Go (Golang), concurrency, cloud, containers, backend development
I work with Go. I am one of the top 1% Go answerers in stack overflow. I am the author of the book "Effective Concurrency in Go" from Packt Publishing. Before starting my own company working on privacy technologies, I worked for Red Hat for over a decade where I developed back-end frameworks and services using Go and Java. I developed several open-source frameworks and tools (lightblue, jcliff, took, watermelon, etc.) I can diagnose and solve many back-end programming problems in Go, especially related to concurrency and code architecture. I can help with the overall architecture of distributed systems, database related problems (especially with Mongodb), containers (Docker), Kubernetes, JSON/XML, text processing, data processing applications, gRPC, API development, REST, data structures and algorithms.

I love building and reviewing/troubleshooting Go programs, and teaching Go. I am one of the top 1% answerers of Go questions in Stack Overflow. I built microservices and distributed APIs using REST and gRPC, JSON/XML processing applications, command-line tools, configuration management tools using Go. I especially enjoy problems related to concurrency.

I have ongoing sessions with Burak for Golang tutoring. He is kind, expert, and enthusiastic about the material. I can tell from his presentation that he's spent a lot of time thinking about how to teach go. I recommend Burak for any go related teaching and troubleshooting tasks.

Burak is pretty incredible at walking me through go and pairing with me. His knowledge of go is deep and his teaching style is very clear, soo looking forward to continuing on a regular pace with sessions, if you have a go problem or just want to level up your go knowledge, Burak is an amazing person to get access to.
