About

Full-stack developer with network engineering depth.

I'm Muhammed Cengiz, a full-stack developer in the Greater Toronto Area. I graduated from Sheridan College in August 2026 with a diploma in Software Development and Network Engineering, where my capstone team's product was ranked first out of more than fifty projects at the year-end showcase.

Most of what I know came from shipping things people actually use. I built and still maintain a booking and payments platform for a transportation business with a 1.7M-follower audience, where real customers pay through Stripe every week. I designed and launched Bloom, a cloud-synced planner with Google sign-in and offline support. I also built a site for a local patisserie that needed a first real web presence.

The work I like most is owning a feature from the database up: designing the schema, writing the API, building the interface, and getting it deployed without drama. My networking and security coursework means I understand the layer underneath the app, which helps when something breaks in production at an inconvenient hour.

I'm a Canadian permanent resident, so there's no sponsorship or work-permit paperwork involved. I'm looking for a full-time software developer role on a team where code review is normal and I can keep getting better.
