  • TrendReel, production LLM agent and RAG system (Python, LangChain, OpenAI, Groq/Llama 3, Claude, FastAPI, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL).
  • Designed and built a production multi-step LLM agent system: a script generation agent with a per-platform psychology database, 7 viral narrative frameworks, and structured quality scoring, switching between Claude and Groq backends in real time based on output metrics.
  • Implemented multi-provider LLM routing (Claude primary, Groq/Llama 3 fallback) with priority-chain failover and quality-based provider switching, achieving 95% inference cost reduction while holding measurable quality thresholds.
  • Built an advanced RAG-style retrieval pipeline with per-platform knowledge bases, semantic content matching, and structured output evaluation across 7 decision frameworks, directly analogous to multi-tenant context-based reasoning for enterprise document workflows.
  • BrainyAI, adaptive AI learning platform (Python, LangChain, Groq Llama 3.3-70B, OpenAI, Next.js, Supabase, Redis).
  • Integrated Groq Llama 3.3-70B with education-level-aware prompting, dynamically adjusting vocabulary depth, citation complexity, and reasoning style across four student proficiency tiers.
  • Nexus Prime, multi-tenant SaaS platform for marketing and growth automation (25 modules, 99 backend routers, 153 frontend files).
  • Built a 25-module, 99-router multi-tenant SaaS platform covering ad remix, affiliates, WhatsApp inbox, email, and cart recovery, serving four subscription tiers from $199 to $1,999 per month with integrated Stripe, Paystack, and Flutterwave billing.
  • AI Video Surveillance Platform, multi-tenant edge and cloud computer vision system currently in active client pitch.
  • Designed a multi-tenant AI video surveillance platform combining edge YOLO26 inference on NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX boxes with a central GKE cloud layer (Postgres, Pub/Sub, ClickHouse, R2, Keycloak) for event storage, dashboards, alerting, and multi-tenancy.
