Yahya Ceylani

Founder & Senior Software Architect

ITU Computer Engineering (2018)

With over 8 years of specialized backend engineering experience across leading financial institutions, I have designed and delivered mission-critical systems in core banking, treasury operations, instant payments (FAST/EFT), open banking (PSD2), and national fraud prevention (BKM SIPER).

Additionally, I have designed and deployed GPU-accelerated predictive machine learning architectures, achieving approximately 50x performance improvements over standard CPU execution for financial demand forecasting.

Our Philosophy

"In Finance, Success is Built on Reliability and Clean Architecture."

YHY Software was established to provide resilient, long-lasting software engineering for modern financial operations. Our purpose is to ensure that whether you are an established banking institution or an agile FinTech disruptor, your teams can rely on a solid, thoroughly tested, and regulatory-compliant architectural spine.

Engineering Standards

Test-Driven Development (TDD), clean design patterns, and rigorous continuous code audits.

Regulatory Alignment

Architectures conforming strictly to Central Bank, BKM, and European PSD2 directives.

High-Throughput Streaming

Decoupled Kafka and RabbitMQ pipelines preventing contention during high-volume spikes.

Applied AI Acceleration

Demonstrable 50x inference speedup for credit forecasting, liquidity analysis, and financial planning.

Core Principles

Foundational Tenets

Engineering Rigor & Strict Testing

In financial systems, every millisecond and every transaction matter. We embed Test-Driven Development (TDD) and 90%+ code coverage as non-negotiable fundamentals.

Compliance & Security by Design

Architectures fully aligned with regulatory frameworks (BRSA, Central Bank, PSD2), protected by mutual TLS (mTLS), tokenization, and comprehensive audit logs.

Decoupled Distributed Scalability

Microservices designed to handle unpredictable transaction surges without downtime, driven by Apache Kafka, RabbitMQ, and Kubernetes.

Value-Driven Applied AI

Treating AI not as hype, but as a practical business advantage: 50x accelerated GPU forecasting for cash flow, credit demand, and dynamic invoice discounting.
