About
Mert Berkan Kalkan
Simulation systems architect and Co-Founder & CTO of Arkheon Technologies.
Focus
My work focuses on deterministic simulation architectures, scenario and mission systems, synthetic environments, operational analysis, and AI-assisted simulation workflows.
Reproducibility and traceability are baseline requirements, not features. The aim is to turn complex system behavior into outputs that can be reviewed, compared, and interpreted with context.
Background
12+ years of experience in modeling, simulation, mission systems, and software architecture.

Operating Principles
Reproducible runs before visual polish
Explicit assumptions before interpretation
Traceable outputs before persuasive presentation
