AI Engineer at Dxify for Digital Solutions, building on-premise RAG systems for the Central Bank of Egypt and other clients.
EgyptWhat I'm looking for
At Dxify for Digital Solutions, I built retrieval-augmented generation systems over PDF collections, Oracle databases, and Azure SQL Server. The most recent system was delivered for the Central Bank of Egypt and runs entirely on-premise to meet its data security requirements.
I also developed a YOLO-based vehicle damage detection system for insurance claims and repair estimates, and paired Azure Speech Service transcription with a locally hosted LLM to analyze customer service calls while keeping sensitive audio on the company network.
I grew the team from one person to three and set its technical direction and stack. I’m now pursuing a postgraduate diploma in Data Science at Cairo University to strengthen my modeling and statistical foundations, with the aim of building models rather than only applying them.
