Faik İhsan Südüpak

Computer Engineering student at Boğaziçi University (2022–2027) and Co-Founder / CTO of MIA (Meeting Intelligence Agent). My work focuses on agentic LLM systems, scalable backend architectures, and production-grade AI services. I specialize in designing end-to-end AI products from idea to deployment, combining distributed systems design with cost-optimized LLM orchestration.
