# About the practice

I am a senior full stack developer working as a fractional applied AI engineer. I embed with a company for a few months and ship AI agents and LLM features into the work it already does, so you get working software instead of another pilot.

## Background

The companies I work with are small and mid-size. The buyer is usually a founder, a CTO, or an operations lead who needs to hire an applied AI engineer for a period of time, and does not want a full-time hire yet.

I take the title forward deployed engineer literally. I work in your repository, with the people who run the workflow, until the system is in the environment they use. A longer explanation of that role, and how it differs from a consultant or an agency, is on the [forward deployed engineer](https://fractionalappliedai.com/forward-deployed-engineer) page.

The kinds of build I take are listed under [services](https://fractionalappliedai.com/services) . If you want to talk, the [contact](https://fractionalappliedai.com/contact) page has the intro call and the email address.

## Selected work

Bring one workflow and the system it lives in. I will tell you whether I am the right person, and what the first stretch of work would cover.
