Hi! I'm Mehdi
Hayani Mechkouri
AI Engineer & Problem Solver
I engineer AI agents that democratize data — turning complex databases and documents into conversational interfaces that anyone in an enterprise can use. Currently building at Saint-Gobain, winning awards doing it.
"Solving the automotive data bottleneck with Generative AI for Valeo at the FAME Innovation Forum."
Empowering the
Lead & Grow Strategy
We build specialized AI agents to serve the company's 2030 roadmap — transforming how we leverage data, automate workflows, and enable a continuous customer obsession mindset across 80 countries.
Better Data Democratisation
Eliminating bottlenecks with NL-to-SQL architectures. Giving global business units direct, self-serve access to their production data without engineering dependency.
Tasks Automatisation
Designing and deploying secure multi-agent systems to streamline enterprise workflows. Full technical ownership from system architecture to production CI/CD.
Customer Obsession Mindset
Enabling continuous improvement by building intelligent pipelines that turn complex operational streams and client feedback into actionable voice-of-customer insights.
Professional Projects
Scalable AI systems designed to solve real-world enterprise bottlenecks.
Query Genie
Bridging the gap between human intent and complex databases. I engineered specialised semantic agents using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to search datasets, navigate data models, and execute natural language queries directly on Snowflake — no SQL required.
The Problem
Data was locked behind engineering queues. Every business question required a custom SQL request, consuming 80% of data team bandwidth.
The Result
98% NL-to-SQL accuracy on production Snowflake schemas. Eliminated the bottleneck for 20+ global business units. Won the Saint-Gobain GenAI @ Scale Award 2025.
The Scale
Deployed across Saint-Gobain globally, serving business stakeholders who now self-serve their data without any engineering dependency.
AI4Legal
Multi-AgentAutomated legal contract analysis and AI-powered redlining for enterprise compliance teams. A multi-agent pipeline reads, flags, and annotates NDAs and service agreements — reducing manual review from 5 hours to under 30 minutes with zero critical clause misses. Deployed on Azure with full Datadog observability.
VENTURI
Voice intelligence pipeline for call-centre analytics. Speaker diarisation separates agent from customer speech, enabling automated QA scoring, feedback categorisation, and trend detection at scale — turning raw audio into actionable insight.
Personal Projects
Hackathons, side experiments, and personal engineering challenges beyond the enterprise walls.
Datacard
"GenAI-enhanced cross-platform mobile app."
Overview
Graduation capstone project at Arts et Métiers ParisTech. A cross-platform React Native app that reads smartphone sensor data — accelerometer, gyroscope, and ambient metrics — and feeds them as creative constraints to a GPT-powered brainstorming engine, turning physical motion into ideation prompts.

Awarded by Saint-Gobain Digital & IT in 2025 for driving the most impactful Generative AI initiative across all global business units. Recognised for architecting QueryGenie, an enterprise NL-to-SQL system serving 20+ global BUs.
FAME Innovation Competition
Secured 3rd place for delivering scalable Generative AI solutions for Valeo — tackling real operational challenges in the automotive industry. Our project addressed production data scarcity, driver safety, and documentation access, all while prioritising energy-conscious AI design.
- Generated synthetic defect data using GANs to overcome limited production data.
- Built an AI-driven sound generator to enhance driver comfort and pedestrian awareness.
- Developed a RAG assistant to streamline access to technical manufacturing documentation.
African Robotic Brains
Awarded 3rd place for engineering an autonomous robot capable of solving complex mazes. I led the conception and implementation, integrating advanced sensor processing, pathfinding algorithms, and hardware control.
- Implemented a graph-based mapping algorithm for autonomous maze exploration.
- Processed convolutional path data using infrared sensors.
- Integrated PID control for precise motor actuation and an RFID module using C++ on an Arduino Mega.
UPF Coding Challenge
Secured 2nd place in a high-performance competitive programming challenge evaluating mathematical, graph, and dynamic programming skills. Competing in a dual team format, we demonstrated precision algorithmic problem-solving—finishing over 30 minutes ahead of the 3rd place team.
ACM MCPC 2020
Competed in the Moroccan Collegiate Programming Contest (MCPC) — Morocco's most prestigious ACM-ICPC national championship, gathering the top university teams from across the country. Utilising C++, our team solved 4 out of 10 demanding algorithmic problems under strict time and memory constraints, showcasing rigorous team coordination and technical mastery.
