His capabilities extend to steering companies through successful launches and adeptly managing transitions when the timing is opportune.

Software Development

Ali, initially establishing himself as a software engineer, commenced his career with advanced-level development for desktops, servers, and IoT embedded devices. Subsequently transitioning into a managerial role, his early technical experience provides him with a distinctive advantage when engaging with developers. This background equips Ali with a nuanced understanding of the intricacies of software development, enabling him to navigate both technical challenges and managerial responsibilities with a unique perspective.

Ali has successfully established overseas development teams from the ground up, actively participating in the recruitment and training of outsourced resources. His deep involvement in these processes reflects a keen understanding of the challenges associated with managing outsourced teams. Notably, Ali demonstrates a willingness to reside in remote locations for extended periods, ensuring the seamless integration of the team with the company culture until they can operate autonomously in his absence. This hands-on approach underscores Ali's commitment to building cohesive and self-sufficient international teams.

Project Management

Ali's distinct blend of management expertise and hands-on development experience forms a unique bridge, granting him a competitive edge in project management. This advantage stems from his ability to comprehend the requirements of upper management and clients, while also being fluent in the language of developers. This dual understanding facilitates highly efficient and greatly valued project management, as Ali effectively bridges the communication gap between different stakeholders, ensuring smooth collaboration and successful project outcomes.

The success of projects hinges on meticulous budgeting, progress monitoring, and transparent reporting to stakeholders. Ali's prowess lies in his exceptional skills and extensive experience in managing budgets. This proficiency empowers him to adeptly prioritize tasks in a timely manner and proactively address challenges before they escalate into significant issues.

Chief Scientist @ WITS Corporation

Ali Taciroglu has worked for WITS Corp, a company for which I am one of the founders, since July of 2008. During the time for then to now, he has proved himself to be exceptionally hard working and technically astute. He is always willing to interrupt what he is doing to help out with a crisis - which is particularly valuable for a small company such as ours. On a personal level, I have the highest regard for his character, in particular his willingness to provide support to others in times of difficulty. In short, he is someone I can commend almost entirely without reservation.

I worked one on one with Ali on a LBS test tool development for several months, while he worked at WITS. He is very thorough and detailed in his analysis and always comes back with possible solutions. He transformed to multiple roles of test engineer, developer and program manager with ease and it was good working with him

I’ve known Ali for 11+ years. We were first classmates at Suffolk University graduate program where we have accomplished several team projects together. I also continue the pleasure to work with him in the same company for 3+ years. He is an excellent team player who is not afraid to take the responsibility and to take the lead. His efficiency, organization, and time management skills were central to the projects being delivered in a timely manner without sacrificing quality. Ali's performance was stellar throughout the course of every project. I highly recommend Ali for excellence in his approach to his work and its execution. He is an excellent communicator and will always go the extra mile as a service provider. He has extraordinary skill in establishing relationship with the customer and genuine interest to maintain that relationship. He has a rare and valuable combination of talents. I would be pleased to respond to any questions or reference about Ali.

Product Development Engineer @ Verizon Wireless

Ali was responsible for releasing test software and following up with any issues end to end. The Rover software was used to identify issues in a complex multi-vendor system involving multiple components including servers, device clients and network infrastructure. It wasn’t always clear where the issues were. Ali was always responsive and took ownership of the problems even if it was clear the issues were not in the Rover software. He assisted the team on many occasions in the debugging process and if necessary engaged the appropriate team members on the WITs side. He always followed up. I can recommend Ali without reservation. Overall, he was a joy to work with.

My team was a client of Ali's company where Ali wore many hats. Ali was the key player orchestrating technical teams and quarterbacking development tasks. Ali’s team consistently delivered on-time, if not early, with higher than required quality. Besides his solid leadership, there were times Ali elegantly solved technical obstacles with his software engineering background.
