After playing a role in 2–3 commercials, he got a role in the drama series Öyle Bir Geçer Zaman ki in 2010. This drama gained international success and İynemli received a reward as well. Before this he had also worked in the drama Back Street, but he took a hiatus after the first part as he had to complete his education of aircraft engineering. He performed in the top 100 in the university entrance exam ÖSS in Turkey, which is similar to the (SAT) exam in the US. He continued his studies in the Aeronautical Engineering department at the Istanbul Technical University.[1] In 2011, while he was 20 he received the Antalya Television Award for Best Supporting Actor.
In 2013 he appeared in the Azerbaijani-Turkish movie Mahmut and Meryem, based on a novel by Elçin Efendiyev.[2] He played a disabled boy in Tamam mıyız? and portrayed Şehzade Bayezid on Muhteşem Yüzyıl in the same year.

In 2019, İynemli portrayed a mentally ill father who was wrongly imprisoned for murder in 7. Koğuştaki Mucize, which broke viewing records in Turkey within a short period. After the movie was broadcast on Netflix, it was well received by audience in France and Latin America.[3] Brazilian football player Neymar also stated on his Instagram story that he cried like a baby after watching this film.
In addition to his acting career, İynemli has appeared in many advertising films and is the face of numerous brands.
