09.2024 - Current
- I am working as a Material Application Part-Time Engineer at TEI on Turboshaft and Turbofan engines projects on rotating and static parts. I took part in projects focused on high-performance materials used in aerospace engines, such as superalloys, titanium alloys and coatings. I gained both theoretical and hands-on experience in heat treatment, surface modification and coating processes. I participated in laboratory work involving material characterization, microstructural analysis (optical microscope, SEM) and mechanical testing (hardness, tensile and creep test).
Structural Manufacturing Intern
Baykar Technologies

07.2024 - 09.2024
- During my internship, I gained practical experienced in the manufacturing processes of composite materials. I contributed to the quality control of composite parts using non-destructive testing (NDT) methods. I also acquired technical knowledge regarding the application and integration of radar-absorbing materials in structural systems. Additionally, I had the opportunity to observe structural testing of processes and became familier with aerospace-grade technical documentation and quality management systems.
Structural Department Member
Yildiz Rocket Team - Yildiz Technical University
İstanbul
09.2021 - 10.2022
- During in my time as a active member of the Yildiz Rocket Team, I took part in high-altitude rocket projects at the university level. After I joined the team, I was responsible for the manufacturing processes of composite components. I contributed directly to engineering processes related to the production phases of rocket parts. Additionally, I gained hands-on experience by participating in various test phases, including static fire test and avionics testing. Throughout the project, I developed valuable skills in interdisciplinary communication, time management and technical reporting within a team enviroment.
Production Intern
Eregli Demir ve Çelik Fabrikalari T.A.Ş
Zonguldak
08.2022 - 09.2022
- I learned and experienced Hot Strip Mill process and the stages of iron and steel production and forming (rolling process). Also I learned and applied the FMEA (Failure Mode Effects Analysis) table and the risk inventory chart about production. I learned process control plans and production flow charts. I created various production schemes. I reported to my Production Manager and Mentors weekly.
