Juan Carlos Cadavid RuizAI Engineer · Applied AI & LLM Agents · Cloud & Automation Architect

I'm a software engineer with 15+ years shipping product, currently focused on production AI systems: LLMs, RAG, and autonomous agents on AWS. What I care about most is software that actually ships — that replaces manual work and moves real business metrics.

At CGIAR I lead the delivery of the Agricultural Risk Intelligence Tool: a serverless NestJS + Next.js monorepo on AWS Bedrock that turns unstructured agricultural and climate data into actionable insights. Before that, I led cross-system integrations between legacy platforms (MARLO, PRMS, STAR, CLARISA) using LLMs and agents to dramatically reduce executive reporting cycle times.

I'm self-taught, hands-on across the full lifecycle (from identifying friction to scaling to production), and I translate technical capability into measurable impact for non-technical stakeholders. If you need an AI Engineer who combines technical depth, stakeholder management, and DevOps discipline — let's talk.
