Hi, my name is Ismayil. I received my B.S. degree from Middle East Technical University (METU) in Ankara-Turkey where I studied Mechanical Engineering with concentration in Mechatronics and Manufacturing. I started my career in Oil & Gas industry with BP Exploration and Production company, where over a period of four years, while working in Offshore and Onshore engineering teams, I helped to install and commissioned various state-of-the-art turbomachinery and process equipment. I also provided engineering support to operations and maintenance teams and worked on modifications of offshore platforms, gas compression and oil pumping facilities located in Azerbaijan - Georgia - Turkey (AGT) region. In 2008 in hopes of expanding on my knowledge and gaining experience in design and manufacturing I moved to US to work for Rolls-Royce (R-R) Energy where I held various positions such as Fluids Systems Design Engineer, Systems Integration Engineer, Project Lead/Principal Engineer and R&D Portfolio Manager. Currently I am working as the Global Head of R&D programs in Power & Gas division of Siemens Energy company where I am overseeing Design to Cost (DtC) programs for small and medium industrial and aero-derivative gas turbine products. In addition to my responsibilities at R&D I am also working with Technology and Innovation group where I am leading development of idea valuation tool and methodologies for R&D and Technology investments for Siemens Power and Gas portfolio including Steam, Large, Medium, Small and Aero-derivative Gas Turbine products. I am starting the Master of Engineering Management program at UWM in 2018 Spring semester. I am hoping to further grow, to share my knowledge and experience and to learn a lot while collaborating and networking with other students at UWM. Outside of work, I like working on small robotics and mechatronics home projects. I am also a big fan of Jazz and Blues music and I try to play my guitar or piano whenever I get a chance. Currently I am living in Columbus-Ohio with my wife and our three children.
