About
Operations are decided before the day is known. I build tools that decide well anyway, and show their working: routing, fleets, capacity.
Where the problem started
A location problem with real traffic, real distances and a budget that never stretched far enough.
Industrial Engineering at Boğaziçi Üniversitesi in Istanbul. The thesis placed electric-vehicle charging stations across the city. It is the same question Charge Smart asks today, from the van's side instead of the city's.
Numbers people actually read
A chart nobody understands is a chart nobody acts on.
A data journalism site that told stories with public data and reached over 300,000 views. Every figure on this site is written as a sentence first and a number second.
Learning what a decision costs
A method is only worth its complexity if it beats what a good practitioner does on a normal Tuesday.
An M.Sc. in Management and Technology at TU München: operations and finance next to the engineering, which is where the habit of asking "and what does the baseline do?" comes from.
Shipping to real users
Users do not care how elegant the model is if the button is slow.
Full-stack developer at a Munich product studio, React and NestJS. That is where the demos' rule that everything runs in the browser, instantly, comes from.
Where the plan meets the day
Big systems, slow data, and people who need an answer before lunch.
Automation engineer, building end-to-end workflows on enterprise systems: Angular front ends, Java services, Camunda processes and SAP integration, now in a pilot with internal users at a large telecom.
What comes next
The future is a distribution, and every branch of it points up.
This site is the first step: demos you can play against a fair baseline, free tools that do one logistics job properly, and writing about the decisions behind them. Everything is checked against an independent solver and published with its limits written down. The next steps are bigger than the frame.
