Welcome.

I’m Mustafa Harun Sendur, an Applied ML / Data Scientist with strong software engineering foundations. I build and deploy applied ML and analytics systems end-to-end, from data collection and feature engineering to modelling, deployment, and monitoring. I’m currently completing an MSc in Data Science at the University of St Andrews.

Applied Machine Learning Product & Behavioural Analytics Data Pipelines (Azure/GCP)

Recent work includes shipping mobile products with on-device behavioural analytics (SQLite) and improving performance through asynchronous pipelines and storage optimisation (25% faster cold-start; >99.5% crash-free on iOS/Android). I’ve also built Azure operational dashboards (KQL) monitoring patch compliance at 10,000+ VM scale, and deployed automated retraining workflows on Google Cloud Platform.
