About me#

I’m Faris Hijazi, a Machine Learning Engineer based in Riyadh with 5+ years of experience building end‑to‑end AI systems across computer vision, audio generation, and large language models. I’ve led projects from research and data engineering to evaluation and deployment, and I’m comfortable collaborating with stakeholders to turn ideas into shipped products.

Highlights include leading LegalGPT(Arabic legal QA with LLMs + RAG), delivering a National ID OCR pipeline, developing an AI logo generator, and contributing to open‑source (LlamaIndex connectors and more). I hold a B.Sc. in Computer Engineering from KFUPM (Second Honors). Certifications: Azure AI Engineer Associate, TensorFlow Developer, GANs Specialization, FSDL 2022, and PyTorch Nanodegree.
