01What I work on

Agents, RAG, voice and evals, built for production.

Watch one request go through a system I would build. Every layer is a place where AI products break, and where I spend my time.

02Track record

Self-taught, since 2010.

I learned by shipping: first for clients around the world, then for startups that had to scale. The last six years, AI that had to hold up in production.

See the whole track record

First

Started on a phone

I wrote my first code on an LG Cookie, in the quiet hours in my own store. A computer came soon after, and with it 350+ freelance projects through Envato Studio, Elto, Fiverr and CodeCanyon.

Then

Products that had to scale

Technical lead, core product
Built the core integrations architecture. It went on to become an Indian unicorn.
Software architect → acting CTO
Built the team, and the first product went live in 45 days.
Solutions architect
Refactored a five-year-old legacy system and made it multilingual.
UI/UX architect
Modernised the front end of its business tools.
Solutions architect, five years
A Silicon Valley B2B marketplace: real-time data, integrations, cloud-native.

03In their words

People I have built with.

Founders and engineers who have shipped with me, in their own words.

“Mandeep didn't just put in a patch, he helped redesign the system architecture to handle 5x the load without too much of extra server hardware.”

Jaspreet Singh OberoiHead of Engineering, Devnagri

“Mandeep is the level-headed, methodical thinker you want on your team. He is capable of looking at the big picture, anticipating problems and planning before hand.”

Rajat HansCo-founder and CTO, Kenko AI

“The guy thinks 5 steps ahead. He bridges DevOps rigor with AI workflows like it's second nature. Clean infra, predictable deploys, zero drama.”

Kamaljit SinghFounder, IndraOps Technologies

“It's like he can see inside your head what you want to explain and will start improvising on them, and then all you will be saying is yes, yes, exactly.”

Kumar RaviAssociate Staff Engineer, Nagarro

Ways I can help you.

Ongoing

On your team

as a Fractional CTO, an AI Architect, a Head of AI, an AI Solutions Architect

I shape the architecture and take the model and vendor calls with you, in writing, with the reasoning.
I own delivery: what ships, when, and whether it clears the bar before customers see it.
I own quality and security: the evals, the guardrails and the answers your enterprise buyers ask for.
I keep a fixed slice of every week for your team, stated before it starts, and a line to me between calls.
I leave a decision log your board can read, so the reasoning outlives the call.

Call it what fits your team. The job is the same: the hard calls, taken with you, and a team that knows where it is going.

As needed

A one-time engagement

For one specific need, with a clear end. In the order teams usually need them.

01Demo-to-production plan to take your system from a working demo into production, with the model and vendor calls and the reasoning.
02Decision session on the one call holding up the quarter: a model, a vendor, build or buy. A decision you can defend, written up.
03Architecture review before you scale: what gets expensive or fragile at ten times today’s usage, and what to change first.
04Production readiness audit of your agent on your real use cases, against the six gates a production system has to pass.
05Release gate that every release has to clear before customers see it: evals, guardrails, regression set, rollback.
06Enterprise buyer pack with the answers your buyers will accept on security, reliability, data handling and cost.
07Cost reduction pass to find where the money goes per task, and what to change first to bring it down.
08Technical due diligence on an AI company you are about to back, before the wire. Only where I have no stake.

What I build when the day is done.
