About Yakini

Ingénieur docteur (Bac+8) spécialisé en IA générative, je dispose d’une solide expérience en intelligence artificielle et en traitement du langage naturel (NLP / LLM), acquise à la fois en recherche et en contexte industriel et de conseil.

Comment je peux vous aider

J’interviens sur des projets techniques pour lesquels la scalabilité et l’impact métier sont des facteurs déterminants :
  • Développement Python (scripts, services)
  • Solutions IA & NLP (LLM, RAG, recherche sémantique, classification, résumé, generation de document)
  • Conception d’architectures backend / API
  • POC IA → mise en production

Ma valeur ajoutée

  • Expertise PhD : compréhension fine des modèles et des enjeux algorithmiques
  • Vision industrielle : solutions maintenables, testables et déployables
  • Approche pragmatique : focus sur l’impact réel, pas sur la complexité inutile
  • Communication claire : vulgarisation possible pour équipes non techniques

Types de projets & livrables

  • Pipelines NLP / IA documentés et testés
  • Architectures RAG et moteurs de recherche sémantique
  • POC fonctionnels + mise en production/recommandations d’industrialisation
  • APIs backend Python prêtes pour la production
  • Audits techniques et notes d’architecture
