AI / ML & Backend Engineer
I'm an AI & Data Science engineer with 3+ years of hands-on experience across the full stack — from scalable Django APIs in production to deep-learning models for real-world problems. I care about clean, maintainable systems and about putting models where they actually create value.

Participated in the CSE Club Datathon at ESI Algiers, collaborating in a team to design and implement a data-driven solution under a limited time constraint. Applied machine learning, data preprocessing, feature engineering, and model evaluation techniques while following an end-to-end data science workflow.
Achieved 3rd Place in the TrainIT 2024 Datathon by developing machine learning solutions for real-world challenges. Collaborated in a team to perform data preprocessing, feature engineering, model development, and performance optimization under tight time constraints.
Author of “A Bidirectional GRU Network with Temporal Attention for Flood Prediction Using Time-Series Sensor Data,” accepted at the 5th IEEE International Conference on Embedded & Distributed Systems (EDiS 2026). Contributed to the development of a Bidirectional GRU architecture with temporal attention for flood-risk prediction from environmental time-series data
Competed in the IsDBI AI Agents Hackathon after being selected among the top 40 teams. Built AI-powered agent workflows with LangChain and Ubility AI, implementing multi-step reasoning, tool integration, and automated task execution to solve practical business challenges.
Served as a member of the organizing team for a Capture The Flag (CTF) competition at ESTIN. Contributed to event planning, challenge preparation, participant support, and ensuring the smooth execution of the cybersecurity competition.
I take on freelance work in Sétif, Alger and remotely: websites, web and mobile apps, Django backends and REST APIs, and machine-learning models. Tell me what you are building and I will reply within a day or two.
