Kumar Harsh Available for freelance work

Hi, I'm Harsh.

A freelance AI engineer who takes products from napkin concept to production, in days, not quarters.

I'm a freelance AI engineer and systems architect based in Bengaluru, India. I partner with founders, high-growth startups and visionary teams around the world to take AI products from napkin concept to production reality.

My foundation was forged at enterprise scale: architecting AI agent pipelines at Allianz Technology, leading generative AI R&D for engineering automation at Dassault Systèmes, and building IoT software at UST. Today my focus is rapid zero-to-one execution, combining LLM reasoning, vector memory layers and smooth React 19 interfaces.

I bridge the gap between cutting-edge LLM research and production software

Reliable autonomous agents, low-latency streaming interfaces and resilient data pipelines that founders can scale.

How I work

Production, not prompt scripts.

Full-stack AI with streaming UX and vector infrastructure, not just notebooks.

Keep a human in the loop.

Review guardrails, token budgets and observability on every agent I build.

Plan for provider failure.

Fallback cascades, retry budgets and circuit breakers, so a rate limit never becomes an outage.

Ship in weeks, not quarters.

A zero-to-one sprint takes 10–14 days, with CI/CD ready on day 14.
