Most AI products die in production when latency spikes, integrations break, or pipelines silently fail under real load not because the model is bad.
I build production‑ready AI systems and automations: real‑time voice apps, AI SaaS backends, RAG/agent workflows, and operational tooling that keep working after week two under real traffic, real data, and real users.
What I build
☑️ Real‑time AI/voice systems: STT → translation → TTS pipelines (Deepgram, OpenAI, ElevenLabs) with WebSockets, streaming, and latency control
☑️ AI SaaS backends: FastAPI/Django services with auth, Stripe billing, usage limits, and admin dashboards
☑️ RAG & agent systems: retrieval pipelines, tools/agents (Claude Code, LangChain, LangGraph), vector DBs, evaluation + monitoring
☑️ Automation & ops: Claude/ChatGPT‑driven workflows, scrapers, n8n/Zapier‑style orchestrations, backend glue between CRMs, APIs, and internal tools
Selected work shipped
➡️ AI ordering assistant (text + voice, English + Greek) with FastAPI backend and React frontend deployed via Docker, running live with real users and payments
➡️ Humanized AI text platform with Stripe subscriptions, usage metering, and ChatGPT‑style UI fully deployed on client infra, designed for ongoing content volume
➡️ Sports analytics platform with real‑time data feeds, AI‑driven betting insights, and full subscription/admin system for paying customers
How I work
➡️ Start from failure modes: latency, concurrency, integrations, and data quality, not just “it works on my machine” demos
➡️ Design clean, testable backends (FastAPI/Django), strong API contracts, and simple, maintainable frontends (React/Next.js)
➡️ Add logging, monitoring, and retries from day one so you can see and fix issues instead of guessing
➡️ Ship in small, verifiable milestones every week ends with something you can run, break, and validate
Core tech stack
☑️ AI: Claude / OpenAI / Gemini, Claude Code, LangChain, LangGraph, RAG, vector DBs (Pinecone, ChromaDB, FAISS)
☑️ Backend: Python, FastAPI, Django, REST APIs, WebSockets, async processing
☑️ Frontend: React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind
☑️ Infra: PostgreSQL, Supabase, AWS (EC2, Lambda, S3, RDS), Docker, GitHub Actions, Vercel/Render/Railway
If you need a system that can survive real users not just another AI prototype send your repo, current architecture, and target use case. I’ll tell you exactly what’s fragile and what I’d fix in the first 2–3 weeks.

I build backend systems and AI pipelines. My main work has been on production LLM systems, including a RAG pipeline that grounds AI responses in real data and eliminates hallucinations.
I built a conversational AI platform's backend from the ground up. Python and FastAPI, async architecture, vector database integration, and prompt caching to manage API costs and latency. I migrated the infrastructure to containerized services with auto-scaling, rewrote the storage layer to cut costs significantly, and scaled the system from a small user base to thousands of active users.
I have also designed RBAC modules for multi-tenant security dashboards, containerized legacy .NET services, and worked across both Azure and GCP environments.
Right now, I am building a distributed key-value store in Go with Raft consensus, deployed across a multi-region Kubernetes cluster on three continents.
