Aspiring machine learning engineer with strong software development skills.
Palestine, State ofWhat I'm looking for
I am a passionate machine learning engineer and software developer currently pursuing a B.S. degree in Computer Science with a focus on Artificial Intelligence at An-Najah National University. My journey in technology began with a strong interest in data analysis and machine learning, which I have further developed through hands-on internships and projects.
During my internship at OppoTrain, I contributed to the development and optimization of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) models, enhancing my skills in machine learning system design. I also gained valuable experience as a Data Analyst Trainee, where I learned to clean messy data, uncover patterns, and communicate insights effectively. My projects, such as developing a RAG model for human rights documentation and a taxi ordering platform using Flutter, showcase my ability to integrate advanced technologies and deliver impactful solutions.
