Case Studies

Real projects, measurable outcomes. Here's how I've helped organizations transform their technology and achieve business goals.

AI SaaS / Platform

Lasius: Enterprise AI Platform on Kubernetes

Role: AI Platform & DevOps Architect

A financial-services firm was drowning in ungoverned 'Shadow AI' — unmanaged tools and API keys leaking sensitive data and breaking compliance. They needed every employee on a secure, governed path to AI. Delivering that meant both a governed AI product and the reproducible, multi-environment cloud-native platform to run it on.

70% Lower cost than a custom build — roughly $1.5-2M down to $150-300K
300% First-year ROI — about $2M Year-1 value on a $500K investment
GitOps Every change flows through Git + Argo CD on one multi-tenant EKS cluster serving 3 isolated environments
AgriTech / Public Sector

Secure Cloud Operations for an AgriTech Platform

Role: Cloud Solutions Architect

An agricultural e-commerce and analytics platform ran on a legacy managed-Kubernetes setup with weak governance, inconsistent tagging, and thin security controls — putting it at risk of CIS/GDPR non-compliance while manual operations and overprovisioning drove up cost and slowed incident response.

100% Compliance with CIS and GDPR across all accounts, up from 40% of resources untagged
99% Platform uptime after migration and hardening
80% Reduction in Mean Time to Detect for incidents
Marketing Technology / AI

GenAI Multi-Agent Platform for Automated Video Generation

Role: AI / Cloud Solutions Architect

Marketing video production was slow, costly, and dependent on specialized creative talent, taking 2-3 days per video and making it impossible to scale content across campaigns, regions, and languages. The client needed to turn a simple text prompt into a publish-ready, brand-aligned video in minutes.

80% Faster time-to-video — from 2-3 days down to under 20 minutes
60-70% Cost reduction by eliminating full-time creative staff and legacy software licenses
5x Customer scale supported within the first month of launch
InsurTech

GenAI Claims Automation Platform for an InsurTech

Role: Cloud Solutions Architect

An insurance claims platform was drowning in slow, manual claim processing — long turnaround times, high operational cost, inconsistent decisions, and limited fraud detection. They needed to transition to an automated, scalable GenAI workflow without sacrificing compliance or explainability.

80%+ Reduction in claims lifecycle time through automated document handling and fraud checks
~$1,146 Monthly total cost of ownership on the ECS-based AWS architecture
Sub-second Real-time fraud probability scoring at claim submission
Health & Fitness

Cloud Foundation for an AI-Driven Fitness Platform

Role: Cloud / AI Solutions Architect

The platform's generic, one-size-fits-all programs left members disengaged, with roughly 65% of new subscribers dropping off within three months. There was no personalized guidance, no consistent coaching, and no real-time feedback — and no cloud foundation capable of supporting AI personalization at scale.

~65% churn Targeted the pre-existing three-month dropout rate with personalized, adaptive guidance
Higher retention Real-time feedback and AI coaching improved engagement and adherence
Responsible AI Safety guardrails and privacy compliance built into every AI interaction with health data
HR Tech / Recruitment

Generative-AI Recruitment Platform

Role: AI Solutions Architect

As the platform moved to adopt Generative AI across its hiring and talent workflows, it lacked a structured approach to model selection, prompt design, and governance — leaving AI outputs inconsistent and raising concerns around bias, fairness, and explainability.

73% Reduction in per-candidate screening time (~45 min to ~12 min)
90% Of job descriptions now auto-generated for consistency and speed
40% Fewer manual early-stage interviews, freeing recruiter time
Enterprise IT / Cybersecurity

Agentic AI Helpdesk Automation (Lasius Lite)

Role: AI / Platform Architect

Skilled engineers were spending 60%+ of their time on repetitive L1 work — password resets, access requests, and alert triage — while support costs scaled linearly with every new client. SLA breaches surfaced only after they happened, and every new environment meant rebuilding onboarding, ticketing, and knowledge transfer from scratch.

78% L1 tickets auto-resolved end-to-end without human intervention
<5 min Average resolution time, down from 30+ minutes of manual work
91% Ticket classification accuracy from NLP intent extraction
Financial Services / Asset Management

ICAAS: Agentic Contact Center on Amazon Connect

Role: AI Solution Architect

Customer service scaled linearly with headcount, and a lean investor-relations and operations team was drowning in repetitive, high-touch inquiries — account lookups, balance checks, KYC and document requests. Manual handling created compliance exposure, and clients across time zones had no after-hours coverage.

