Ship Production AI Systems. Fast.

I help teams go from AI prototype to production system. Architecture, implementation, testing, and deployment. No fluff, no 6-month timelines.

From Prototype to Production - AI system transformation diagram

I am not a generalist.

I specialize in production AI systems. If your problem doesn't involve LLMs, RAG, agents, or ML infrastructure, I'm not your person. Here's the filter:

I don't do

  • Generic software development
  • Data dashboards or BI
  • ML research or paper writing
  • Staff augmentation for non-AI work

I do well

  • RAG systems that actually work in production
  • AI agent architectures with guardrails
  • LLM evaluation and monitoring pipelines
  • Local-first AI deployments (llama.cpp, vLLM)
  • Vector DB selection and optimization

How We Work Together

Three engagement models. Pick the one that matches where you are.

Architecture Audit

From $2,500

PDF audit report of your current AI system architecture plus a 1-hour strategy call to prioritize fixes.

  • System architecture review
  • Bottleneck identification
  • Prioritized action plan
  • 1-hour strategy call
MVP Sprint

From $15,000

A working, deployed production AI system in 4 weeks. From architecture to monitoring.

  • Production-ready system
  • CI/CD pipeline
  • Monitoring & observability
  • Handoff documentation
