FAQ
Here are the most common questions teams ask before working with me on AWS, serverless, and AI automation projects.
I design and implement AWS serverless backends, AI-powered web apps and APIs, automation workflows, and modernize legacy systems into scalable, event-driven architectures.
Yes. I typically run a cost audit, remove waste, resize resources, and redesign critical workloads using Lambda, DynamoDB, and other serverless services to cut 40–70% of backend costs.
Absolutely. I build AI workflows like ticket reduction, document parsing, internal FAQ bots, and help centers using providers such as OpenAI, Bedrock, and Llama 3.
I work with startups, SaaS teams, agencies, and enterprises. The engagement style changes based on your size, but the goal is always the same: fast, lean, production-ready systems.
We start with a short call to understand your stack and goals. Then I propose a focused plan—often a 1–2 week pilot to prove value before scaling to a larger roadmap.
Yes. I can stay on as an on-demand AWS/AI architect to review designs, ship new features, and keep costs under control via a flexible retainer or part-time engagement.
