AI Consulting & Engineering
Strategic architecture and hands-on engineering. From fractional leadership to production sprints.
AI Consulting & Engineering
I help teams ship AI products that survive contact with real users.
Fractional AI Lead
Embed with your team 2 days per week to shape strategy, hire engineers, and architect production AI systems.
- Hiring & team building — define roles, screen candidates, and structure your AI engineering org
- Tech stack selection — choose models, vendors, and infrastructure with rationale you can defend to your board
- Architecture reviews — audit existing systems for reliability, cost, and latency before they hit production
- Eval pipeline setup — build the measurement layer so you know whether your AI is actually working
Zero-to-One Engineering
Transform an idea into a working, testable MVP in weeks — not quarters.
- Full-stack AI application — from prompt to production UI, deployed and accessible
- RAG / agentic workflows — retrieval, tool use, and multi-step reasoning designed for your domain
- Deployment & CI/CD — infrastructure that lets you ship updates without breaking what already works
- Evaluation harness from day one — you will never wonder "is it getting better or worse?"
Production Engineering Sprint
Review and optimize existing AI workloads for cost, latency, and quality. A focused 2-4 week engagement.
- Eval pipelines & quality measurement — define what "good" looks like and track it automatically
- LLM routing & vendor optimization — send the right queries to the right models at the right price
- Cost reduction & latency improvement — find the 80/20 wins that cut your bill without cutting quality
- Observability & monitoring — debug "why did it say that?" in seconds, not hours
Let's figure out the right engagement
Every engagement starts with a $500 strategy session — 60 minutes where we map your current state, define success, and scope the work. Fully credited toward your project if we proceed.
