alex@systems:~$ compose backend ai cloud db ready

Backend engineer / Applied AI / Cloud systems

I design the systems behind AI products.

I build the APIs, data layers, retrieval pipelines and cloud infrastructure that turn models into dependable software. From FastAPI and PostgreSQL to RAG, agents, Terraform and production operations.

  • Nearly 5 yearsshipping software across industry and public institutions
  • Production-mindedmodels, APIs, data and deployment treated as one system
  • Technical multiplierreusable tooling and AI workflows for development teams

Four layers. One production mindset.

My best work happens where a model, dataset or operational problem needs to become software that a real team can understand, operate and extend.

01

AI products and retrieval

RAG, embeddings, semantic search, agentic workflows, tool calling and MCP/FastMCP integrations.

Evidence: institutional assistants, Spanish retrieval research and tool-using agents.
02

Backend and data platforms

Python, FastAPI, PostgreSQL/PostGIS, SQLModel, authentication, file workflows and internal APIs.

Evidence: full-stack platforms, data collection systems and production inference services.
03

Delivery and infrastructure

Docker, Linux, Airflow, AWS, GCP, Terraform, CI/CD, MLflow, DVC and production operations.

Evidence: cloud deployments, ETL operations, MLOps pipelines and DGX infrastructure.
04

AI-enabled engineering teams

Shared agents, reusable skills, project instructions, review flows and structured code generation.

Evidence: standardized delivery workflows used by development teams and technical courses.

Built to survive a technical review.

Products, research and tooling chosen for technical depth and range, not to make the page look busy. Private work is described as a case study without exposing client code.

Bring me the messy version.

A half-defined AI product, a difficult dataset, an internal workflow held together by scripts, or a team trying to build consistently with coding agents. Those are good places to start a conversation.

Available for focused consulting, architecture reviews, technical collaboration and serious conversations about applied AI.
