EXPERIENCE
AI Engineer at ToumAI — Dec 2024 - Present
Key Responsibilities
- Building speech-to-text models for multilingual dialects, namely Moroccan and Tunisian Darija.
- Building on-premise data-privacy pipelines for voice and PII anonymization.
- Building reproducible ML workflows from data ingestion to prediction generation.
- Automating & integrating AI components as micro-services and event-driven workflows, connecting with orchestration tools and business APIs to automate decision pipelines.
- Analyzing clients’ business requirements, drafting analytics KPIs, and translating them into technical data-science problems.
- Collaborating with business, product, and engineering teams to build end-to-end data-science pipelines.
Key Achievements
- Delivered 2 speech-to-text models for Moroccan and Tunisian Darija, used in both the audio data- privacy and analytics layers, as fine-tuned versions of different architectures (e.g. OpenAI Whisper, Qwen- ASR, NVIDIA NeMo).
- Delivered 2 Named Entity Recognition models for Darija and Tunisian PII detection, built on archi- tectures such as BERT-based models, GLiNER, etc.
- Delivered the analytics layer of the startup product HolisticX ([lien]), capable of analyzing both enterprise phone call centers and virtual voice agents to extract business insights, agent performance trends, and customer preferences using speech-to-text, audio diarization, and emotion detection; rolled out for many leading Moroccan telecom call centers.
- Delivered a Microsoft-certified SaaS solution (Microsoft Marketplace) that enables integrating Multilin- gual AI Assistants with the Microsoft Dynamics 365 platform.
Data Scientist at DeepEcho — Feb 2024 - Nov 2024
- Conducted research on adapting Vision-Language Models (e.g. CLIP, BLIP-2, LLaVa-Med) to fetal ultrasound data through parameter-efficient fine-tuning (e.g. LoRA), involving data curation, finetun- ing, and model evaluation using BLEU, ROUGE, BERT-SCORE and Clinical F1-score for ultrasound image-text understanding.
- Implemented an image classification pipeline to categorize fetal ultrasound images by type (e.g. 3D ultrasound, Doppler, standard 2D scans, etc.)
Internship at L’ODJ Média — July 2023 - Aug 2023
- Developed an All-in-One automated media content generation platform, integrating news scraping, LLMs for article generation, TTS models for voice synthesis, and diffusion models for image/video generation with human-in-the-loop oversight, enabling end-to-end content production and automated streaming to the company’s news channels.
Internship at SAFRAN Aerosystems — July 2022 - Oct 2022
- Implemented a full-stack web application with Laravel, featuring Front-End components, RESTful Back-End services, and a MySQL database to digitize and manage aircraft component documentation and reporting workflows.
