AI Architect — 1 Month Intensive

"Build the systems that other operators sell."

By week 4 you will have a deployed production AI system: a multi-agent workflow with RAG, evals, observability, and a $5k-25k enterprise offer ready to pitch.

Who this is for

Senior devs, AI engineers, agency owners, technical founders. You already ship — you want institutional-grade AI infrastructure patterns and an enterprise-ready offer.

Prerequisites

  • Production coding experience (any language) — JS/TS or Python preferred
  • Have shipped at least one paid product or significant client project
  • Comfortable with Git, CLI, cloud deployment (Vercel/Railway/AWS)
  • Existing client pipeline or audience

4 weeks · day by day

There is a 10× gap between demo-quality AI and production AI. We bridge it this week.

Model layer · orchestration · retrieval · eval · observabilityvideo · 45 min

The 5 layers, the 3 best vendors per layer, and the decision criteria for each. We audit 3 real production stacks (one fintech, one healthtech, one media).

  • Sketch your reference architecture for a client
Build vs buy — the operator's matrixvideo · 30 min

When LangChain wins, when raw SDK wins, when n8n wins, when Vercel AI SDK wins. Cost, latency, team-skill calculus.

Lab: deploy a baseline LLM API with monitoringlab · 90 min

Vercel AI SDK + OpenAI + Helicone + Sentry. Edge function, streaming, cost tracking, error capture.

  • Live endpoint with full observability
Live: roundtable with 2 alumni CTOslive · 90 min

Off-the-record Q&A. Real PnL, real client horror stories, current open hires.

Homework

Submit your 1-page reference architecture for the client you'll build for this month. Head trainer reviews personally.

Most RAG demos look great. Most RAG products fail QA. Here's why — and how to ship the ones that don't.

Hybrid retrieval (BM25 + embeddings) + rerankingvideo · 45 min

Why pure-vector retrieval misses 30% of relevant docs. Cohere rerank, Voyage rerank, when each wins.

  • Implement hybrid retrieval with rerank
Chunking strategies in real document setsvideo · 30 min

Markdown, PDF, code, transcripts — each needs different chunking. Live benchmarks on a 1,000-doc corpus.

Lab: build a production RAG pipeline (Supabase pgvector + OpenAI + Cohere)lab · 120 min

Ingestion pipeline, hybrid search, rerank, citation extraction, streaming UI. Code reviewed line by line.

  • RAG live on staging URL
  • Citations rendering inline
Eval suite: hit rate, MRR, citation accuracy, hallucination ratevideo · 45 min

Promptfoo + custom evals + LLM-as-judge. Sample of 50 queries, scored automatically per CI.

Live: ship to prod with mentor watchinglive · 60 min

Pair-deploy on real client data. Mentor catches the bugs you didn't see.

Homework

Run 50-query eval on your RAG; submit hit-rate, MRR, and 5 worst-failures with proposed fixes.

Function calling, JSON schema, OpenAI Structured Outputs.
