What I Know
Areas where I have hands-on experience and enjoy exchanging ideas. If any of these resonate with what you are working on, I am always happy to connect.
AI Engineering
Building production AI systems - from vector search and RAG pipelines to multi-agent orchestration. I have shipped systems handling 300+ interactions daily and run autonomous agents across 7 countries.
- Production RAG & vector search
- Tool calling & function APIs
- Multi-agent orchestration
- Custom AI agent skills & MCP
- Voice pipelines (STT/TTS)
Responsible AI Adoption
Helping development teams adopt AI tools without breaking compliance. I built a governance framework for a German enterprise - .aiignore, data censoring, local LLMs, and policies that legal actually approved.
- GDPR-compliant AI workflows
- Data classification & censoring
- .aiignore & codebase protection
- Local LLM deployment
- AI usage policies & training
Engineering & Leadership
7+ years building web applications with PHP, Laravel, Symfony, and Vue.js. Led teams up to 25 people. Built a CI/CD orchestrator, managed P&L, and learned that the hardest bugs are always human.
- Laravel / Symfony / Vue.js
- Team leadership & hiring
- Developer tooling & DX
- CI/CD & testing automation
- Architecture & system design
"The best AI systems are not the ones that replace humans. They are the ones that make humans more capable. That is what responsible AI means to me."- Igor Gawrys
