About Nesim

I've been coding since 1994, when I was 9 years old. What started as a childhood obsession turned into 20+ years of professional software development across mobile, backend, frontend, realtime, and AI-enabled systems.

I build native iOS apps in Swift and SwiftUI, cross-platform mobile products in Flutter, and backend systems in Node.js, Elixir, C#, and Python. My work usually sits close to the product architecture: system design, delivery tradeoffs, security risks, team practices, and the decisions that determine whether software remains reliable after launch.

I've shipped apps to the App Store and Google Play, built real-time audio pipelines, IPTV systems, social networks, AI-powered products with multi-LLM architectures, and Kubernetes management platforms. My background includes Technical Architect, Security Champion, and team lead responsibilities across production software.

I spent 11 years living and working in Japan. That experience shaped a calm, direct, detail-oriented engineering style built around reliability, maintainability, clear communication, and practical product execution. I now help companies commercially through Kodart.

Japan-grade engineering, practical product execution

My engineering approach was shaped by years of building production software and by more than a decade of living and working in Japan. I care about reliability, clarity, maintainability, thoughtful architecture, and software that survives real users — not just demos.

Current focus

I currently help companies through Kodart, an Estonia-based software and AI engineering studio. Kodart works with companies worldwide, with a practical focus on Turkey and Europe. The work includes software architecture, secure software development, mobile and backend systems, AI integrations, realtime communication products, and technical advisory.

Professional Highlights

RotaTalk

Voice · AI · Mobile · Full-Stack

RotaTalk is a voice-first communication product for truck drivers, involving mobile apps, realtime audio, backend architecture, AI assistant concepts, and location-aware product design. It is built end-to-end in Flutter (iOS & Android) with Node.js & Elixir backends. Real-time voice channels use LiveKit with hands-free push-to-talk, a driver social feed for road intelligence, live map with opt-in location sharing, and private team channels for fleet coordination.

RotaBot, the built-in AI road assistant, handles truck-safe routing via TomTom, HERE, real-time traffic & roadworks, fuel price comparison, and border crossing intelligence — powered by a multi-LLM agentic backend (Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude) with automatic fallback, per-provider budget controls, Redis-backed cost tracking, and SSE streaming to mobile. Available in 11 UI languages, 187 conversational languages. Live on the App Store and Google Play.
