Hi, I'm Osama.
Senior Data Scientist · AI Engineer
I build agentic systems that turn data into decisions.
Over 8+ years I've gone from training CNNs on ID-card numerals to architecting multi-agent systems that serve 300 people in real time. I care about one thing: turning messy operational data into shipped systems that move real numbers.

// about
Data into value, end to end
I'm a Senior Data Scientist and AI Engineer currently at EPAM Systems, where I design and ship multi-agent systems for enterprise clients across the Middle East and Europe. I'm also a Claude Certified Architect (Foundations) early adopter, which reflects the same hands-on depth I bring to agentic architecture, tool design, MCP workflows, Claude Code configuration, prompt engineering, and context management. Before that I spent four years at TAWAL building the company's GenAI stack from scratch — from digitizing 5 TB of scanned documents to deploying a streaming multi-agent assistant used by 300 people daily. My work spans the full arc: from publishing research on gait recognition to deploying containerized ONNX microservices for field technicians in the field.
