My name is Felix, but most people call me Kemal. Ten years designing enterprise software, two years researching how AI is changing the teams that build it.
My work has mostly lived inside enterprise products that people depend on and rarely think about: authentication platforms, developer tools, data-heavy interfaces. Alongside that I spent two years doing original research into how design teams are actually handling AI. Both of those things are pointing me toward climate tech, green AI, and ESG software.
