I build AI systems & web platforms that ship to production.
20+ years of full-stack engineering, now shipping LLM pipelines, RAG & autonomous agents. From open-source models to live products — reliable, hands-on, production-first.
I turn open-source models into products that run.
Not just calling an API — designing the full pipeline: local LLMs, retrieval, agents with tools and memory, audio & speech, all packaged in Docker and shipped to production.
AI Agents
Autonomous agents with tool-calling, web-search grounding, persistent memory and a knowledge base — orchestrated with LangGraph or hand-rolled tool loops.
RAG & LLM Pipelines
Retrieval-augmented generation over private data: embeddings, vector search, grounded responses and structured JSON output — running fully on-prem when needed.
Speech & Multimodal
Production speech pipelines — transcription, forced alignment and phoneme analysis with Whisper-class models, plus image generation workflows on local GPUs.
A senior engineer who owns the whole product lifecycle.
From first conversation with the client to estimation, architecture, code, testing and ongoing support — I manage the entire development cycle with a high bar for quality and detail. These days that increasingly means AI engineering: shipping LLM pipelines and agents alongside classic web platforms.
Good communication, strong listening, and the ability to work across diverse teams and cultures. I take decisions with partial information and keep things moving.
Tools I reach for to get things done.

Platforms & Ops
Projects shipped, end to end.
Real Estate Portal
Firm's flagship product: a real-estate portal and complex booking system with full dashboards for super-admins, property owners, tour operators, agents, caretakers and affiliates. Multi-gateway payments.
Storage & Shelving Shop
UK e-commerce flagship within a larger network of Zencart minisites. Heavily customized cart, Google API & merchant feeds, SagePay integration — maintained and improved over a decade.
DOTW Booking Modules
Additional modules for an online travel-bookings platform, plus implementation of direct credit-card and 3D-Secure payment flows under agile delivery.
CaringBridge — Share Your Heart
Awareness platform where an uploaded photo is composited (via ffmpeg) into a video holding a heart with a message. Built a queue script to protect the server under concurrent load.
BabyScan Booking Module
A 4D-scan booking module with rules tied to estimated birth dates — the scan could only happen within a fixed window, enforced in logic.
"Hai La Restaurant" — Android
Native Android app connected to the larestaurant.com.ro restaurant portal — one of two in-house mobile products built for the firm.
