Open to internships · English-speaking teams
Hi, I'm Abdessamad Benalia.
Software Engineering Student & Backend Developer
4th-year Computer Engineering student atUniversitat Politècnica de València. I build robust backend architectures, integrate AI into real products, and care about clean, scalable software.
About me
I'm a Computer Engineering student who fell for the backend: the part where architecture, data and correctness actually decide whether a product holds up under real use.
Lately I've been going deep on AI-powered products — designing entity-resolution pipelines, embedding-based matching and caching layers that keep costs sane. I like turning a messy, real-world problem into a system that's clean enough to explain on a whiteboard.
I'm looking for a software engineering internship in an English-speaking team where I can ship real backend work and keep leveling up.

Featured projects
DROP.AI — AI Personal Shopper
Upload a photo of an outfit and AI detects every garment, then offers per-item actions: find similar outfits, generate a look, check resale prices or buy it. Built a product-centric recognition engine — normalized keys, semantic name embeddings, perceptual hashing and a visual-embedding tier — so future photos resolve to the same product, not a loose image, cutting expensive API calls.
Votify Backend System
Secure, N-Tier backend for a digital voting platform. Complex state management, custom LLM integration for user feedback and role-based access control.
Cartography App
Desktop app for geographic data management and spatial visualization, built with strict OOP principles and an MVC architecture.
Bella Italia — Digital Branding
End-to-end technical consulting and digital branding for a local restaurant: full web presence and custom logo to establish a modern digital identity.
Education & path
BSc Computer Engineering
4th year. Focus on software architecture, data structures, databases and object-oriented design. Coursework projects in C#, Java and C/C++.
Self-directed AI & backend work
Building production-style backends with .NET, integrating LLMs, embeddings and vision APIs — including the DROP.AI recognition engine.
