Hire a freelance AI engineer.

Available for senior individual contributor roles, cloud architecture consulting, AI/LLM integration work, and 0→1 MVP builds. Remote-first across EMEA and US-East timezones. Inbox is fast.

What I work on.

• AI / LLM integration

  Adding production-grade LLM features to existing apps: Retrieval-Augmented Generation pipelines, agent workflows, structured outputs, tool use, prompt evals, and provider failover across Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT, and Google Gemini.

• AWS architecture & migration

  Designing or migrating workloads to AWS serverless — Lambda, EventBridge, DynamoDB, S3, CloudFormation, Terraform.

• Full-stack web build (0→1)

  End-to-end product delivery: Next.js or React frontend, FastAPI or Django backend, PostgreSQL, authentication, observability, and CI/CD. Multi-tenant SaaS a specialty.

• Production hardening & rescue

  Take a flaky prototype and ship it: zero-downtime deploys, observability, cost optimization, security review, and on-call playbooks.

• Senior IC & full-time remote roles

  Open to senior software engineer, staff engineer, and tech lead positions in AI, cloud, or product engineering teams. Remote, EMEA/US-East friendly.

FAQ.

What kind of engineering work do you take on?

Production AI/LLM features (RAG, agents, structured outputs across Claude / GPT / Gemini), AWS serverless architecture, and full-stack web builds with Next.js, React, FastAPI, and PostgreSQL. Strongest on multi-tenant SaaS, AI-augmented workflows, and cloud-native systems where reliability matters.

Are you available for full-time roles?

Yes — open to senior software engineer, staff engineer, or tech lead positions, remote-first, ideally with EMEA or US-East timezone overlap. Also open to fractional and contract engagements.

Can I hire you as a freelance AI engineer?

Yes — I take freelance and contract AI engineering work: LLM integration (Claude, GPT, Gemini), RAG pipelines, AI agents, and AWS serverless builds. Engage directly by email, through Contra, or as a fractional senior engineer.

What's a typical engagement length?

Contract work usually runs 4–16 weeks for a focused build (LLM feature integration, MVP, or AWS migration), or ongoing as a fractional senior engineer. Full-time roles are open-ended.

What timezones do you work across?

Based in Lahore, Pakistan (UTC+5 / Asia-Karachi). Standard overlap with EMEA all day and US-East mornings. Comfortable shifting hours for sync-heavy clients.

Which LLM and AI tools have you shipped to production?

Anthropic Claude (Sonnet and Opus), OpenAI GPT-4, Google Gemini, LangChain, embeddings and vector retrieval, AWS Textract for OCR, and custom evals. Recent work: Promptly (a Claude-powered Socratic product architect with a four-gate AI cost guard and 16 metered agent pipelines) and Quanta (natural-language SQL across Gemini, OpenAI, Claude, and Groq with SELECT-only enforcement).
