About Me
Salam! I'm Elwalid Aboulaakoul, an Engineering student specializing in Information Systems and Big Data at ENSA Berrechid. I work at the intersection of MLOps, distributed systems, and AI research, with a focus on building production-grade systems and exploring sovereign AI architectures.
My interests span from agentic AI systems and RAG pipelines to performance optimization and decentralized inference. When not coding, I'm fascinated by vintage ships and historic trains, which inspire my sense of craftsmanship and engineering elegance.
