I build Applied AI systems that ship, from prototype to production, focused on LLMs, RAG, agents, and scalable cloud platforms. With 20 years writing software across backend, cloud, and AI, I turn complex ideas into reliable, cost-efficient products with measurable value. Today I build Applied AI at SOFA Digital, and I write about LLMs, RAG, and agents on my blog, allanferreira.dev.
