@richardmaranga
I build production AI systems and backend infrastructure that reduce latency, cost, and cycle time.
KenyaWhat I'm looking for
I've taken six AI products from concept to production at Fasihi, including Voiant, a voice AI platform handling 1,000+ calls daily, and Qualra, a RAG research coordinator processing 15,000 messages per day.
I build RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, voice AI, and event-driven data systems across TypeScript, Python, Go, Kafka, ClickHouse, and AWS. My work has cut handle time by 25%, evaluation cycles by 3x, query latency by 40%, and report generation time by 70% while shipping reliable systems from APIs to frontend.
