Back to original languageAbout Zakaria
80% of GenAI prototypes die in a notebook. My job is to make them survive in production.
You've validated your LLM-based concept. Now it needs to be scalable, fast, and reliable. As an AI & Backend Engineer (ex-US startup), I help tech teams and founders transform their POCs into robust software architectures.
🚀My Added Value: Industrialization
I don't just make simple API calls to OpenAI; I build engineering foundations. In my last assignment, I architected an "Internal Developer Platform" (Python package ecosystem).
👉Result:The deployment time for new AI projects went from 3 weeks to less than 10 minutes, halving the time-to-market.
🛠️My Usual Deliverables:
🎯Why Work With Me?
I approach AI with a Software Engineer's mindset (Clean Code, tests). Accustomed to 100% remote work, I am autonomous and product-oriented.
Let's talk about your project!
⚙️Tech Stack:
Generative AI: LangGraph, LangChain, OpenAI, open-source LLMs, RAG, Agents.
Backend: Python, FastAPI, microservices, Celery, Redis, PostgreSQL, pgvector.
Ops / Cloud: Docker, GitHub Actions (CI/CD), AWS (CodeArtifact, EC2), Stripe.
