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
Forecasting with Prophet
Prophet is an open-source forecasting library created for business time series with strong seasonal patterns, holidays and changing trends. It uses an additive model that is easier to inspect than many black-box approaches. Companies apply it to sales, demand, traffic, staffing and revenue forecasts.
Model foundations
A Prophet forecast combines trend, seasonality, holiday effects and external regressors where the data supports them. Specialists configure growth assumptions, changepoints, uncertainty intervals and seasonal cycles rather than treating every series the same. The model works best when the history is meaningful and the business calendar is understood.
Ecosystem and tooling
- Python workflows with pandas and NumPy
- R projects using the Prophet package
- Forecast evaluation with backtesting and holdout periods
- Data pipelines connected to SQL warehouses, notebooks or APIs
- Dashboards and planning tools consuming forecast outputs
Prophet can run in notebooks, scheduled pipelines or production services. Strong specialists also understand package versions, reproducible environments, data validation and monitoring after deployment.
Typical business uses
- Retail demand and inventory planning
- Revenue, bookings and cash-flow projections
- Website visits, subscriptions and marketing response
- Workforce capacity and service-volume planning
- Operational forecasts with country-specific holidays
In Germany, teams often need forecasts that reflect regional calendars, promotions and supply constraints. Freelance expertise helps connect these business details to clean, maintainable time-series workflows.
When to bring in expertise
Companies bring in a Prophet specialist when forecasts are inconsistent, manual planning takes too long or an existing model cannot be trusted. External support is also useful when a team must compare Prophet with statistical or machine-learning alternatives, introduce backtesting, or move a notebook into a repeatable process. Remote work is usually practical when data access, documentation and review routines are clear.
What strong specialists deliver
A strong professional starts with the forecast decision, not the library. They check data frequency, missing values, outliers, leakage, calendar effects and changing business conditions before tuning the model. Their deliverable includes clear assumptions, reproducible code, evaluation results, useful visualizations and guidance for retraining and exception handling. They also explain when Prophet is unsuitable and recommend a simpler or more advanced approach when needed.
Frequently asked questions
What clients ask us most about Prophet — answered in short.
Prophet is used to forecast time-series data such as demand, revenue, traffic, subscriptions and staffing needs. It is particularly useful when trends, recurring seasonal patterns, holidays and business events influence the outcome.
Prophet offers an interpretable additive structure and practical handling of holidays, seasonality and trend changes. ARIMA can suit stable statistical patterns, while machine-learning models may perform better with many explanatory variables; the right choice depends on data quality, forecast horizon and the business decision.
A strong Prophet specialist should also work confidently with Python or R, pandas, SQL, data cleaning and time-series validation. Experience with APIs, scheduled pipelines, dashboards and cloud data environments helps turn a forecast into a dependable business process.
The required depth depends on the forecast risk and the state of the data. For a proof of concept, practical experience with data preparation and evaluation may be enough; production work calls for a professional who can manage monitoring, retraining, documentation and stakeholder review.
Yes, Prophet work is often suitable for remote collaboration when the specialist has secure access to data and the team agrees on delivery routines. German-language communication may be useful for local business stakeholders, while technical work can also be coordinated in English.
Ask how the Prophet professional defines the forecast target, separates training and validation data, and measures errors against a sensible baseline. Quality also depends on checking holiday effects, unusual events, missing data and whether the result improves an actual planning decision.
Prophet may be a weak choice when the series has little history, irregular observations, abrupt structural changes or complex interactions between many variables. A capable specialist should test alternatives instead of forcing every forecasting problem into the same model.
A complete Prophet project should provide prepared data, reproducible model logic, validation results, assumptions and visual diagnostics. It should also explain uncertainty, define how new data is incorporated, and document the conditions that require review or retraining.
