Fractional AI lead and independent builder. I partner with operators to turn LLM and agent systems into measurable revenue — no research decks, just production code that ships inside a quarter.
Most teams still justwrapAI.
You should be compounding it — shipping systems that get cheaper, smarter and more valuable every quarter.
Three ways to work with me — each engineered for compounding ROI.
Every engagement starts with a free 30-minute consult so pricing fits your problem, not a template. Walk out with a firm, outcome-priced quote inside 48 hours.
AI Strategy Sprint
Two weeks of interviews, data review and architecture calls. You leave with a ranked opportunity map, a ROI model per bet, and a 90-day plan your team can run the Monday after.
- Full stack audit and data readiness review
- Opportunity map ranked by ROI and technical risk
- 90-day build plan with owners and go/no-go gates
- Executive-ready deck and live briefing
Agentic Systems Build
I ship a production agent or AI feature end-to-end — evals, guardrails, observability and the ops handoff. Your team owns the repo, the runbooks and the roadmap when I leave.
- Production RAG, tools, memory and eval harness
- Cost and latency budgets hit before launch
- CI/CD, observability and on-call runbooks
- Team handover with internal docs and walkthroughs
Fractional AI Lead
Embedded with your team as head of AI. I own roadmap, hiring and vendor calls so your execs stop guessing. 30-day cancel, no lock-in.
- Roadmap ownership and weekly execution reviews
- Vendor and model selection (OpenAI, Anthropic, open weights)
- Hiring bar-raising and technical interviews
- Quarterly board readouts with metrics that matter
Six production systems, and the P&L behind each one.
Every project ships with measured outcomes. Pick one to see the architecture, the trade-offs I made, and what I owned end-to-end.

Numbers I can show you, and a stack I have shipped in production.
Five steps, zero theatre.
How engagements actually run, from a discovery call to a system your team owns and extends.
Discover
Two weeks of interviews, data pulls and workflow mapping. We leave with a ranked opportunity map, not a wish list.
Design
I spec the system the way a senior engineer would: contracts, evals, guardrails, cost and latency budgets, runbooks.
Build
Small weekly releases behind flags. Every change ships with tests, traces and an eval gate. No demo-ware.
Deploy
We cut over behind a shadow window and measure the real thing — $ saved, cycle time down, CSAT up.
Compound
We layer the next bet on top. The goal is a system that gets cheaper and smarter per quarter, not a one-off win.
The short version from the operators I worked with.
“Himanshu replaced eight months of prototypes with one system that paid for itself in the first quarter. He ships like a staff engineer and presents like a partner.”
“The consult gave us a scalpel. We killed two pet projects, doubled the headcount on the one that mattered, and shipped it 40 days later.”
“He held our team to a bar we could not hold ourselves to. The evals he left behind are still our release gate.”
