Hi, my name is

Ediz

I'm a computer science student at University College London with some free time to build pretty much whatever, from full stack applications to video games.

About Me

Software engineer with a strong foundation in AI, cybersecurity, and full-stack development. Skilled in Python, Java, and C, with experience building user-focused machine learning systems, secure web applications, and responsive front-end interfaces. Driven by a commitment to responsible AI and building scalable tools.

Currently, I am pursuing a BSc in Computer Science at University College London (tracking for a First Class 1:1)

I've worked on the software of companies like HubSpot, done cybersecurity at Barikat, and assisted programming modules at UCL.

Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:

  • JavaScript
  • React
  • Java & Spring Boot
  • Python
  • C / C++
  • SQL
