I build backend and AI systems: LLM agents, RAG pipelines and the infrastructure they run on. I'm in the final year of an MSc in Computer Science at Sorbonne Université in Paris. Before that I was Lead Software Engineer at Mavera.
- Mavera (2024 to 2026), Lead Software Engineer. Built the web platform of an AI market-intelligence product used by 120+ companies, led the developers who joined later, co-built its desktop agent in Rust and Tauri, and ran the services on AWS and Kubernetes.
- Aveksana (2024), Full-Stack Developer. Built the document editor of a research-writing platform as it grew from 7K to 10K+ users.
- Gourmet Gulf (2023 to 2024), Full-Stack Developer. Built the operations platform used across 16 restaurants and 3 cloud kitchens in 3 countries.
- Sorbonne Université, MSc Computer Science, expected 2027. Ranked 1st of 17 in System Design & Modeling. Current coursework covers GPU programming with CUDA, cluster computing with MPI, and deep learning.
