AI-focused full-stack developer building codebase assistants with RAG, streaming agents, and secure APIs.
ZimbabweWhat I'm looking for
I built an AI Repo Assistant that answers natural-language questions about any GitHub repository, grounded in real code via RAG.
I put together an agent from scratch (no LangChain) with a tool registry, a think→act→observe loop, and SSE streaming for live reasoning traces.
To make it production-style, I wired async FastAPI with Next.js/TypeScript, engineered an AST-level RAG pipeline using Gemini embeddings and MongoDB Atlas vector search, and added a custom evaluation harness.
I also shipped other full-stack work like PropertyDeal with a normalized PostgreSQL/SQLAlchemy schema and JWT + bcrypt auth with 3-role RBAC.
