Backend & Data Engineer

Final-year Software Engineering student at ENSA Tangier, currently working as an apprentice at JADEV-CORP. My background is rooted in backend development and scalable architectures (.NET, Spring Boot). Lately, I have shifted focus toward Data Engineering and Machine Learning, working on Knowledge Graphs (Neo4j), RAG systems, and real-time data processing (Spark, Kafka). Passionate about Cloud infrastructure, clean code, and building systems with real-world impact. Multiple-time hackathon winner and active community leader.
