Location: Agadir, Morocco (UTC+1)

Remote: Yes, worldwide. Nearly all of my career has been remote, with comfortable overlap across European hours and part of US Eastern time.

Willing to relocate: No internationally; open within Morocco for the right role.

Technologies: WooCommerce, WordPress, PHP, React, TypeScript, Node.js, Playwright, GitHub Actions

Resume/CV: https://www.saadtarhi.com/resume-saad-tarhi.pdf

Email: hello@saadtarhi.com

Senior software engineer with nearly a decade of experience, previously at Automattic on the WooCommerce Core team. I worked on Cart and Checkout Blocks, payment-state architecture, payment-gateway compatibility, and the migration of the E2E suite from Puppeteer to Playwright.

I am strongest in mature or inherited products where a wrong change can break checkout, third-party integrations, application state, or release confidence. My recent independent work includes WordPress/React plugins and hardening sandbox and proxy behavior for an AI app builder.

Open to full-time, contract, part-time, or short paid stabilization work. Available immediately.

Data scientist with 4+ years of experience delivering production machine learning solutions to top pharmaceutical laboratories. I have the aptitude for iterating fast in a startup environment, I was able to deliver a working product years before our closest competitor and those models have prevented millions of dollars in losses in the past 3 years with more to come.

Looking for data scientist and machine learning roles

About: I am a Generative AI Engineer who also happens to be pretty hands-on across the full stack development. Most of my recent work has been building RAG pipelines, AI agents, and natural language search — using LangChain, LangGraph, and vector databases like Pinecone and ChromaDB — with OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini APIs under the hood. I care deeply about shipping GenAI features that hold up beyond the demo stage.

Beyond GenAI, I am working on the full stack — React/TypeScript on the frontend, Node.js or ASP.NET Core APIs on the backend, and AWS/Azure for infra. I like owning things end-to-end and building software that's simple and reliable.

Technologies:

  • Generative AI: LLMs, LangChain, LangGraph, Agentic RAG, Prompt Engineering, Vector DB (Pinecone, ChromaDB, FAISS), Embeddings, Streamlit
  
  • AI/ML Stack: Python, NumPy, Pandas, scikit-learn, Jupyter Notebooks
  
  • Frontend: React, TypeScript, JavaScript (ES6+), Redux, React Query, D3.js, Chart.js, MUI, Tailwind CSS
  
  • Backend: Node.js, Express, C#, ASP.NET Core, Web API, GraphQL, LINQ, Entity Framework
  
  • Cloud & DevOps: AWS, Azure, Docker, Jenkins, GitHub Actions
  
  • Databases: PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, SQL Server, AWS RDS, T-SQL
  
  • Security & Auth: JWT, OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, SAML, Keycloak, ADFS

Location: South America (I'm a United States citizen)

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: Yes

The best data visualization of LLM model evaluation you will see today, https://adamsohn.com/reasoning-grid/.

Currently in South America and planning my move back to the US once a role is secured (whether in San Francisco or another city) to avoid relocating twice.

Due to high interest in my work with recursive self-improving coding agents, I've shared an example repo at https://github.com/adam-s/agent-tuning. I'm always open to discussing how I optimize agents for complex, repetitive workflows.

I bring 13 years of full-stack UI development experience alongside deep expertise in browser automation and agents, which I've been engineering since 2018. This blend makes me particularly strong in QA automation engineering and complex frontend architecture.

Notable projects include custom legal document management dashboards and a drag-and-drop CRM email builder for social marketing campaigns. As a consultant and full-time engineer, I’ve led 0-to-1 product development across streaming, real estate, edtech, marketing, and media. Having worked at companies ranging from a 130-person AI organization to a scrappy 7-person team, I thrive most in fast-paced, high-ownership environments.

Hi! I'm a product engineer looking for a long-term role where I can tackle challenging problems to help people. I excel at greenfield engineering - turning ambiguous requirements into reliable products. My last few roles have been in shipping compliant healthcare products, but I have long tinkered outside of that - some example are a multiplayer ecosystem simulator I built in TypeScript, and the map-based social media platform I’m currently working on.
