AI Agent and RAG systems that reach production, not just demos. I have built LangGraph pipelines, multi-agent systems, and LLM apps deployed on real infrastructure for clients in insurance, recruitment, SaaS and e.t.c.
In 2 years across Readfly and Physar Agency, I have shipped:
• A hybrid RAG retrieval system using LangChain and OpenAI embeddings for a job-matching platform, cutting candidate search time by over 60%
• Predictive ML models for insurance premium pricing using XGBoost and SHAP for explainability, deployed via FastAPI with full MLflow tracking
• End-to-end data pipelines automating ingestion from Gmail and SharePoint into Supabase, used in production daily
What I build for you:
Agentic AI Systems: Multi-agent workflows built with LangGraph and LangChain, agents that plan, retrieve, decide, and act across your tools and APIs.
RAG Pipelines: Production retrieval systems using Pinecone, ChromaDB, and semantic search, so your LLM answers from your data, not hallucinations.
LLM Applications: Chat interfaces, document Q&A tools, SaaS AI features, built with FastAPI backends, clean APIs, and deployable from day one.
ML and Explainable AI: XGBoost, LightGBM, and SHAP-powered models for pricing, classification, and forecasting, with explainability reports for stakeholders who need to understand the output, not just the score.
MLOps and Deployment: MLflow experiment tracking, Docker containerisation, CI/CD pipelines, and A/B testing setup, so your model stays reliable after it ships.
What makes me different:
Most AI engineers hand over a notebook. I hand over a running system.
• I design for production from the first line, scalable architecture, clean APIs, monitored deployments
• I include drift detection and evaluation (RAGAS for RAG, A/B testing for models) so you know when your AI degrades
• I work with MLflow and CI/CD so updates ship without breaking what works
• I communicate in plain English, not model metrics your team cannot act on
Tech stack:
Agentic AI: LangGraph, LangChain, Multi-Agent Systems, Prompt Engineering
Vector and Retrieval: Pinecone, ChromaDB, Semantic Search, RAGAS Evaluation
ML and Explainability: XGBoost, LightGBM, SHAP, NLP
Deployment and MLOps: FastAPI, Docker, MLflow, CI/CD, Drift Detection, A/B Testing
Cloud and Data: Azure, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, SQL, Python
If you are building an AI product, adding intelligence to an existing platform, or need a system that actually ships, send me a message. I will respond within 2 hours and tell you exactly how I would approach your project.

⚡ I build production-ready, AI-powered web applications — from model training to fully deployed web products.
With 7+ years of hands-on experience across full-stack development and AI/ML engineering, I specialize in one thing most developers can't offer: the full picture. I don't just integrate an API and call it "AI" — I architect robust, scalable systems where the AI layer genuinely solves your business problem.
If you need a freelancer who can handle the entire stack — AI/ML backend, REST APIs, and polished frontend — you've found your person.
What I build for clients:
✅ ML model development, fine-tuning & deployment (PyTorch, TensorFlow and more)
✅ LLM API Integration. GPT, Claude, Gemini integration into existing SaaS, CRMs, ERP & Web apps
✅ RAG systems — "chat with your documents" (PDFs, databases, wikis)
✅ AI agents & autonomous workflow automation (LangChain, CrewAI, LangGraph
✅ Custom AI chatbots & LLM-powered apps (GPT, Claude, Gemini, Llama)
✅ Full stack web applications (React/Next.js + Python/FastAPI/Django)
✅ Data pipelines, annotation systems & MLOps infrastructure
✅ Cloud deployment AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, Digital and many more
⚙️ Tech Stack at a glance:
→ AI/ML: Python · PyTorch · TensorFlow · Scikit-learn · HuggingFace · OpenAI API · Anthropic API
→ LLM Frameworks: LangChain · LlamaIndex · LangGraph · CrewAI
→ Vector DBs: Pinecone · Weaviate · ChromaDB · FAISS
→ Backend: FastAPI · Django · Node.js · PostgreSQL · MongoDB
→ Frontend: React · Next.js · TypeScript · Tailwind CSS
→ Cloud/MLOps: AWS · GCP · Docker · GitHub Actions · SageMaker
💡 Why Clients Choose Me:
Most ML engineers can't build a polished, deployable product.
Most full-stack developers don't truly understand AI systems.
I bridge both worlds — and I've done it for 7+ years.
You get a developer who:
→ Understands your business problem first, code second
→ Delivers working systems, not just demos or prototypes
→ Communicates clearly throughout — no technical black boxes
→ Has seen enough projects to know what breaks in production
I work with startups, SMBs, and enterprise teams across the US, UK, EU, and Middle East. Whether it's a greenfield AI product or adding intelligence to your existing platform, I bring the same rigorous engineering approach.
I focus on outcomes that matter: systems that save you time, reduce costs, or generate revenue.

I build production AI systems that businesses run on every day: AI agents, RAG pipelines and LLM workflow automation for companies where a wrong answer costs real money.
WHY CLIENTS PICK ME
• Expert-Vetted, the badge Upwork awards its top 1% by interview, not by algorithm. 100% Job Success across 70+ projects and six years.
• Production, not prototypes. Not proof-of-concepts. Every system ships with schema validation, evals and a regression suite, so it still works six months after launch and you can prove it.
• Scale. I have processed 12 million documents through a single RAG pipeline and run agents live in front of real consumers.
• I integrate with what you already have. Your CRM, your database, your APIs, your cloud. AWS certified (ML Specialty), equally at home on GCP.
• You always know where the project is. A written update whenever something moves and a weekly Loom walkthrough. Clients tell me this is the part they remember.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THIS GOES WELL
A process that eats your team's week runs on its own, and you get the evidence it did not get worse. On an AI underwriting platform used by 15+ insurers across the US, policy review went from days to 3 to 5 minutes at 99.55% precision on the rules that move money. A UK mortgage broker cut manual payslip review by 80%, because the automation only escalates the documents two models disagree on. A UK government-data client got 12 million planning documents extracted, embedded and searchable in under 48 hours at 65% below the GPT-4 baseline cost.
Most of my engagements run long-term. The first project automates one workflow; the ones after that tend to automate the rest.
WHAT I DO
1. AI agents and workflow automation. Multi-agent systems that take a manual process end to end and make real decisions along the way. Built in LangGraph and Claude with MCP, schema-validated, observable at every step, with a human in the right place by design. I built the assistant inside a UK consumer money app: seven specialised agents, 43 deterministic tools, every financial figure computed by code rather than the model, so it cannot make up a number.
2. RAG and LLM engineering. Retrieval pipelines, knowledge assistants and chatbots over your own data, and cost and accuracy work on LLM systems already in production. 700+ UK planning policy documents summarised weekly, fully automated, at 75% lower LLM cost through context caching and batch APIs.
3. The machine learning and data foundations underneath. Document and data extraction, classification, Python, SQL, pandas and scikit-learn. A private-equity deal-screening agent I built completes the firm's own investment scorecard end to end, backtested against realised fund returns.
HOW I BUILD
The simplest thing that works, then iterate with evidence. Strong prompting before fine-tuning. An API call before custom infrastructure. A benchmark before an architecture decision.
Non-negotiable on every build:
• Structured outputs with schema enforcement. If it does not validate, it does not pass
• Dual-model verification on high-stakes data
• Full observability with LangSmith or Langfuse. Nothing is a black box
• A gold-standard eval set built early and regression-tested on every change
