Bio
Olufunbi Babalola
I have had the privilege to work with and under Cem on several product development projects. I have learned from him at every turn, he has a very brilliant mind and a roll-up-your-sleeve attitude towards work. His vast experience across various software frameworks and principles complements his exceptional software management capabilities and has proved himself to be a management-level engineer. He has the ability to function effectively in an intense and agile environment constantly exceeding expectations with his off-the-charts metrics and deliverables. Any team would be lucky to have Cem as a member. I strongly recommend him for any high-level, brain-tasking role as he has proven consistently that he is up to the task.

Above all, I consider Mr. Kavuvklu a person who will always strive for the success of both the individuals under his guidance, as well as of the team as a whole. I gladly and wholeheartedly recommend him for any leadership position that requires both a very skilled engineer and an effective and human leader, and I am confident that he will fulfill and surpass the most stringent of expectations.
