I've been drawn to technology since childhood, spending hours taking computers apart to understand how they worked. This curiosity led me to explore server management, Linux and Windows systems, and network administration, building a strong technical foundation that sparked my passion for creating solutions through technology.

Over time, I shifted toward software development, learning HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Python, Java, TypeScript, React, Next.js, and Node.js. This full-stack foundation allows me to build complete applications from conception to deployment, creating scalable solutions that solve meaningful problems and deliver lasting value to users across diverse industries and use cases.

Sirac Simsek

I’m currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science at the University of Essex, where I blend academic theory with hands-on, practical development. My studies give me a strong foundation in core computer science principles, while outside the classroom, I stay deeply engaged in building side projects that challenge and expand my skillset.

My development journey extends into cloud architecture, where I've gained deep experience with AWS services including EC2, S3, Lambda, RDS, and CloudFormation for building scalable, secure applications. I focus on creating technology that genuinely connects with users—tools that are intuitive, efficient, and solve real problems through thoughtful design and robust cloud infrastructure.

I see every project as a chance to build something original and valuable. I’m driven by curiosity and the urge to push boundaries through technology. By exploring bold ideas and using modern tools, I aim to create solutions that don’t just work — they make a difference.

What I ultimately strive for is to combine creativity and technical depth in a way that leads to meaningful, long-lasting products. My goal is to create startups and software that solve real problems, improve everyday experiences, and inspire others to think differently.

Founder | Software Architect

As Founder of Playmaker, I lead this innovative startup by developing cutting-edge solutions while directing a diverse team and architecting scalable systems. My technical responsibilities span full-stack development, cloud infrastructure management, AI/ML implementation, and data operations. Simultaneously, I manage business operations including strategic planning, financial acquisition, and business model development. I focus on harmonizing technological innovation with strategic objectives to drive meaningful impact and foster collaborative excellence.

Personal Touch

Outside of work, I stay connected to the evolving tech landscape through continuous learning and experimentation. I actively explore new programming languages, frameworks, and development tools—not just to stay current, but because I genuinely enjoy the challenge of growth and discovering better ways to solve problems.

Beyond technology, I’m passionate about living an active and well-rounded life. I dedicate time to the gym, powerlifting, and calisthenics, which help me stay disciplined, focused, and mentally sharp. Whether I’m pushing for a new personal best or mastering bodyweight control, I bring the same mindset to physical training as I do to software—consistent effort, smart strategy, and long-term vision.

Outside the gym, I love playing chess, reading thought-provoking books, cooking flavorful meals, experimenting new movies, and losing myself in music. Traveling and exploring new places gives me fresh perspectives and creative energy. These interests keep me grounded and constantly curious, fueling both my personal growth and the way I approach building things.

Vision and Goals

My vision is to build technology that solves real problems and drives meaningful progress. I see software as a tool that should simplify, empower, and evolve how we work and live.

I aim to combine my coding expertise with machine learning to build intelligent applications that anticipate user needs. My goal is creating software that feels seamless and intuitive—systems that don't just respond to problems, but actively make work and life more efficient.

As I move forward in my journey, I’m committed to delivering high-impact projects that follow best practices, raise the bar for quality, and create real value through innovation. My focus is always on building with intention—solutions that are not only technically sound, but also meaningful, user-focused, and built to last. Whether it’s through code, collaboration, or creative thinking, I strive to contribute work that speaks for itself and stands the test of time.
