How I help

  • Custom AI solutions

    For
    Product and engineering teams shipping AI features into real products.
    Problem
    Demos that never leave the notebook, or generic assistants that ignore your domain.
    Deliver
    A scoped AI slice: models, data path, evaluation, and a path your team can operate.
    Timeline
    Typical thin slice: 2 to 6 weeks after framing.

  • AI-driven customer experience

    For
    Teams that want assistants or support automation without ops chaos.
    Problem
    Support load grows faster than headcount; chatbots that frustrate customers.
    Deliver
    Assistants and workflows grounded in your content, with clear handoff to humans.
    Timeline
    Pilot in weeks; harden once the thin slice proves value.

  • Cloud integration

    For
    Teams modernizing systems that need room for AI and lower infra drag.
    Problem
    Legacy stacks that block releases, or cloud spend without clear ownership.
    Deliver
    Migration and integration on AWS, Azure, or GCP with operable defaults.
    Timeline
    Discovery in days; delivery phased by system boundary.

  • DevOps and automation

    For
    Teams that need boring, repeatable releases.
    Problem
    Manual deploys, fragile pipelines, and slow feedback loops.
    Deliver
    CI/CD, containers, and orchestration that shorten time-to-market.
    Timeline
    Pipeline foundations often land in 1 to 3 weeks.

Process

How engagements run

  1. 01

    Listen and frame

    Clarify the outcome, constraints, and success metrics before any architecture pitch.

  2. 02

    Build the thin slice

    Ship a credible vertical slice early. Proof over promises.

  3. 03

    Harden and hand over

    Production readiness, docs, and a path your team can own.

How we work together

Book a paid consultation on Calendly. We use that call to frame the outcome, then scope a thin slice before a larger build. TODO(owner): confirm pricing signal or engagement model wording.
