Aris Culala
Building robust systems across Finance, Blockchain, and Real Estate AI. Turning complex problems into elegant, scalable solutions.
Crafting software that scales & matters
I'm Aris Culala, a full-stack software engineer with deep expertise across the entire development lifecycle — from system architecture and backend APIs to polished user interfaces and production infrastructure.
My work spans multiple high-impact domains: building financial platforms that process millions in transactions, architecting blockchain solutions with smart contracts and DeFi protocols, and developing AI-powered tools for real estate analysis and automation.
I thrive in environments where engineering excellence meets business impact — whether that's optimizing a database query that cuts latency by 10x, or shipping a feature that delights thousands of users overnight.
Beyond the code, I'm passionate about DevOps culture, cloud-native architectures, and contributing to the open-source ecosystem. I believe the best software is built by engineers who care deeply about both craft and outcome.

Things I've built
Karpul
A carpooling platform that connects drivers and passengers for shared rides. Features real-time matching, route optimization, in-app chat, and secure payments — making commuting cheaper and greener.
Pulse22
A crypto portfolio tracker that aggregates holdings across multiple wallets and exchanges, providing real-time P&L, performance analytics, and market insights in a clean dashboard.
Converse
A conversational chatbot that evolved from Elasticsearch-powered pattern matching to full NLP intent classification. Early versions matched user queries against indexed intent patterns in Elasticsearch; later versions introduced intent classifiers to tailor responses dynamically based on classified intent and extracted entities.
Notification Service
A multi-channel notification microservice supporting SMS, WhatsApp, Viber, and Email delivery through a unified API. Features template management, retry logic, and delivery tracking.
& a lot more applications
Spanning finance, automation, tooling, and more — built over the years.
