Hi, I’m Özgür.

AI for Visual systems

My roots are in product strategy, UX and devleopment.

I specialize in managing the full design-to-delivery stack, from initial problem framing and system modeling to shipping interfaces and AI-driven interaction flows. I bridge traditional UI craftsmanship with AI orchestration, translating product intent into scalable design systems and intelligent, context-aware workflows.

My strength lies in executing across ambiguity by aligning UX, data, and automation into coherent experiences that ship quickly and continuously compound product value.

My Mission

To design and scale AI evaluation and automation practices through integrated AI workflows, information design, and visualization systems.

Model evaluation for Single Label Classification Tasks with Transformers Model

The overall goal of the intent classification task is to develop a machine learning model that accurately identifies the intent behind natural language statements within the enteral tube feeding domain. The objective is to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of customer service interactions by automatically routing input sentences to corresponding flow’s dialogue initiator.

Mapping the Hidden Networks of AI Harm

Project investigates how opaque AI systems generate real-world harms that individuals cannot contest, and connects these failures to gaps in the enforcement of the EU AI Act. By analyzing a curated database of 1,000+ AI incidents and 3,200+ entities, I have traced patterns of opacity in hiring, healthcare, and content moderation, revealing how corporate practices collide with regulatory obligations for transparency, risk management, and bias prevention.
