Fractional Architecture & Engineering
Senior AI & cloud expertise, without the permanent hire
For scale-ups who've outgrown their architecture and enterprises who need specialist depth without the headcount. Whether you're engaging me directly or through a consulting partner, the approach is the same: understand the problem, own the outcome, leave you stronger.
Core services
From AI agent platforms to the cloud infrastructure that runs them.
Design production agent platforms — multi-provider LLM orchestration, tool execution, conversation management, agentic workflows, and A2A (agent-to-agent) protocols.
Prompt evaluation frameworks, guardrails, safety policies, and quality assurance. Measure agent performance before you ship, not after.
End-to-end ML pipelines with Kubeflow, Vertex AI, SageMaker, and AzureML. Model training, serving, monitoring, and governance.
Production-grade infrastructure on Azure, AWS, and GCP. Kubernetes, GitOps, IaC, and CI/CD — the foundation everything else runs on.
Multi-tenant architecture, billing integration, onboarding flows, and operational dashboards for SaaS products.
Build and mentor high-performing engineering teams. Delivery acceleration, hiring, and culture across distributed teams.
Engagement models
Flexible, not rigid
No recruitment process. No six-month notice period. Bring in senior architectural expertise exactly when you need it, for exactly as long as you need it.Fractional Architect
Embed part-time or full-time with your team for weeks or months. Attend standups, review PRs, ship to production. Scale up or wind down as needed.
