AI Engineer | Erasmus Scholar

Hi, I'm Hamza. I'm an AI Engineer at Deepinsight in Oslo, working on agentic AI systems in production. Before this I did an Erasmus Mundus master's across Norway, Spain, and France, with four research papers published. I love coding, deep learning, and building things.
