AI Agent Engineer | Claude, LLM & Enterprise RAG | Fractional CTO

AI agent projects are easy to demo and hard to run. Mine are in production at a Big 4 accounting firm, a 5,000-employee US enterprise, and a family office. ๐—˜๐˜…๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜-๐—ฉ๐—ฒ๐˜๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฑ on Upwork, top ๐Ÿญ% of all freelancers platform-wide $๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฌ๐—ž+ earned across AI agent, RAG, and LLM engagements, ๐—ง๐—ผ๐—ฝ ๐—ฅ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ฃ๐—น๐˜‚๐˜€, ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฌ% JSS 1,200+ hours logged on Upwork, most of it hands-on AI engineer work on AI agent, RAG, and LLM fine-tuning systems Founder of Super Cat Technology, an AI engineer team across ๐—›๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ž๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ด and ๐—Ÿ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐—ป building AI agent systems Feedback from an AI agent advisory and architecture engagement: "Very highly recommend working with Cat. The quality of work, going the extra mile and idea or assistance given were truly outstanding. We will continue to work with Cat on many projects." (ML Advisor and CTO Roadmap client, 2025 Upwork engagement) I build AI agent systems that survive real traffic, and every AI agent ships with evaluations, regression tests, and observability. I am Cat, an AI engineer, founder, and Fractional CTO at Super Cat Technology. My focus is production AI agent work: enterprise RAG over messy internal documents, LLM fine-tuning on domain data, and Claude and open-model deployments running 24/7. As an AI engineer, my job is to close the gap between an AI agent prototype and a system your operations team trusts at 2am. ๐Ÿ’Ž ๐—ฆ๐—˜๐—Ÿ๐—˜๐—–๐—ง๐—˜๐—— ๐—ช๐—ข๐—ฅ๐—ž ๐—•๐—ถ๐—ด ๐Ÿฐ ๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ป๐˜๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—ฟ๐—บ.

Discovery: your use case, current stack, data reality, and what the AI agent has to get right in production. Step 2. Architecture: AI agent flow, tool boundaries, fallback behaviour, and an evaluation plan, delivered within a week. Step 3. Build and ship: a production AI agent with evaluations, regression tests, and LLMOps tooling behind it. Step 4. Handover or stay: train your team, or stay on as the AI engineer and Fractional CTO while the AI agent matures in the wild. Send me a message or an invite with your AI agent, enterprise RAG, or LLM project. You get a hands-on AI engineer on the build, not a handoff. I reply within a few hours, 7 days a week, across US, UK, and EU time zones.
