AI Agent Developer specializing in LangChain, LangGraph, RAG systems, and n8n/Make automation. I've shipped 80+ production AI systems for startups and enterprises across the US, Europe, and Middle East. Most AI projects fail not because the model is wrong, but because the architecture doesn't hold up in production. I build AI agents and LLM applications that actually work at scale from multi-agent orchestration with CrewAI and AutoGen to RAG pipelines using LlamaIndex, ChromaDB, and Pinecone, to voice agents with Vapi and Twilio. โœฆ Services: โœฆ AI Agent Systems โ€” LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen; multi-step reasoning agents, tool-use pipelines, autonomous workflow agents โœฆ RAG & Knowledge Systems โ€” LlamaIndex, LangChain, Pinecone, Qdrant, ChromaDB, FAISS; document Q&A, enterprise knowledge bases, semantic search โœฆ Voice AI Agents โ€” Vapi, Twilio, Whisper, ElevenLabs; AI phone agents, voice assistants, real-time speech workflows โœฆ Workflow Automation โ€” n8n, Make, Zapier; end-to-end business process automation, CRM/ERP integrations โœฆ LLM Applications โ€” OpenAI GPT-4o, Claude, Gemini, Llama; custom chatbots, conversational AI, API integrations โœฆ Full-Stack AI โ€” FastAPI, Python, Node.js, React; production-grade AI backends and interfaces โœฆ Proven results: โœฆ Built a LangGraph multi-agent system that automated 90% of a client's content pipeline, saving 40+ hours/week โœฆ Deployed a RAG-based enterprise knowledge base (Pinecone + LlamaIndex) reducing support ticket resolution time by 65% โœฆ Delivered an n8n + OpenAI workflow automation that replaced 3 manual FTEs for a logistics startup If you're building an AI agent, RAG system, voice AI, or automation workflow, message me with your use case.

I am a Java Software Developer with 5 years of experience looking forward to apply all my knowledge in your projects. I use Spring Boot Framework, Hibernate, JPA ect, on the daily basis to create nice logic on data retrieved from Oracle/PostgreSQL/MongoDB. Also I have experience in Angular, working as front-end dev for small projects. I love to work with data and I use R as my favorite tool to do pre-processing tasks(clean data, merge data from different type of files and prepare for further elaboration). I would read data from anywhere (files, databases and websites), and I would create web API-s in R (plumber).