<10s End-to-end response time for autonomous inquiries, from customer message to answer
24/7 Autonomous coverage — routine inquiries resolved end-to-end with no human in the loop and no after-hours gap
~120 AWS resources provisioned and configured from a single AWS CDK deploy command
Healthcare / SaaS

Healthcare Data Security & HIPAA Compliance

Role: Cloud Security Architect

A healthcare SaaS provider held vast amounts of sensitive data — medical records, insurance claims, and lab results — fragmented across systems with inconsistent security and manual processes. They needed to secure this data and meet HIPAA compliance without disrupting operations.

-45% Reduction in data breach risk
100% HIPAA compliance achieved
-60% Fewer manual compliance checks
Media / Web

Resilient Cloud Migration for a Content & Community Platform

Role: Cloud / DevOps Engineer

The platform ran on a single Ubuntu VM with a self-managed MySQL database and SFTP-based releases, capping it at roughly 2,000 concurrent users and causing frequent overloads and downtime during traffic spikes. Deployments took 2-3 hours and there was no automated backup or disaster recovery.

5x Concurrent user capacity, from ~2,000 to 10,000+
99% Uptime sustained through peak traffic on Multi-AZ infrastructure
~15 min Deployments, down from 2-3 hours via automated CI/CD
AI/ML / AgriTech

MLOps Pipeline for Agricultural Yield Prediction

Role: MLOps / Cloud Architect

The client needed an automated MLOps architecture on AWS to forecast crop yield and demand from seasonal, soil, fertilizer, and weather data. The system also had to recommend the optimal crops to plant per area and season to maximize yield.

Automated forecasts Seasonal predictions for total yield, yield possibility, and the best crops per area and season
Self-healing retraining Fully automated retraining loop triggered by new data, with no manual intervention
Continuous monitoring CloudWatch and Step Functions surface evaluation metrics to keep models honest over time
Developer Tools / SaaS

Kubernetes Platform for a Code-Generation SaaS

Role: Tech Lead — Cloud & DevOps

A code-generation SaaS was running on self-managed EC2 instances that couldn't scale to meet demand, ran up high operational costs, and offered weak observability with no multi-AZ high availability. Sudden traffic spikes led to bottlenecks and service disruptions.

-70% Reduction in log search time through centralized logging and analytics
<5 min From commit to production deployment, at 10-20 deploys per week
-45% Reduction in mean time to recover (MTTR)
Marketing / Media

Agentic AI Workflow for Content & SEO

Role: AI Engineer

Content production was time-consuming and labor-intensive, with inconsistent quality that was hard to scale. Manual editing and review processes were error-prone and couldn't keep pace with publishing demands.

Faster lifecycle Streamlined the content lifecycle from curation to publication
Better structure Enhanced content structure and internal linking for SEO
Higher SERP Improved search rankings and click-through rates
AI / SaaS

Multi-Account Cloud Governance for a Conversational-AI SaaS

Role: Cloud Governance Architect

After a successful migration to AWS, the platform scaled fast but ungoverned — over-permissive IAM, no centralized compliance visibility, runaway costs, and environment drift left security reactive and enterprise audits nearly impossible.

95% Faster account provisioning — from 1-2 weeks to under 1 hour
85% Reduction in compliance effort — 40+ to 6 hours per month
99.9% Faster policy violation detection — 72 hours to under 5 minutes
Data & Analytics

GenAI-Augmented ETL Data Pipeline

Role: Data / AI Engineer

The client's data pipeline was struggling with unmanaged data sources, scalability limits, and high data latency, while brittle error handling and heavy manual intervention made every incident a fire drill.

Efficiency Streamlined operations by replacing manual steps with automated, orchestrated workflows
Data Quality Enrichment, cleansing, and labeling improved consistency and integrity across sources
Ingestion More reliable, scalable ingestion and processing with lower data latency
Communications / FinTech

Re-Architecting a High-Volume SMS Platform for Scale & Cost

Role: Cloud / DevOps Architect

The application and every worker process ran together on a single host, and a sudden CPU spike forced a costly vertical bump from a t3.2xlarge to an m5.4xlarge just to stay online. The platform needed true horizontal auto-scaling and a handle on cost, without downtime for a service sending and receiving multiple messages per second.

Up to 72% Projected EC2 savings from Savings Plans vs on-demand pricing on the committed baseline
Single-host Bottleneck eliminated by separating application and worker tiers onto independent node groups
Horizontal Auto-scaling replaces reactive vertical instance bumps under load
Data Analytics & Web Scraping

Cloud-Native Migration for a Data-Extraction Platform

Role: Cloud Solutions Architect

The client's on-premises legacy infrastructure couldn't scale with a surging customer base, driving cost overruns, weak observability and security, and slow manual CI/CD. Peak-time scraping jobs degraded, SLAs slipped, and manual patching and provisioning drained engineering time.

20% TCO reduction, roughly $14.5K/year returned to R&D and automation
90% Fewer HTTP 5xx errors after the migration
40% Lower mean time to recovery (MTTR)
