I'm an İstanbul based Digital Product Manager, currently working at Akbank and I am responsible for the wealth and insurance functionalities of the Akbank Mobile app (8M MAU).
I am interested in the financial markets and building products in a related field has always been exciting for me.
I am currently working as a product manager for Akbank digital banking team with responsibility of managing the investment, savings and bancassurance lines. Prior to that, I was working for the same company as a websites manager. I also worked for Turkcell part time while studying for 2 years as a websites manager. Throughout my career, I got to be the part of the team that developed an app which is being used by 8M monthly active users and I also had the opportunity to manage a website that had around 10M monthly clicks.
Throughout my education, I have developed a theoretical understanding of the consumer behavior and marketing. While studying, I also had the opportunity to use that theoretical knowledge in practice by working for a company in a related field. During the last 2 years of my education, I worked for the biggest telecommunication company in Turkey as a web sites manager.
I am responsible for creating the service design of the new projects that the company wants to publish on the mobile app (+7 million MAU). I brief the UX / UI teams and make sure the product and the needs for the service is well understood. Coordinating with developers and deciding on how to solve the problems when they arise is also a responsibility of mine. Recently, an investment app that I am responsible for is also published to the store.
