I’m Nedim, a Backend Engineer who loves building reliable, automated, and scalable cloud-native services. I’ve been doing this backend stuff for over 4 years. I mostly tinker with Go, Node.js, Kubernetes, and AWS.

Projects

OTel Map
An open-source tool I created to generate OpenTelemetry service maps. It helps visualize distributed traces, because blindly staring at raw JSON logs eventually makes you go crazy.

What I do

I’m all about creating robust REST APIs, event-driven architectures, and domain-driven systems. Lately, I’ve been super focused on observability to make sure everything runs smoothly in production without waking me up at 2 AM. Sleep is important.

Tech I enjoy:

Languages: Go, TypeScript, C#, Ruby (the classics never die)
Infrastructure: Kubernetes, Docker, AWS (specifically ECS & Fargate, because managing my own servers sounds like a nightmare)
Observability: OpenTelemetry, Metrics, Distributed Tracing, Logging (so I can actually see what broke)
Tools: GitLab CI/CD, GitHub Actions, Linux (and a lot of StackOverflow)
