Marouane Tijani

Marouane Tijani is a Senior Data & AI Engineer with 9+ years building production data systems and AI pipelines for some of the most demanding environments in France — from real-time TV-audience measurement at SFR and connected-vehicle telemetry at Renault to the critical social-data pipelines at URSSAF. He works across the full lifecycle, from real-time ingestion to the industrialization of AI models, on modern stacks like Spark, Kafka, Python, Qdrant, Redis and FastAPI.

His path runs through photography too: at DxO — a pioneer of computational photography — he built internal tooling for imaging R&D teams, an early taste of where pixels meet software. Today he brings those two worlds together as the engineer behind Pexafy, a semantic, AI-powered image search engine that finds photos by meaning rather than keywords — vector search over millions of free-to-use images, in 100+ languages, in under 100 ms.
