About Alp Yalay

Product engineer and technical producer based in Istanbul.

Background & Philosophy

I build software products and digital spaces with clients: responsive websites, on-device AI, and content systems that support the people using them.

I studied Translation and Interpreting at Izmir University of Economics and localized Battle Talent and Heroes of Hammerwatch 2 into Turkish. I now build products including RealDex and AutoTidy, while continuing localization as a personal interest.

Core Domains

Technical Production

End-to-end technical production and CMS architecture for Çağla Cabaoğlu Gallery, alongside headless commerce planning for CCG Shop, which is in development.

Client Collaboration

Turning a client’s needs into a clear product direction, a maintainable build, and a website their team can use.

On-Device AI & Computer Vision

RealDex brings wildlife photography and species identification together. Its 39 MB FieldNet model covers 5,077 species and is released on Android; the iOS model update is pending.

Agentic & Developer Infrastructure

Full Model Context Protocol (MCP) server endpoints, typed REST APIs with RFC 9457 problem models, and curated LLM context standards.
