Back to original languageAbout Murat
I am Murat AVCI, asenior web architectand interim CTO withover 15 years of experiencein **designing and developing custom applications**. I don't just write code: I align technology with strategy, structure development practices, and build things that last.
My primary playground isReact, React Native**, and **Node.js**, which I master thoroughly, from **architectural choicesto the most advanced production optimizations. I have led high-volume platforms with up to 2 million monthly visitors, with sufficient knowledge of AWS infrastructure and Docker to collaborate effectively with DevOps teams and make **sound architectural decisions**.
I am acertified Stripe architectand have designed payment solutions for several clients **exceeding one million euros in revenue**: complex billing flows, subscription management, webhooks... The payment aspect of a product is often the most daunting, and that's exactly where I excel.
Beyond code, I regularly act as aninterim CTOfor large teams and hyper-growth startups. I have supported organizations in demanding contexts: **team rebuilding**, **skill enhancement**, migration of **critical platforms**, and transformation towards international architectures. I know how to take charge in complex situations and get teams moving again.
My background spans diverse sectors such as VoD, GovTech, PropTech, and FinTech, which has taught me to quickly gain expertise in any business domain while maintaining a constant architectural standard.
