Prior to joining AIMS Senegal, Ndèye Mbeuguet Niang (Senegal) studied mathematics and computer science at the Gaston Berger University of Saint-Louis, Senegal. A Mastercard Foundation Scholar and member of the pioneer Co-operative Education cohort at AIMS (2015-2017), she conducted her co-op internship at the Centre of Networks and Information of the Ministry of Higher Education, where using web semantic technologies with Java and Hadoop, she prepared a sharing framework to accommodate the data, after converting and modelling it to facilitate its accessibility to users.
Her work was so compelling that during her defence in February 2017, ATOS, an AIMS industry partner, offered her a position as Data Scientist.
Now based in Dakar, Senegal, Mbeuguet works for Sonatel-Orange, another AIMS industry partner, where she holds the position of Data Scientist Manager for Orange Sierra Leone.
