06 / Work with me

AI that survives contact with production.

Most AI initiatives stall between the demo and the deployment. I work with founders and engineering leaders to close that gap — fixed scope, senior hands, measurable outcomes.

Three ways to engage.

Fixed scope · 2 weeks

AI Production Readiness Audit

From $2,500

A structured review of your AI feature or pipeline before it faces real users — architecture, evaluation, cost, security, and failure modes.

  • Architecture & data-flow review
  • Evaluation & observability gaps
  • Cost and latency modelling
  • Prioritised remediation roadmap

For teams with a working demo

Book an audit

Retainer · monthly

Fractional AI Engineering Lead

From $6,000 / month

Senior architecture ownership and team leadership without a full-time hire — direction, delivery, and hiring support in one engagement.

  • Architecture & roadmap ownership
  • Weekly delivery cadence
  • Code & design review
  • Hiring and team development

For scaling teams without an AI lead

How an engagement runs.

Step 01

Intro call

Thirty minutes, no pitch. We map your goal, your constraint, and whether I’m the right fit.

Step 02

Scoped proposal

A one-page plan with deliverables, timeline, and a fixed price. No open-ended billing.

Step 03

Build & review

Weekly demos against agreed outcomes. Everything observable, evaluable, and documented.

Step 04

Handover

Your team owns the system — with the docs, evals, and runbooks to keep it healthy.

Outcomes, not activity.

Questions, answered.

Do you work remotely, or only in the UAE?

Both. I’m based in Dubai and work with clients across the Gulf, Europe, and North America. Audits and sprints run fully remote; retainers can include on-site time in the UAE by arrangement.

What stack do you work in?

Python, FastAPI, and Django on the backend; React, Flutter, and React Native on the client side; PostgreSQL and MongoDB for data; AWS, Azure, and GCP for delivery. On the AI side: LLM applications, RAG, embeddings, agents, and evaluation tooling.

Can you work alongside our existing team?

That’s the default. Every engagement is designed so your team ends up more capable, not more dependent — pairing, review, and documentation are built into the scope.

Why fixed pricing?

Because open-ended hourly billing rewards slowness. A fixed scope keeps the incentive where it belongs: on the outcome. If scope changes mid-engagement, we re-agree it in writing before anything else happens.

Are you also open to full-time roles?

Yes — for the right senior international role, consulting and employment conversations can both start from the same intro call.

05 / Next step

Tell me what you're trying to ship.

One short call is enough to know whether this is a fit. If it isn't, I'll say so and point you somewhere better.
