Multi-Agent R&D Pipeline (3 Custom Agents) at Independent Project
Claude Code subagents, MCP, Pydantic V2, pytest, bandit
Designed and shipped 3 specialized agents that hand work down a line: a research agent writes a cited implementation spec, a coding agent builds the modular code and its tests, a review agent ranks findings by severity and applies the fixes. Each handoff is a structured document, so no stage depends on another agent's context window.
Connected the research agent to an academic-research MCP server (Semantic Scholar, ArXiv, Hugging Face Hub, citation snowballing) so every reference traces to a tool result rather than the model. Gated commits behind ruff, mypy, pytest and bandit, required human sign-off before installs and commits, and persisted session state on disk so long runs survive a context reset.

Multi-Agent Document-Generation Platform
Problem:
Turn a single prompt into a well-researched, structured and cited document, while keeping the user in control: every stage can be reviewed, corrected or revisited before the system moves on.
Architecture:
A multi-agent system orchestrated by a central controller. More than 20 specialised pydantic-ai subagents (understanding, structuring, planning, research, writing, assembly, cross-reference check, glossary, citation, reference table and more) pass results forward through a shared plan persisted in Postgres (asyncpg); a runner layer dispatches each task by name to its agent, and mechanical steps such as formatting, table of contents and list of figures are deterministic code instead of LLM calls. Provider (Anthropic or OpenAI) is a configuration setting, and responses stream over Server-Sent Events.
Hosting & Infrastructure:
Stateless container run as a Scaleway Serverless Container on a private network with managed PostgreSQL, object storage for finished documents and assets, and centralized log shipping (Loki / Scaleway Cockpit), provisioned with OpenTofu modules and deployed through GitLab CI; usage is metered per API key.
My Contribution & Key Decisions:
- Central decision controller: a satisfaction classifier turns the user's free-text feedback into a verdict (keep working, advance, cancel or revise an earlier task), and a middleware applies it to the plan. Plan progression supports jumping back to earlier tasks and re-running the stages after them.
- Research and writing fan-out: planning produces a plan from which a research-design agent generates individual research tasks and a writing-design agent generates individual writing tasks, each linked to the research it needs. Every task runs in its own dedicated agent with its own conversation history.
- Self-review and human-in-the-loop: after each step a critical-thinking agent reviews the output; the user can accept, refine, or ask questions about a critique before the plan advances.
- MCP integrations: two remote MCP servers, web search and internal document search, connected through pydantic-ai with retries and long-running tool-call timeouts. Classifier agents decide per task whether web search is needed, and a small model condenses raw search results into structured findings before they reach the writing agents.
Usage Metering:
Clients authenticate with an API key validated against a key-management service; consumption is charged in credits calculated from token usage per model plus a markup, and exhausted quota is answered with HTTP 429.

Agentic Automation and a RAG system
- This project involved extraction of intelligence data to support report writing for a company that provides geopolitical, global, commercial intelligence. The data have been gathered from a number of resources (interview transcripts, online data, internal documents), and then a knowledge base has been build from it. This was the basis of a complex RAG system, that was evaluated against a golden dataset. Agents have been used to find out the contradicting intelligence, the statements supporting each other, and to store back the generated knowledge.
Used: Python, RAG, LangGraph, LangChain, deepeval, MCP

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.

About the technology
Native Graph Database Architecture
Neo4j is an ACID-compliant native graph database built to store, manage, and query highly connected data. Unlike relational engines that rely on costly table joins, it uses index-free adjacency to traverse millions of relationships per second. It powers use cases where deep relationship traversal and real-time context matter.
Core Ecosystem and Tooling
The platform relies on declarative querying and specialized extensions to handle complex graph computations:
- Cypher query language for expressive path matching
- Graph Data Science library for centrality, community detection, and embeddings
- APOC utility procedures for data integration and graph refactoring
- Neo4j Aura for fully managed cloud deployments on major hyperscalers
Typical Enterprise Applications in Germany
Organizations across Germany deploy the Neo4j graph platform to solve structural data challenges across several domains:
- Fraud detection and AML networks in fintech and banking
- Supply chain mapping, bill of materials, and logistics optimization
- Identity and access management graphs for granular authorization
- Retrieval-augmented generation pipelines backed by knowledge graphs
Migration and Relational Offloading
Companies bring in external specialists when relational systems struggle with recursive queries, complex hierarchies, or multi-hop pathfinding. Migrating these workloads to a native graph database eliminates slow SQL join bottlenecks. External professionals design clean ETL pipelines, map relational schemas to labeled property graphs, and establish reliable dual-write patterns.
Integration with Modern Data Stacks
Production deployments require seamless synchronization with surrounding data infrastructure. Specialists connect the graph engine to Apache Kafka for event-driven updates, Elasticsearch or OpenSearch for full-text search, and cloud data warehouses like Snowflake. They also configure object-graph mappers such as Spring Data Neo4j or Neomodel for backend integration.
Hallmarks of Strong Graph Specialists
Top specialists write performant Cypher code by analyzing execution plans to prevent cartesian products and memory spikes. They structure labels, relationship types, and node properties to maximize index efficiency. Beyond database internals, they understand distributed clustering, backup automation, and secure enterprise deployment patterns.
Frequently asked questions
Need clarity? These are the questions we hear most often about Neo4j.
Neo4j excels at querying datasets where the connections between entities are just as important as the entities themselves. Common use cases include real-time fraud rings, supply chain route analysis, recommendation engines, and corporate knowledge graphs.
Relational databases navigate links through index lookups and expensive joins, which slow down as connections multiply. The Neo4j graph platform uses index-free adjacency, allowing constant-time relationship traversals regardless of total dataset volume, which document stores cannot match for deep graph paths.
Most production teams integrate Neo4j with Java, Python, TypeScript, or Go using official drivers. Backend specialists frequently employ Spring Data Neo4j, Python driver libraries, or GraphQL integrations to expose graph data to internal applications.
Yes, Neo4j is widely adopted as the foundation for GraphRAG pipelines. It combines vector search with explicit knowledge graphs, enabling language models to retrieve factual context, structured entity relationships, and multi-hop reasoning paths with high precision.
Look for deep proficiency in Cypher query profiling, indexing strategies, and data modeling patterns. A qualified specialist should demonstrate past success in tuning query execution plans, configuring enterprise clusters, and setting up clean ingestion pipelines.
Most companies in Germany engage Neo4j specialists remotely, with occasional on-site workshops in hubs like Berlin, Munich, or Frankfurt for initial architecture planning. Working across German and standard European time zones simplifies agile standups and real-time sprint alignment.
Technical deliverables, Cypher queries, and infrastructure code around Neo4j are almost universally handled in English. However, projects touching strict internal documentation or domain alignment in German automotive and banking sectors often benefit from bilingual professionals.
Yes, Neo4j provides full ACID guarantees, ensuring transactional consistency for write operations alongside fast reads. Specialists configure causal clustering and read replicas to scale query throughput across large production clusters reliably.
The average hourly rate of freelancers in Germany who have used Neo4j in their recent projects is 98 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 780 € based on an 8-hour working day.
Of the freelancers in Germany who have used Neo4j in their recent projects, 96% hold at least a Bachelor's degree, 71% hold at least a Master's degree, and 17% hold a doctorate.
On average, freelancers in Germany who have used Neo4j in their recent projects have 17 years of professional experience, with a single engagement typically lasting around 2.2 years.
The most common languages among freelancers in Germany who have used Neo4j in their recent projects are English (98%), German (97%), and Spanish (17%).
