What I work with
Four areas that shape how I build modern software. From backend APIs and data handling to AI integration, automation and developer workflows.
Building backend systems with Python, FastAPI, Flask, REST APIs, SQLAlchemy and clean service-oriented application logic.
Backend & APIs
Building practical AI systems with RAG pipelines, structured LLM outputs, embeddings, retrieval evaluation, OpenAI APIs and vector search.
AI & LLM Systems
Working with SQL databases, JSON-based data flows, document parsing and retrieval systems for AI-powered backend applications.
Data & Retrieval
Using Git, GitHub, Pytest and debugging workflows to build, test and iterate on maintainable software projects.

About Me
I’m Ilyas Sülen, a Python & AI Backend Developer. My focus is building backend services, APIs and AI-powered applications that turn complex workflows, data and user needs into reliable software.
I enjoy building systems where backend logic, clean data flow and AI work together. From APIs and databases to AI workflows, structured outputs and practical automation.
Turning complex problems into clear data flows, services and well-defined responsibilities.
Building AI features on real context, retrieval and structured outputs. Not guesswork.
Writing code that is easy to understand, maintain and extend over time.
