagship products. Every item links to its source.
FlyRank backend track
Embeddable Widget Platform
A lead-capture platform customers embed with a single script tag. Every submission is validated, spam-filtered, rate-limited, enriched and surfaced in a dashboard. Built as the backend track capstone.
Asynchronous PDF Reporting
A reporting pipeline that turns database records into analytical summaries, renders PDFs in the background, stores the artefacts and serves them behind secure access.
Background Job Processing
A worker system for operations too slow to sit inside an HTTP request, covering model calls, report generation and bulk file work, with retries and status tracking.
Task API
A FastAPI CRUD service on PostgreSQL with Supabase authentication and JWT-protected routes. Runs locally or as a full stack through Docker Compose.
Web Scraping Pipeline
A polite scraping pipeline that honours robots.txt, parses and normalises page content, then writes structured records ready to use as a dataset.
Products & platforms
CareerMatch AI
A career management platform that analyses CVs, scrapes job listings, matches them against a profile and keeps candidates informed through an assistant and notifications.
Dental Analysis Platform
A dental health platform that reads clinical imagery with a trained model and turns the findings into structured, readable reports.
griOS Telemetry
An autonomous orchard monitoring system built on LoRaWAN sensor nodes and real-time cloud analytics for precision agriculture.
Applied ML & research
Cardiomegaly Detection
A deep learning model that detects cardiomegaly from chest X-rays at 0.87 ROC-AUC. It forms the MVP core of a virtual doctor assistant.
ML & NLP Case Studies
A portfolio of applied case studies that moves from classical machine learning through to transformer models.
NLP Experiments
Text preprocessing, tokenisation, sentiment analysis and related experiments built with NLTK, spaCy, TextBlob and Transformers.
Image Enhancement
MATLAB and Python implementations of contrast enhancement, haze reduction and brightening, using histogram stretching, adaptive equalisation and gamma correction.
Put my profile to the test
An assistant grounded in my resume, case studies and shipped code. Paste a role and it answers here, in seconds, including where I fall short.

Where I've worked
September 2026 to November 2026
Product Management Bootcamp Participant
TurkNet
A six-week product bootcamp led by industry practitioners: the full product lifecycle from discovery to growth, customer discovery and user journey mapping, Agile/Scrum, MVP scoping, API fundamentals and AI in product management, ending in a team case study and product pitch.
June 2026 to September 2026
Backend AI Engineer Intern
FlyRank AI
Architected AI-native backend services with custom RAG pipelines and multi-step tool-calling workflows, with fallback paths so provider failures never drop a request. Shipped 5 production-pattern projects: 7 modular services, 13+ REST endpoints, Zod/Pydantic validation, rate limiting, tenant isolation, background workers with retries and idempotency, and 22 integration tests.
November 2025 to February 2026
AI Engineer
AI Business School
Developed a generative AI website builder and agent/workflow studio that turns natural-language prompts into production-ready websites and automated workflows, engineering backend integrations with Node.js and streamlining the platform's architecture.
October 2024 to January 2025
Business Analyst & Conversational AI Designer
CBOT
Designed complex conversational flows and optimized backend NLP/AI workflows, directly improving chatbot accuracy and user engagement while collaborating with cross-functional teams on data-driven enhancements.
