Hi, my name is Fatih! Nice to see you in here. I am a 22-year-old self-educated blockchain developer.
Started to Study Computer Engineering
I learned the basics of Computer science, like how computers and the internet work, and intro to some programming languages (C, C++, Python, C#, JS, etc.). I was very curious about Linux and its distributions. So, I have tried so many Linux distros, even Arch Linux. I have broken my computer so much and repaired it. Wanted to be a cyber security expert back then.
Search for a new beginning
In the beginning of the Corona Virus, I wanted to work on a different field rather than cyber security and started to trying new fields like Machine Learning, Big Data, and Blockchain. You know which one I chose.
First full-time job & freelancing
After learning lots of things, and working as a freelencar in a while, I got my first job offer from a company in Istanbul. We worked with them for 9 months as remotely. We worked mostly about popular standards like ERC-721, ERC-1155, ERC-20, EIP-712, etc.
But, working as full-time + freelance + learning new technologies burned out me. I can not keep the balance between job and life. This is one of the things I love and hate about me. In July, I was stopped working for anyone. After a few weeks, started to improve my web2 skills.
Back to work
In september 2022, I was a curious young and a little bit experienced developer. Freelancing taught me so many things (not all of them are technical). When i feel my burnout is over, I started to look for new jobs and found one of my current jobs. It is about EVM-based chains. This is the job I combined and matured my web2 and web3 skills.
After a couple of weeks that I found a job, one of the greatest persons I have met is offered me a part-time job which we were already talking for a couple of weeks. I told both my bosses about the other job and neither of them was a problem. Here is the main page of the part-time job that I have (full-time has no website for now).
I left the first job at the end of the February and started to work as an outsource with them. This is because, I could not find time to learn new things and work on my side-projects.
Present
Now, I am trying to improve my blockchain, design, math, and finance knowledge. I want to produce some projects and write more articles.
