Bahadır Tuncay
A versatile mechanical engineer and technical leader who has run manufacturing technologies (OT) and IT infrastructure side-by-side for 20+ years. Connecting the CNC machine to Azure architecture to optimize physical processes through cloud systems.
With over 20 years of experience in manufacturing technologies, I run IT systems, infrastructure, and process automation under a single cohesive discipline. I architect end-to-end setups spanning network security, virtualization, hybrid cloud solutions, and manufacturing shop-floor digitalization. My mission is to drive enterprise value by bridging the gap between physical engineering environments and information technologies.
