Technical Lead and AI Solutions Architect with 10+ years in software engineering — backend on C# / .NET since 2016, and 6+ years architecting cloud-native AI platforms on Microsoft Azure.

I've shipped production AI to enterprise customers, including Gulf-region government ministries, formally led a 5-person cross-functional team through a startup's growth phase, and I ship full-stack products solo. Current focus: production agentic AI, RAG at scale, LLMOps, and AI-assisted engineering done with real discipline.

• Auto-RAG and MerlinX at DXWand — enterprise retrieval in production for 7–10 customers, the agentic SaaS on top of it, and a 73% cut in cost per conversation across 840 agents, proven on a frozen suite before rollout.
