Enes Elhovete
Full-Stack Developer & SaaS Founder
Professional Summary
I'm a full-stack software engineer and entrepreneur based in Istanbul, and a recent Software Engineering graduate of Istanbul Sabahattin Zaim University.
Over the past three years I've shipped production SaaS platforms end to end — from database and multi-tenant architecture through payments, security and deployment — across restaurant tech, education and e-commerce automation. Most of that work is trilingual (Arabic / English / Turkish, RTL-aware) and built for real, paying clients.
I'm the founder of RaqMenu and SendsBot, and I was the lead builder on several client platforms. I back that practical work with formal AI/NLP training: my graduation thesis applied BERT-based deep learning to emotion detection in Turkish text and received an AA grade.
