agentic-engineer.online is my publicly testable live demo and at the same time the platform where I show my work. Originally created as a recruitment trial task, I have since continued to run it as my own demo, learning, and product project — on a Hetzner VPS behind a Cloudflare tunnel, through a multi-stage AI-orchestrated deploy pipeline with snapshot rollback. If a deploy step breaks, the system falls back to the last clean snapshot, the script is adjusted, the test repeated — empirical, test-driven, without hand tuning.

• Technically behind it: Python and FastAPI, an OpenRouter model cascade, SQLite persistence, and Cloudflare edge tuning.
• I am the developer and the strictest customer of my own AI work in one person — what started as a prototype has become a tool I use every day and against which I test my own products.

• Delivered MVP-focused full-stack architecture for a health-sector client: Vite/React frontend, backend services on Google Cloud Run, and Supabase for database plus IAM/authentication.
• Supported product requirements engineering and prioritized cost-aware workload placement, implementing browser-side/edge computation where feasible before moving logic to backend services.

• Created a multi-agentic system supported by a knowledge graph to automate drafting of research papers
• Used multiple experts (OpenAI models) collaborating during document drafting
• Extracted useful information from the knowledge graph
• Technologies: LangChain, LangGraph, Smolagents, LlamaIndex, dspy
• Infrastructure: Terraform and GitHub Actions (CI/CD) on AWS
• Deployed initial application as a Streamlit app

UEF 3.0 · Semantic Government Overlay (SGO) · Autonomous Systems (UAS / dual use)

• Designed: Semantic Government Overlay (SGO) – AI-guided administration without replacing existing specialist procedures. Read-only semantic layer over registers and specialist processes based on the Federal Information Management (FIM). Decision authority remains with the case worker (architecture principle).
• Developed: Reference architecture with source-backed, derived statements (Executable Ontologies OWL/RDF/SHACL). Technically guaranteed purpose limitation and no-write-path principle in specialist data – auditable, without a central data pool.
• Anchored: Regulation as a design principle: EU AI Act (high-risk obligations for public-sector AI, fundamental rights impact assessment under Art. 27), GDPR, NIS2, and administrative automation limits (§ 35a VwVfG, § 31a SGB X) as technical control points in the architecture.
• Created: Methodical tool for pilot organizations: data pipeline assessment (phase 0), compliance blueprint, and management summary as a decision-ready package for public administration.
• Specified: UEF 3.0 as a successor architecture to TOGAF – decision paper, canonical ontology, six-layer architecture, read/actuate boundary, federation registry, terminology concordance, and release delta as a closed specification status.
• Architected: AI-native mission OS for autonomous UAS and ground robotics as a tactical layer on top of a separately approved autopilot. Run-time assurance according to ASTM F3269-21 (Simplex pattern): the verified safety controller keeps authority, the AI function provides suggestions.
• Designed: Three-tier architecture – Tier 0 autopilot with 650 Hz flight control on RTOS, Tier 1 AI OS with semantic world model and multi-agent cluster, Tier 2 swarm and ground mesh. Zenoh as the primary fabric, MAVLink as the only authenticated command path (single writer). Result: graceful degradation – loss of the mission, not of the aircraft.
• Secured: Two-gate chain on the read/actuate boundary – governance gate (can-question: AI Act risk class per actuation, enforced human oversight under Art. 14, immutable log) before the RTA safety monitor (is-it-correct question: flight envelope, geofence, energy reserve) with revert to the baseline controller.
• Anchored: Dual-use architecture with common core and build-time fork instead of runtime switch. Three separate legal levels: civil variant – UAS under the EASA Basic Regulation (EU) 2018/1139 with the limited applicability under Art. 2(2) of the AI Act, ground robotics under the Machinery Regulation 2023/1230 with the full high-risk obligation chain, Cyber Resilience Act for both; unarmed carrier variant as defense material under AWG/AWV and Dual-Use Regulation 2021/821 (BAFA approval); armed variant under KrWaffKontrG. Each variant lives under exactly one dominant legal regime. Evidence base: AI BOM, SBOM, and complete data lineage.
• Analyzed: System analysis and realignment of grown engineering system landscapes. Approach concept for consolidation without migration – semantic layer over the existing sources instead of data transfer. Result: decision-ready implementation concept including an evaluation model for the target architecture.

• Partner directly with C-level leadership (CEO, CAIO, CTO) on architecture, OKR strategy, and cross-team roadmap prioritization, translating strategic goals into structured engineering requirements.
• Surfaced and mapped technical debt across the entire organization with C-level leadership and co-defined a prioritized remediation strategy, balancing debt paydown against feature delivery.

• Re-architected the AI companion's core processing pipeline from synchronous to asynchronous with a queue-based worker architecture, enabling horizontal scalability and cutting upload processing time ~4x (from ~22s to 5–10s) while improving response accuracy.
• Designed an AI-driven document intelligence workflow with automatic multi-document classification, per-document summarization, and relevance guardrails for the patient care journey.
• Built a unified patient memory system (short- and long-term context) bridging the document vault and chatbot into a single bidirectional, context-aware platform.

Product development (actively in progress)

BankingGPT - AI assistant for complaint management in cooperative banking

• Security architecture at the core: no AI draft reaches the customer without human approval - the approval decision is in auditable code, not in the language model (monotonic: the model may escalate, never downgrade).
• Real agentic building blocks, each with its own boundary: the model chooses tools itself through an MCP server (read-only, allowlist, capped, fail-safe); sensitive cases are handed off via an open A2A protocol (JSON-RPC, Agent Card, message/send/tasks/get; client implemented by me) to a separate specialist agent (securities/law), which never lowers the review requirement (pinned by test).
• Evaluation-driven over ten analysis rounds; uncovered a security flaw through independent review and blind tests that nine automated runs had missed.
• Voice AI frontend, responding live: covered cases are answered in the conversation, sensitive ones escalate before generation; response latency < 7 s measured (local GPU STT/TTS).

Stack & production readiness: Python, pydantic-ai, FastAPI/Celery, PostgreSQL/pgvector, FastMCP, fasta2a, Docker; multi-tenant capable (physical vector isolation per tenant), PII encrypted, OWASP-LLM reviewed, 275 tests, CI/CD; vendor-portable (Ollama / EU Cloud Vertex).

After-Sales Assistant - agentic RAG/GraphRAG assistant on public OEM manuals (automotive after-sales)

• Genuinely agentic on LangGraph: ReAct agent with four tools and conversation memory - the model decides on its own whether to use the manual (RAG, Chroma), a knowledge graph (GraphRAG, Neo4j/Cypher - decodes warning lights), or a workshop/booking service.
• Human-in-the-Loop before the irreversible action: before every appointment booking, the graph pauses (interrupt) and gets the driver's explicit confirmation - the same approval-before-action discipline as in BankingGPT, in a different framework.
• Eval as CI gate: a three-part scorecard (RAGAS grounding + deterministic tool-routing accuracy + DeepEval safety: does the answer mention the warning first when there is a critical warning?) blocks the pipeline; provider-agnostic (OpenAI/Azure/Anthropic), FastAPI with token streaming.

Stack: Python, LangChain/LangGraph, Chroma, Neo4j, RAGAS/DeepEval, FastAPI, Docker.
