Available for consulting and strategic projects

I design the architecture that makes AI work beyond the demo.

AI & Systems Architect Engineer. I help companies take RAG, agents and MCP from prototype to production, with governance, cost and observability from day one.

How I help

Three ways to work, one method.

01 · MAIN

AI architecture in production

I design the architecture, engineering, and governance of solutions that combine AI, data, and systems. I turn AI initiatives from exciting prototypes into reliable, scalable, and secure operations, with a strong focus on context orchestration and MCP (Model Context Protocol).

  • →RAG, agents, and AI flow architecture with guardrails, continuous evaluation, and MCP-based standardization
  • →Design of inference systems, context orchestration, policies, and audit trails
  • →Integration between AI, APIs, and legacy systems without operational risk
  • →Governance, quality, cost, and observability for production AI

02

Cloud and technology strategy

Translation of business strategy into concrete cloud, platform, data, and engineering decisions. I help executives, product teams, and architects make choices with balanced TCO, risk, and scale.

  • →Architectural roadmaps, trade-offs, and legacy modernization
  • →Strategy and deployment across AWS, Azure, and GCP with governance
  • →Platform cost, performance, and resilience optimization
Format consulting→
03

End-to-end projects (contractor)

Years of experience leading projects autonomously as a freelancer and independent consultant, with end-to-end delivery in real-world stacks. Ideal for clients who need problem ownership, not just technical hands.

  • →Full projects in Python, Django, PHP, Angular, .NET, Node.js, and React
  • →Architecture and implementation deployed on AWS / Azure / GCP
  • →Integrations, modernization, APIs, and enterprise front-ends

If you want to accelerate critical decisions in architecture, AI, cloud, or modernization, I also work through mentorship and strategic consulting formats — with individual sessions, a shared calendar, and clearly defined scope. Explore mentorship and consulting →

Cases

Real decisions, documented as ADRs.

MCPRAGContext OrchestrationPython

Enterprise RAG with context orchestration and MCP

ChallengeInternal assistant with multiple data sources and fragmented RAG produced inconsistent answers, high context costs, and weak governance.
Architecture and solutionI standardized the exposure of sources and tools through MCP, designed a context orchestration layer with permissions, caching, and continuous evaluation, and redesigned the RAG pipeline per use case.
OutcomeGreater consistency across assistants, lower prompt cost per query, centralized governance, and a foundation for new AI integrations without rewriting layers.
# ADR · Standardize context access via MCP
status: accepted

## Context
Several assistants, each with its own RAG.
Inconsistent answers and no audit trail for context.

## Decision
Expose each source and tool as an MCP server.
Separate context orchestration with permissions and caching.

## Trade-offs
+ reuse, central governance, swap models without rewrites
− a new layer to operate and observe
New · Ask the blog

An assistant that shows how it was built.

Ask anything about AI architecture. Answers come from my articles, with sources cited and the trace visible: retrieved chunks, latency and answer mode. My thesis, working in practice.

About

Nice to meet you, I am Wictor. You talk directly to me.

I started building for the web, moved on to stock exchange microservices, home broker and post-trading at Itaú, and cloud, DevOps and security platforms. Today I use all of it for one thing: making AI work in production.

I am not an agency or a sales team. The person who runs the diagnosis, designs the architecture and follows the execution is me.
