Forward-Deployed AI Engineer | MLOps · vLLM · RAG · Kubernetes

I help AI teams take their models from prototype to production. I am a Forward-Deployed AI Engineer with a DevOps and SRE background. I join your team and your cloud environment, and I take your AI from a working demo to a system that runs reliably, scales, and stays within budget. Most AI models look great in a notebook. In production they hit real problems: high latency, GPU memory crashes, rising inference costs, and no clear way to test when a change breaks something. I fix that gap. What I do Deploy AI into production. I set up self-hosted model serving with vLLM on Kubernetes, so your LLMs, RAG systems, and AI agents run fast and stay stable. I handle GPU scaling, so your costs grow only when your usage grows. Make AI reliable. I apply proven SRE practices to AI: uptime targets, latency monitoring, observability, and rollback for bad model or prompt updates. You get a system your team can trust and operate. Cut inference costs. AI inference bills are often much higher than they need to be. I use quantization, caching, and smarter GPU scheduling. In one case I cut a client's LLM inference cost by 82 percent while keeping quality the same. Ship RAG and AI agents that actually work. I build production-grade retrieval systems and agent workflows, with testing built into your CI/CD so changes are verified before they reach users. Build the cloud foundation. I bring deep AWS and GCP experience: Kubernetes, Terraform, Docker, CI/CD, and monitoring. Everything I deploy sits on a reliable foundation that is easy to maintain. Proof of work Top Rated on Upwork with 21 delivered jobs and 99.98 percent uptime. Recent results include a GPU inference cost cut of 82 percent, an EKS Kubernetes setup that reduced cloud spend by about 70 percent, a legal RAG system with 0.98 retrieval quality, and a payment platform handling over one million transactions per day. Who I help AI startups and product teams that have a working prototype and need it ready for real users, reliably, at a cost that does not burn the runway. I work from Pakistan with strong overlap with UK, European, and US business hours. Send me an invite or a message to talk about your project. I am happy to start with a short call.
