What I'm looking for

I’m seeking opportunities in data science, machine learning, and AI engineering where I can drive innovation through data.

At Highbase, I built two WhatsApp AI agents: one helps buyers search products, compare prices, and order; the other helps suppliers list products through text, images, and voice. I also automated product-data extraction and catalog cleanup.

I engineered n8n workflows and database integration with Supabase and OpenAI GPT models, achieving a six-second average response time per message. For logistics, I developed a stateless route optimization engine and cut paid API calls per solve by 50% without reducing route quality.

My research and project work spans communication networks, forecasting, and AI. At NUST, I programmed Python simulations for research on cognitive marine communication networks; in a separate project, I developed a deep-learning forecasting model that reduced RMSE by 50% against ARIMA and Prophet.

I also designed a modular kit to convert a standard wheelchair into an autonomous smart mobility system, with voice control, navigation, obstacle detection, and health monitoring. The project received EGP 80,000 in national funding, and I’m seeking opportunities in data science, machine learning, and AI engineering.
