Professional Experience

Software Engineering Student

Final-year student in Software Engineering at ENSIMAG, France's leading engineering school in Computer Science.

2023 – Present

Software Engineering Internship – Inria, PRIVATICS Team

Full-stack development and continuous improvement of the GTM-EyE browser extension (Chromium), designed to protect users’ privacy by detecting and blocking hidden web trackers. Worked on both front-end (React) and back-end (JavaScript) components, refactored code and APIs, added unit tests, enhanced the UI, and integrated the analysis engine with a web crawling tool. Improved GTM detection accuracy to 96%.

May - July 2025
