Fractional Agentic Systems Architect

I design and build AI agent infrastructure. Not prompt engineering — the layer under it: memory systems, multi-agent orchestration, autonomous pipelines, credential management. The stuff that makes agents actually work.

Fractional retainer · 10–20 hrs/week

Not a project. Not a one-off. An ongoing relationship where I act as your agent infrastructure lead — part-time, remote.

What I do

Agent architecture

Design the stack: gateway, knowledge store, credential proxy, deployment pipelines. Choose models, tools, and orchestration patterns.

Multi-agent systems

Orchestration, handoff protocols, role-based tool access. Agents that chain together without context loss.

Autonomous pipelines

Cron, systemd, background workers. Agents that run benchmarks, audit infra, and deploy while you sleep.

On-prem / regulated

Behind-the-firewall agent gateways. Compliance specs, audit trails. Fintech, health, defense.

Team enablement

Teach your engineers the 10-pattern methodology. They don't need me forever — they need the patterns.

Benchmarking & model selection

Code quality vs agent readiness. Which models actually work for tool calling. Daily data, not vibes.

Who this is for

Series A/B startups that need agent infrastructure but can't hire a full-time architect. I set up the stack, train the team, stay on retainer.

Regulated companies (fintech, health, defense) that need on-prem agent gateways with compliance specs and audit trails.

Venture studios running multiple portfolio companies — one architect across all of them, same patterns, shared pitfall registry.

Engineering teams adopting AI agents for the first time and hitting the wall: agents forget, make the same mistakes, need constant hand-holding. I fix the infrastructure so the agents actually work.

How it works

1. We talk. 2. I audit your stack or design from scratch. 3. I build the infrastructure: gateway, knowledge store, skills, pipelines. 4. I train your team on the 10 patterns. 5. I stay on retainer — fractional, ongoing.

Remote. US/UK timezones. Async-first — Slack, GitHub, Notion.
