About me

Hi, I'm Najib! I'm a software engineer passionate about science, video games and cognition. With over three years of experience in the Social Real Estate sector, I'm now steering my career toward video game development.

After earning a Baccalaureate in Experimental Sciences with High Honors in Morocco, I pursued a DUT and a Master's in Computer Science specializing in AI, in Lyon, France. Currently, I'm completing a one-year Master's program at Gamagora, specializing in video games.

My experience spans intranet development, deep reinforcement learning research, and R&D for industry-leading software. I've also worked on personal projects in video game development, AI, and visualization and I always aim to simplify working processes and structure my projects in a modular and maintainable way. My goal is to apply my software engineering & AI skills to video games and bring my projects to life.

I am seeking an internship starting May 2025 in gameplay or AI programming.

Feel free to contact me or explore my projects on GitHub!
