Work with me

I'm a freelance AI engineer. I build the AI in your product end to end, and you work with me directly, from the first call to handover.

What I build

  • AI assistants & chat-with-your-data


    Let your users or your team ask questions in plain language over your documents and databases, and get answers they can check.

  • Full product build


    AI is only useful inside a real product. I build the app, API, database, auth and deployment around it, so you get one working product.

  • AI agents


    AI that doesn't stop at answering: it reads, decides and uses your tools and APIs, with guardrails around every step.

  • Document AI


    Extract, classify, anonymize and translate claims, contracts and forms automatically, including scanned documents.

  • Custom & fine-tuned models


    When off-the-shelf models aren't accurate enough for your domain, I train and evaluate one that is.

  • AI consulting & advisory


    Already have something in progress? I review architecture, set up evaluation, and give your team a clear plan.

Ways to work together

  • MVP build ยท start here


    From an idea to a launched product with real users. Typically 6 to 10 weeks.

  • AI feature build


    One clearly defined AI feature, from idea to production, with the scope agreed before any code is written. Typically 4 to 8 weeks.

  • Prototype rescue


    Your prototype stalled. I measure where it fails, fix what matters most and leave you with a clear plan for the rest. Typically 1 to 2 weeks.

  • Embedded AI lead


    I join your team part-time to build and lead your AI work: architecture, evaluation, standards, delivery. Ongoing, 2 to 3 days a week.

How I work

Scoping
What it should do, what data it needs, and how you'll know it works, agreed before anything is built.
Architecture
Designed for accuracy, cost and speed at real scale, not just for ten testers.
Build
The AI and everything around it, inside your product, with something working to try every week.
Evaluate
Tested on real questions and real data, so you know how often it's right before anyone relies on it.
Handover
Deployed, documented and yours to keep, with the evaluation in place for every future change.

What you can count on

  • Scope agreed in writing before I write a line of code
  • Something working to try every week, not a status report
  • You own 100% of the code
  • Documented so your developers can maintain it
  • NDA signed on request

FAQ

Where are you based? Do you work with clients abroad?
I'm based between Dubai, Paris and Beirut, and I work remotely with clients anywhere in the world. I schedule calls in your time zone and keep the work moving asynchronously in between.
Do you sign NDAs?
Yes, before you share anything sensitive.
Who owns the code?
You do, 100%, from day one.
Can you work with our developers?
Yes. Most of my work happens inside existing teams, and I document everything so your developers can take it over.
What do you need from us to start?
A 30-minute call, a description of what you want the AI to do, and some example data if you have it.
I'm not technical. Can you handle everything?
Yes. I build the AI, the app around it, the backend and the deployment, and I explain every decision in plain terms.
Can you start from just an idea?
Yes. Scoping is the first step: what it does, what data it needs, and how you'll know it works.
What happens after launch?
You get the code, documentation and evaluation setup. I hand over to your team or stay on part-time.
What is ProductArc?
ProductArc is my AI product company. It builds and runs its own products, like Parlo and SYD. Client work happens with me directly, here.
