About me
The person behind the workA backend mindset. A full-stack perspective.
I’m a full-stack software engineer with a strong Python and Django backend focus, currently working at ITSS Paris. I deliver features from requirements and estimation through deployment and production support. My recent work includes a Django platform used by approximately 5,000 professionals each day, PostgreSQL performance tuning, Matrix and WebSocket integrations, and a React 16 to React 18 migration. I also built a computer-vision proof of concept with YOLO and OpenCV at Lear Corporation. I hold a State Engineering degree from ENSA Tetouan and work in Arabic, French, and English.
