Samir Akram OUNIS

AI & Software Engineer · Algiers, Algeria

I build AI systems that have to work outside a notebook: a whole-slide-image pipeline for prostate cancer grading (my Master's thesis, graded 17.75/20), an agentic text-to-SQL assistant built during Djezzy's Data Science Immersion Program, and full-stack platforms running in production. Master's in Intelligent Computer Systems Engineering, University of Algiers 1 (2026).

Data Scientist Intern, Data Science Immersion Program (DSIP 4)

Djezzy × MajestEYE

Jun 2026 - Jul 2026 (6 weeks)

Led a five-person team building the Djezzy Commercial Copilot, a multi-agent business-intelligence assistant for the commercial department, during the 6-week internship.

›Led the five-person team (the lead role was agreed within the team) and owned the shared architecture: the Temporal/LangGraph runtime, the async delivery pipeline and the CI gates

›Designed the async execution pipeline: task submission, durable Temporal workflow, Kafka completion events, and WebSocket delivery, so heavy analytical queries never block behind a spinner

›Built guarded natural-language-to-SQL generation validated by sqlglot before it reaches a read-only analytical warehouse spanning 13 months of daily commercial data

›Implemented a date-normalization engine for statistically fair period comparisons around holidays and campaigns, plus a pgvector-backed shared memory layer to avoid recomputing solved analyses

Software Engineer

›Developed React and TypeScript CRM/ERP features for internal business workflows

›Integrated chatbot agent flows with saved conversation history and reusable interface states

›Supervised two interns on a computer-vision safety-detection project

Software Engineering Intern

White Bay Limited

Mar 2024 - Jun 2024

Built an LLM virtual-assistant prototype with text and voice interaction modes.

›Developed a RAG-based assistant using Llama 2 for context-grounded responses
