Noah Budai

Master's Student (CHPS) & AI Apprentice

Passionate about Artificial Intelligence, Data and High-Performance Computing. Writing code, solving complex problems and finding the most optimized solution are challenges that drive me every day.

01

About Me

I am currently in the first year of the CHPS Master's (HPC-Image-AI track) at the Université de Reims Champagne-Ardenne, and I work as an applied AI developer apprentice at Vetoquinol, after completing my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science.

My Soft Skills

My various experiences have given me essential interpersonal skills that I apply every day in my projects:

🤝

Teamwork and Communication

Ability to collaborate effectively, share tasks and review code.

In action: Book'in TER project (Agile method, Git conflict management and task distribution).
🧩

Complex Problem Solving

Effective when facing bugs, able to break down a complex problem to find the optimal solution.

In action: RAG development (optimizing data "chunking").
🔄

Adaptability and Versatility

Easily fits into new working environments, whether intellectual or manual.

In action: My Deep Learning internship and my various student jobs.

My Passions

Outside of computing, I spend my time on two passions that bring me or strengthen valuable qualities:

♟️

Chess

A discipline that teaches me strategy, anticipation and complex problem solving.

🏋️

Sports

I practice or have practiced several sports, including combat sports (MMA, boxing) and weightlifting. They have helped me improve my discipline, perseverance and self-improvement.
