Hi, I’m Armağan Amcalar — CTO, founder, and engineer based in Berlin.

I’ve spent the last 20 years building software, leading teams, and teaching engineers how to think, not just code. I currently lead applied AI work at OpenServ and run Coyotiv, where we train and mentor software engineers.

Alongside my professional work, I build and share publicly:

• Open-source projects like Gea, a compiler-driven JavaScript framework
• Research and experiments around structured reasoning systems for AI
• Deep dives into software engineering on my YouTube channel and talks at international conferences

My focus is simple: build systems that actually make sense — and push back against unnecessary complexity in our industry.

Sponsorship isn’t about survival — it’s about leverage.

It allows me to:

• spend more time building open, opinionated tools
• publish more high-quality technical content
• share real-world insights from production systems, not theory

If you’re sponsoring, you’re backing long-term thinking and independent engineering work at a level that’s usually hidden inside companies.
