I’m an Electrical & Electronics Engineer based in Istanbul. I work across industrial automation and product development, so I can help whether you need reliable control logic. PCB for a device, or a technical analysis/report.
What I do best (and how I work):
- PLC/HMI automation: Ladder logic, interlocks, alarms, timers/counters, start/stop logic, safe reset flows, and clean operator HMI screens.
- PCB design (Altium): 2-layer and 4-layer+ boards, schematic design, component selection, layout with real manufacturing constraints, and clear fabrication outputs (Gerbers/BOM).
- IoT & prototyping: Turning an idea into a working prototype—sensors + MCU + power + enclosure planning. I also use CAD tools to design enclosures around the PCB when needed.
- MATLAB engineering support: circuit analysis, signal processing basics, simulations, and clear technical documentation.
!!!! I’m setting a low introductory rate for my first Upwork contracts while I build reviews—my focus is clean documentation, fast communication, and reliable delivery. Help me build reviews please !!!
I’m straightforward: I won’t pretend I know something I don’t. If your job needs research or learning, I’ll tell you upfront and give a clear plan. I care a lot about clean documentation, readable designs, and communication, so you can maintain the project after delivery.
If you share your requirements (process description / IO list for PLC, or block diagram + constraints for hardware), I’ll respond with a clear plan, timeline, and what I need from you to start.

Your business runs on data — leads, contacts, metrics — but it's scattered across sites, sheets, and tools. Someone on your team is still copying this data by hand, moving it around, or manually responding to customers. I build the intelligent automations and autonomous systems that make that manual workload disappear.
⭐ Top Rated · 100% Job Success · $15K+ Earned · 600+ hours delivered
Hi, I'm Caner 👋 My foundation is in mathematics and data science. It's how I first learned to code — and it grew into building production-grade data architectures, AI agents, and automation systems. That's how I work: precise, structured, and built so nothing breaks silently in the background.
🚀 A recent result:
I built a custom extraction system that collected and enriched 100,000+ contacts across 19 data fields (1.9 million data points in total). By hand, that's over 2 years of full-time work. I engineered the extraction logic for each source and solved the anti-bot challenges directly. To keep running costs low, I used AI agents only where deterministic code fell short.
Other Featured Engineering Solutions
Intelligent AI Chatbots & RAG: Not just simple bots reading memorized scripts, but autonomous systems that read and understand your company's own data. Using LLMs and Supabase's vector database infrastructure, I build context-aware systems that automate customer support.
Cost-Aware AI Enrichment Pipeline: A smart n8n routing pipeline where 59% of the data is processed with deterministic code (regex, APIs), and LLMs are only called for the complex fields that rules can't solve. This architecture cut operational LLM costs by 69%.
Lossless & Self-Healing Webhook Integration: A data receiver architecture operating with 0% data loss in a 1,000+ event test where standard endpoints lost 19.7%. A Dockerized, self-healing FastAPI/Python infrastructure offering a one-click replay feature.
End-to-End ELT: Live Weather Data Warehouse: A production-grade data pipeline that automatically pulls public data and transforms it into an optimized PostgreSQL schema. A robust architecture running 24/7 via systemd, Dockerized, and tested with CI/CD processes.
Hardware-Optimized Machine Learning (ML vs DL): A research project benchmarking 6 different models based on hardware costs for sustainable waste management. Instead of heavy models, I delivered MobileNetV2 as a solution integrable into edge hardware—achieving 79.7% accuracy in just 5.3 ms, making it 3.6x faster and 10x smaller.
How I Build Systems
AI and Chatbot Development: By connecting OpenAI / Claude / Gemini APIs to your own data, I build AI agents with measured retrieval quality that cite sources for every answer they give.
Advanced Data Pipelines: I clean, structure, and securely transfer data from APIs or web scrapers to your CRM or data warehouse using n8n and Python.
Resilient Backend Architecture: The systems I build are containerized with Docker and include strict quality controls that reduce data loss to zero.
⚙️ I build what actually fits, not the flashiest option.
Sometimes the solution isn't a complex AI model; it's a cheap and fast classic block of code. Sometimes, instead of using five different SaaS tools, it's building a clean data pipeline or a single "source of truth". I will tell you honestly what your project needs and keep your costs down in the process.
🏗️ Built to maintain, not to throw away.
Each data source is engineered as a reusable module, not a disposable one-off script. When target sites change their structure (which they do every few months), updating the whole system takes only a few days instead of a rebuild from scratch: what would be a 3-4 month rebuild becomes a 1-2 week update. That's what makes it viable for large companies running data operations at scale — no constant babysitting, and low long-term maintenance costs.
Why clients keep working with me:
✅ Fault-tolerant by design: no silent failures, no data loss, no schema drift.
✅ 0–4 hour response time with clear, honest communication.
✅ Delivered exactly what's promised, on time.
What clients said:
"I have worked with a lot of contractors on Upwork over the last several years. I can say unequivocally that Caner is the most skilled and detailed developer I have ever worked with... His technical knowledge borders on genius. If you need an Agent to help with your automation, you would be making a big mistake not hiring Caner."
If your data processes or lead operations are creating manual workloads or your systems are suffering from hidden data loss, send me a message and let's map out the architecture that fixes it permanently. 🚀

