Nuri Taş
I'm a data analyst and full-stack builder based in Ankara, Türkiye. I work at the intersection of data, AI, engineering, and finance.
Currently a Data Scientist at Udemy, working on payments analytics and checkout optimization. Previously at the Turkish Presidency Human Resources Office, where I worked on people analytics at national scale using real workforce data from government agencies.
On the side, I build products — from financial terminals to AI-powered exam platforms to multi-asset trading apps.
I ship things with:
"The best way to learn is to build something people can actually use."
— me, probably
