Results-driven Power Systems Engineer with ten years of experience spanning grid stability analysis, commercial software development, and energy market optimization. I bring a rare 360° perspective on the energy sector—combining technical depth with market insight to deliver solutions that accelerate the energy transition. I began my career at TÜBİTAK Energy Institute, leading stability and renewable integration studies for the Turkish TSO (TEİAŞ) to enhance grid reliability and support large-scale renewable deployment. Later, at Siemens ADVANTA, I worked behind the scenes on the PSS®E simulation platform, gaining a unique, developer-level understanding of one of the industry’s most trusted tools. Currently, as a Quantitative Analyst and Industrial PhD Researcher at KU Leuven, I design optimization-based models for Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), focusing on value stacking and energy arbitrage strategies that improve grid flexibility and market efficiency. Passionate about solving complex energy challenges, I aim to leverage my cross-functional expertise to help build the reliable, decarbonized power grid of the future. Core Competencies: • Power System Analysis (Stability, Grid Code Compliance, Power Quality) • Dynamic Modeling & Simulation (PSS®E, DIgSILENT PowerFactory) • BESS Optimization & Energy Market Modeling • State Estimation & Algorithm Development • Software Development (Python, Java, Julia)
- Analyzing electricity market data to support trading strategies and pricing. - Searching and implementing value stacking algorithms for BESS. - Modeling and implementing energy arbitrage models for BESS.
Developed, tested, and validated new modules for the PSS®E dynamic analysis toolkit, directly enhancing the core simulation capabilities of the software.