I build reliable AI and CRM automation systems for businesses that need leads captured, qualified, routed and followed up without manual work or fragile workflows.
Using n8n, APIs, CRMs and AI where it actually adds value, I take ownership from workflow design through implementation, testing, deployment, monitoring and handoff.
Typical systems I build:
• Lead capture → validation → deduplication → AI qualification → CRM → follow-up
• CRM integrations, routing, enrichment and synchronization
• API/webhook integrations and custom JavaScript/Python logic
• Production n8n debugging, Docker migrations and workflow hardening
• Monitoring, retries, error handling and failure alerts
Recent production work includes migrating a live self-hosted n8n installation from npm/PM2 to Docker while preserving production data and credentials, plus building CRM, lead-generation, reporting and API automation workflows.
If you already have a workflow that is unreliable, or a manual lead/CRM process you want automated, send me the current process and I’ll tell you the simplest architecture I would use.

Your leads stop reaching the CRM. Orders stall between Shopify and fulfillment. Onboarding emails never send. Somewhere in your automation, one thing quietly failed and nobody noticed.
I find it fast. And I fix it so it stays fixed.
I am a Business Automation Engineer with Advanced Certification in Make. I build and repair the workflows that connect the tools your business already runs on: CRMs, Shopify, Slack, Google Sheets, email platforms, and AI models.
But before I touch anything, I map how your business actually runs. Often the real problem is not a broken module. It is a workflow that was designed around the wrong process. I tell you which one you have, in plain language, before you spend money on a rebuild.
WHAT I DO
Fix and Debug: Your automation stopped working or produces wrong results. I diagnose the root cause within the first hour, or you pay nothing.
Automation Audit: You have workflows that run slow, burn operations, or were built halfway. I review the whole structure and deliver a clear report: what is broken, what is wasted, and what to rebuild first.
Build: New automations designed around your process, not forced into a template. AI-powered CRM and lead qualification, e-commerce order pipelines, SaaS onboarding and retention flows.
RECENT PROJECTS (details in my portfolio)
A real estate CRM that scores and routes incoming leads automatically, with AI qualification before any human touches them.
A SaaS retention pipeline that detects inactive users and triggers personalized win-back sequences.
A Shopify order processor that validates, routes, and confirms orders end to end without manual steps.
A lead capture system for a Canadian realtor: web form to CRM to automated welcome email, live and running in production.
HOW I WORK
I name problems early and concretely. I work independently and drive tasks to completion without hand-holding. You get plain answers about what is wrong and what it costs to fix, even when that is not the answer you hoped for.
If your automation is costing you time or leads right now, send me a message. Tell me what it should do and what it does instead. I will take it from there.

I am a backend-oriented automation engineer who builds reliable systems that replace manual processes and reduce operational risk.
My core strength is designing automation workflows with a developer mindset—using APIs, webhooks, and scripting to create systems that don’t silently fail or break under real-world data conditions.
While many automations stop at surface-level integrations, I focus on backend logic, data validation, and system resilience. Zapier is one of the tools I use—but the real value comes from how the system is architected behind it.
