Hakan A.
Last position:
Senior Software Engineer — AI Evaluation & Benchmarks at Diversido
- Provided technical leadership for a 4-engineer team delivering 3 major client platforms in 12 months with microservices architecture and scalability solutions — 100% of scoped majors shipped ahead of schedule vs. planned milestones (baseline: prior releases often slipped 1–2 sprints).
- Ran AI model evaluation and model outputs evaluation on LLM/AI vendor APIs: safety, completeness, instruction adherence, and groundedness review before go-live; cut escaped bad outputs in AI-integrated release checklists from recurring UAT findings to near-zero on final promote.
- Drove API development and performance optimization for payment, exchange, and AI services; fail-closed error handling and payload validation reduced integration rework cycles by ~35% vs. the first AI integration pass.
- Applied software testing, testing frameworks, code quality assurance, and code refactoring with continuous integration gates; first-pass PR acceptance improved across the team and production hotfixes on AI adapters dropped noticeably after review standards landed.
- Owned DevOps practices: Docker, GitHub Actions, Jenkins-compatible pipelines, and version control workflows — cut deployment time ~50% vs. pre-automation baseline and stabilized releases across 3 client environments.
- Implemented verifier/oracle-style pass-fail checks in container sandboxes (Harbor/Terminal-Bench aligned); wrote technical documentation so failures cleared in one review cycle.
- Led cross-functional collaboration with product and client stakeholders; translated AI evaluation scores and risk findings into plain-language briefs for non-technical partners, unblocking go/no-go decisions without extra engineering meetings.
- Used agile methodologies for sprint planning and backlog ownership; mentored engineers so mid-level contributors owned AI adapter modules independently by mid-engagement.

About the technology
What Cloud Computing Covers
Cloud Computing provides on-demand access to computing power, storage, databases, networking, and managed services through remote infrastructure. Companies use it to run applications without owning every physical server. The model includes infrastructure as a service, platform services, software services, and serverless computing.
Systems It Builds
Cloud environments support customer-facing web applications, data platforms, mobile backends, internal tools, and global software services. They also host backup systems, disaster recovery environments, analytics workloads, and machine learning pipelines. Capacity can be adjusted as demand changes.
Major Cloud Ecosystems
The main ecosystems are Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud. Strong specialists also work with Linux, containers, Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, Ansible, GitHub Actions, and cloud-native observability tools. Their work often connects public cloud services with private infrastructure or existing data centers.
- Design accounts, networks, identity models, and landing zones
- Automate infrastructure and deployment workflows
- Configure monitoring, logging, backups, and resilience
When Companies Need Specialists
Companies bring in freelance cloud professionals during migrations, platform launches, architecture changes, and reliability work. External expertise is useful when an internal team needs focused capacity or an independent review. It can also help control complex environments before cloud usage becomes difficult to govern.
- Move applications from on-premises systems to managed services
- Break monoliths into containers or event-driven components
- Improve security, recovery, performance, and cloud cost control
Skills Behind Reliable Delivery
A capable professional combines architecture with practical operations. They understand networking, identity and access management, encryption, secrets, infrastructure as code, CI/CD, containers, and observability. They document decisions, define ownership, and test recovery instead of treating deployment as the final deliverable.
What Strong Experts Deliver
Strong Cloud Computing experts connect technical choices to business requirements. They make trade-offs clear between managed services, portability, control, and operational effort. Their deliverables may include a target architecture, migration plan, Terraform modules, deployment pipelines, runbooks, security controls, and measurable acceptance criteria.
Frequently asked questions
Key details about Cloud Computing, drawn from the questions we get asked most.
Cloud Computing is used to run applications, store data, process events, host databases, and provide scalable infrastructure over a network. It also supports backups, analytics, machine learning, disaster recovery, and global software delivery.
Cloud Computing reduces the need to purchase and maintain all physical infrastructure directly. On-premises environments can offer tighter hardware control or meet specific operational constraints, while cloud services provide flexible capacity and access to managed capabilities.
A strong Cloud Computing specialist usually understands networking, Linux, identity and access management, security, containers, Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD, and observability. Experience with databases and application architecture is also valuable when the work includes migration or platform design.
The right Cloud Computing experience depends on the scope, risk, and existing team. A contained migration may need focused knowledge of one cloud ecosystem, while a regulated or highly available platform requires deeper architecture, security, automation, and incident-response experience.
Cloud Computing work is often well suited to remote collaboration because infrastructure, configuration, documentation, and monitoring are accessed digitally. Clear access controls, written decisions, shared incident procedures, and agreed communication windows are still essential.
The best Cloud Computing provider depends on existing skills, application needs, data location, identity systems, and preferred managed services. A qualified specialist should compare the relevant services and operational trade-offs rather than selecting a provider based only on familiarity.
Good Cloud Computing work is documented, repeatable, secure, observable, and tested under failure conditions. Ask to review the architecture rationale, infrastructure code, access model, backup tests, deployment process, and operational runbooks.
Before starting Cloud Computing work, clarify the target outcomes, current environment, cloud accounts, access boundaries, compliance needs, availability goals, and ownership after delivery. Also confirm whether the assignment covers architecture, migration, automation, ongoing operations, or only a technical assessment.
The average hourly rate of freelancers who have used Cloud Computing in their recent projects is 97 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 775 € based on an 8-hour working day.
Of the freelancers who have used Cloud Computing in their recent projects, 94% hold at least a Bachelor's degree, 68% hold at least a Master's degree, and 19% hold a doctorate.
On average, freelancers who have used Cloud Computing in their recent projects have 19 years of professional experience, with a single engagement typically lasting around 2.2 years.
