Cloud & AI Platform Engineer
Bridging ML research and production infrastructure — building cloud-native systems that serve real workloads.
Selected work
A few projects that shaped how I think about infrastructure, education, and community.
Open dataset of Algeria administrative divisions — 69 wilayas, 591 daïras and 1541 communes, reflecting the 2025/2026 reform. Trilingual names plus postal codes, shipped as plain JSON with no runtime dependencies.
Master's thesis project: fine-tuning Transformers and LLMs to detect fake news in Algerian Darija. Published at IEEE RIF 2025.
Multi-client team productivity service: FastAPI backend with role-based access control, SvelteKit web UI, and a Python CLI — all sharing one Postgres + Redis stack. Built layer by layer following Clean Architecture, 12-Factor, and OWASP Top 10 — every commit traceable to an Issue and PR.
Always leveling up
What I'm actively deepening right now.
Building AWS fluency for cloud engineering roles. Targeting AWS Cloud Practitioner certification as a first milestone, then Solutions Architect Associate.
Moving from foundational Kubernetes knowledge to production-grade skills — GitOps, operators, and scaling patterns.
Deepening Infrastructure-as-Code skills — modules, remote state, and multi-environment patterns.
In print
Books, essays, and long-form pieces on systems and the people who build them.
AI-driven fake news detection using fine-tuned Transformers and Large Language Models on Algerian dialect data. Addresses low-resource NLP challenges.
Recent Master's graduate seeking a first role in Cloud, DevOps, or AI Platform Engineering. Available from September 15, 2026 (completing mandatory military service). Open to remote-first or hybrid positions globally.
