I build AI systems that actually ship. Not proofs of concept. Not slides. Working, production-ready products - from architecture to deployment. My most recent example: I designed and delivered SmartBot entirely from scratch - a full conversational AI platform where anyone can build, customise, and deploy an LLM or Dialogflow-powered chatbot in minutes, with a live public URL, real-time chat, memory management, and conversation analytics. It's running on Azure right now. I built the backend, the REST APIs, the async Python session handling, the WebSocket layer, the security, and the docs. All of it. But shipping is only half the story. I also understand how to acquire customers for what I build. At Walmart, I automated recruiting workflows that saved 40+ hours/week and delivered €50K in annual ROI - proof that technical solutions matter only when they drive business outcomes. As co-founder of StudyClout, I learned GTM the hard way: user acquisition, campaign testing, iterating based on real feedback. So I don't just build AI systems. I build AI systems that acquire customers and generate revenue. That's how I work. Background: 🎓 M.Sc.
