Data scientist and ML engineer behind TactiVision Pro, a football analytics platform that improved ball detection from 4.7% to 85.7%.
What I'm looking for
I led a six-person team on TactiVision Pro, my graduation project at Misr International University. We delivered a football analytics pipeline that extracts tactical features from broadcast video.
I fine-tuned YOLOv8n and developed an RT-DETR second-pass ball recovery system, improving ball detection from 4.7% to 85.7%. I also integrated ByteTrack and built a Streamlit dashboard for xG, formations, pressing analysis, and player identity resolution.
At e& (Etisalat), I joined the e& Money backend team through its Senior Graduate Program: Fintech Backend. I mapped payment processing and transaction reconciliation across Java microservices, and contributed edge-case documentation while reviewing sprint tickets, PRs, and live incident response.
I co-founded UniPool, a university carpooling platform for Egyptian students, and manage its product roadmap, system architecture, and phased go-to-market plan. I also built a CNN-based facial expression classifier that achieved 97% test accuracy on the CK+ dataset.
