About Driss

General engineer by training (X-Mines), my approach is imbued with structure, rigor, and efficiency. Curious, I enjoy deeply understanding the technical details of the subjects I work on. In particular, I enjoy reading and implementing the latest research papers on artificial intelligence models.

For **over 10 years**, I have managed dozens of projects, both internally and with clients. My project management method is not limited to writing slides describing the broad outlines of the strategy to follow: I often provide technical solutions to achieve the set objectives.

For **over 5 years**, I have been exclusively dedicated to data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence projects. With a hybrid profile (technical/functional), I am looking for missions such as:
  • Definition of Data & AI strategy and roadmap
  • Coordination of technical profiles (data scientists, engineers, etc.) in AI projects
  • Implementation of innovative solutions, particularly in generative AI
  • French

    Native or bilingual

  • English

    Fluent

  • Spanish

    I support organizations in the design, implementation, and scaling of high-impact business Data & AI strategies.

    • Support for business and IT management on governance, organization, and tool selection.

    Data Science & Machine Learning
    • Design and deployment of machine learning models.
    • Development of data architectures.
    • Performance monitoring, evaluation, and continuous improvement of models.

    Generative AI & Agentic Systems
    • Development of intelligent multi-agent systems capable of reasoning, planning, and collaborating.
    • Integration of LLM-based solutions to automate processes, improve decision-making, and create new digital experiences.
    • Utilization of frameworks to design robust, production-deployable AI applications.
