AI & Automation Architect | 25+ Years Shipping Production Systems

πŸ† 25+ Years Shipping Production Software | Fortune 500 Engineering Pedigree πŸ† πŸ’° Built Systems Handling $Billions for Accenture, IBM, Visa & BNY Mellon πŸ’° πŸ€– AI Agents, RAG Pipelines & Workflow Automation That Holds Up Under Real Load πŸš€ Send me an invite or message, I'll give you a free Loom audit showing exactly how I'd tackle your project. That's my promise. I help companies turn manual chaos into predictable, production-grade output through AI agents, RAG pipelines, and workflow automation. Whether you're drowning in spreadsheets, scaling an agency, or trying to make AI actually do real work in your business, I build systems that drive results and ROI, not slick demos that fall over in week two. Automation that performs. I build production AI and workflow systems across Make, Zapier, n8n, Python, and JavaScript. Proper error handling, daily monitoring, and a focus on the metrics that actually matter to your bottom line. Architecture that scales. Most "AI automation experts" learned this stuff last year. I've been shipping enterprise software for 25+ years, applying the same engineering rigor to AI agents, RAG pipelines, and the glue code holding your stack together. Build it right, build it once. Full-stack AI integration. Scoping, architecture, build, deployment, each stage needs different thinking. I design systems end-to-end that move work through your business, not just one-off Zaps that break the moment something changes upstream. Data-driven delivery. I track throughput, accuracy, API costs, error rates, and ROI on every automation I ship. You get clear reporting showing what's working, what's not, and what we're doing about it. HAPPY CLIENTS: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Andrew built us an end-to-end Generative AI automation platform on AWS SageMaker, using RAG pipelines, vector databases, and open-source LLMs. It automated our RFQ, DDQ, and security questionnaire responses at scale. His work eliminated weeks of manual effort and gave us a production-grade AI system that's reliable, secure, and continues to deliver value. Superb work." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Andrew is a rare full stack developer and DevOps expert who is equally strong on the front end, back end, and infrastructure. He architected and built a complex web application for us that integrated cleanly with our existing systems and handled significant scale without issue. He delivers production-quality code, communicates clearly throughout the project, and makes smart trade-offs that save time and money down the road." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Andrew architected and deployed AI automation solutions that transformed how we operate, from predictive forecasting models to Generative AI pipelines that automated complex document workflows. He combines deep technical expertise with a sharp focus on business outcomes, which is exactly what you want in an AI consultant. Incredible work!" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Andrew brought exceptional AI/ML depth to us, leading the design and deployment of production-grade models and analytics pipelines across multiple enterprise engagements. His command of modern AI tooling, from cloud ML services like AWS SageMaker and Azure ML to MLOps frameworks and advanced NLP, was matched by an equally strong focus on observability, model validation, and ethical AI practices. He built reusable components and patterns that accelerated delivery across the team, and he collaborated seamlessly across engineering, cloud ops, and business stakeholders. Andrew is the kind of AI specialist you want when the project actually has to ship and perform."
