About
I'mAn entrepreneur and AI‑driven systems engineer
I work between Tunis and San Francisco. Over 17+ years at Yahoo!, the University of California Office of the President (UCOP), and in Stanford consulting, I have designed and shipped technology at scale: AI integration, RAG pipelines, N8N workflow automation, cloud architecture, and full-stack engineering, always with a strong focus on security, performance, and long-term scalability.
Today I am building Carthagent, a development cockpit where AI agents build and a person approves what ships.
Services
What I Build
AI agents and LLM applications
Multi-agent systems that plan, build and review real work, with a person approving what ships. Retrieval, long-term memory, and the right model for each role.

Machine learning
Models trained and deployed into production paths, from data to endpoint to automated response.
See it in: AI-Enhanced App Security
Security engineering
Security designed in from the start: ML-based threat detection, encrypted secrets and backups, least-privilege access, audit trails and release approval gates.
See it in: AI-Enhanced App Security, Carthagent
Automation engineering
Workflows that remove manual work: event-driven pipelines, scheduled jobs, notifications and self-updating deployments.

Projects
Selected Work
Carthagent
My company. Carth is a development cockpit where a crew of named AI agents plans, builds and reviews product work in isolated workspaces, and a person approves what ships.
AI-Enhanced App Security
An application security system powered by a SageMaker-trained text classification model. It tells malicious payloads from safe ones right at the login form, then responds automatically through AWS services, so protection keeps up with modern threats.
Discover Project 150
A digital odyssey celebrating 150 years of UC excellence. This application unveils the University of California's journey through interactive timelines and captivating stories, from its humble beginnings to a global academic titan, and celebrates the achievements, visionary leaders, and transformative events that define UC's heritage.
Scalable E-Commerce Cloud Infrastructure for High Availability
A suite of AWS services forms a multi-layered architecture that delivers content efficiently, absorbs traffic spikes, protects data integrity, and provides full monitoring and governance. It is built for scalability, security, and high availability across several AWS regions and availability zones.
