We not only worked on some of the most highly regarded web sites in Turkey, but collaborated also while organizing conferences, seminars, and local meetups about Javascript, Python or open source software in general. I've noticed his knowledge first while we were rewriting markafoni.com from scratch, which is an e-commerce web site having millions of customers and revenue in top 5 in Turkey. Fatih worked on the client side features for the web site, greatly enhancing its usability. While working at markafoni he also volunteered his time to organize the first ever Javascript conference in Turkey, JStanbul. I witnessed his hard work first hand during the conference, sometimes showing top notch speakers around Istanbul or speaking to host university employees about various issues. After that, joining a team of four which included both of us, we participated in a hackathon developing alaraksatarak.com in the course of two weeks. Fatih had done great job in all these cases. \r\n\r\nI've found that he is an expert in Javascript, very comfortable with linux/mac system tools and a very open minded individual. He is very hard working and also one of the most sincere persons I have ever met. I wish him well in what I'm sure to be successful years ahead."
