AI Product Engineering & RAG Systems

Private AI for trusted data workflows.

I help businesses design and build practical GenAI systems: model selection, RAG over private data, local/cloud LLM setup, model routing, secure APIs, and product-ready AI features.

What this solves

Useful AI needs trusted context.

A simple chatbot is not enough when users need answers from product docs, policies, records, or internal knowledge. The system has to retrieve the right content, protect the data path, and return a response the product can use.

schema

Identify the workflow

Understand where AI can actually save time, reduce manual work, or improve the product experience before choosing a model.

database

Find the right data

Prepare documents, records, transcripts, and product data so the AI can search trusted source material before it answers.

settings_input_component

Choose and route the model

Select the right local or cloud model, then keep the app connected through one stable API while providers, prompts, and fallbacks evolve.

verified_user

Control access

Keep retrieval scoped by workspace, metadata, roles, and permission rules so sensitive context stays in the right place.

Where I help

Turn AI decisions into working product outcomes.

Clients understand AI value faster when the work is tied to model choices, private knowledge, business actions, and product delivery.

model_training

Model and provider selection

Compare local models, OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, open-source LLMs, and routing options based on privacy, speed, cost, and workflow needs.

folder_managed

Private company knowledge search

Build RAG over documents, PDFs, policies, records, project data, transcripts, and internal knowledge bases.

automation

AI workflow automation

Connect AI with business actions such as support replies, document lookup, reporting, CRM updates, task routing, or internal tools.

deployed_code_account

Product-ready AI features

Turn AI from a demo into a usable product feature with UI states, APIs, logs, fallbacks, permissions, and deployment paths.

How it works

A practical path from workflow to shipped AI.

The goal is not a flashy demo. The useful system starts with the business workflow, then connects trusted data and the right model into the product.

01 / Discover

Map the use case

Map the business workflow, users, data sources, privacy needs, and success criteria before selecting the AI approach.

02 / Ingest

Prepare the content

Normalize documents, markdown, product data, transcripts, and structured records before indexing.

03 / Index

Make it searchable

Create embeddings, metadata, namespaces, and vector indexes so the content becomes searchable and scoped.

04 / Retrieve

Choose the right context

Use hybrid search, filters, and reranking to select the right passages for the right tenant and workflow.

05 / Generate

Route the request

Route the request to the right local or cloud model and return grounded answers with source context.

06 / Integrate

Ship it into the workflow

Connect the AI response into the product UI, backend API, automation workflow, or internal dashboard.

Gateway Example

$ POST /v1/chat/completions

{

  "model": "local-rag-router",

  "tenant": "workspace-a",

  "retrieval": "policy-docs"

}

A gateway keeps application code stable while models, providers, vector stores, and routing rules evolve behind a controlled interface.

Security Shape

lock

Local-first option

Run private inference paths where sensitive data should stay inside owned infrastructure.

hub

Tenant-aware retrieval

Use namespaces, filters, and metadata rules so retrieval never crosses the wrong workspace.

fact_check

Traceable answers

Attach source references and retrieval metadata so product teams can inspect why an answer was produced.

AI stack

Tools I use to build, route, retrieve, and deploy.

The implementation stack stays practical: proven LLM providers, private retrieval, stable gateways, backend APIs, and deployment paths that match the workflow.

psychology

LLMs

OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, local models, llama.cpp, Ollama-compatible workflows.

travel_explore

Retrieval

Qdrant, vector search, metadata filters, hybrid search, reranking.

hub

Model gateway

LiteLLM, model routing, fallbacks, provider abstraction, API-compatible gateways.

api

Backend

Node.js, NestJS, REST APIs, auth, service layers, queue/workflow integrations.

deployed_code

Deployment

Docker, AWS, Linux/WSL2, private/local-first inference paths.

AI Delivery

Build the right AI system for your workflow.

I can help you identify the right AI use case, choose the right model, build RAG over your private data, connect it through a stable API, and ship it inside your actual product or business workflow.
