Problem Solver

👋 Hello, I'm Cihan

I'm a builder, problem-solver, and constant explorer who believes technology should make us more human, not less.

I've spent my career creating digital products and exploring how technology can make life simpler, not more complicated. Over the years, I became fascinated by how AI can help us make better, fairer decisions — especially in work and hiring.

I believe technology should amplify what makes us human: curiosity, creativity, and connection. That belief guides everything I build.

💡

How I Work

I focus on turning complex ideas into meaningful, usable products. My approach combines empathy, structure, and a strong belief that innovation only matters when it helps people.

My Thoughts & Writing

I like to think and write about human-centered AI, product culture, and the intersection of people and technology.

🧠

"AI Should Empower, Not Replace!"

We often talk about AI in terms of efficiency, automation, or cost reduction.But somewhere along the way, we started asking the wrong question — “How much of a person’s job can we replace?”

⚡

"Why Speed Doesn't Always Mean Progress"

Challenging the startup culture of "move fast and break things" and advocating for thoughtful, sustainable innovation.

🤝

"Building Products That People Actually Trust"

A deep dive into creating transparent, ethical technology that earns user trust through design and honest communication.
