1 person has recommended Burak
“Burak is an incredibly intelligent upbeat engineer, who is a pleasure to work with whether it be solving
engineering problems or building prototypes. I’ve seen him build incredible machines with limited resources
in SparQ Labs and would say that he is a “maker”. He’s definitely a think outside of the box kind of guy, and
I’m sure whatever team he joins, he will come up with innovative solutions to problems you never would of
thought of.”
