Agentic Web Application Development

Implement robust, scalable applications that enable autonomous AI agents using AI Frameworks (e.g. LangGraph) for complex multi-step reasoning and decision-making workflows. Build responsive, user-friendly interfaces that allow users to interact with, monitor, and control AI agents performing complex tasks and workflows.

Search & Retrieval Development

Implement web services and APIs that enable efficient search and retrieval of information from large-scale data repositories (e.g. Elastic / Redis) using hybrid search capabilities. Build data ingestion pipelines and vector indexing workflows that support real-time query processing and document retrieval.
