# Andrei Mărcuț — Co-Founder & Software Development Consultant

Building AI-native systems, production software, and developer tooling. Two decades of hands-on engineering, now amplified with agentic coding mastery.

## About

Two decades of hands-on professional experience building products with clean UX, strong performance, and systems that hold up under real load. Disciplined SDLC, structured workflows, and proven engineering techniques, amplified with agentic coding mastery.

Co-founder of Creative Glue Lab, a product studio. Currently building vibion, an open-source platform where AI agents operate full computers: containers, tools, orchestration, self-evolution. Sole architect, built with agentic coding.

### Personality

- Direct and blunt communicator
- Builder mentality — ships production software, not prototypes
- Values correctness over cleverness
- Disciplined engineering process amplified by AI tooling
- Open-source advocate with sovereignty focus
- Thinks in systems and architecture

## Services

### AI-Assisted Software Development

*Workshop / Training*

Live demonstration on your technical stack and SDLC. Your team sees the impact, keeps what gives them leverage.

A working session matched to your stack and workflow. Demonstrates coding agents, prompt engineering for code, AI-assisted review, and the discipline required to keep quality high when velocity increases. The goal is buy-in through results, not a sales pitch.

**Scope:**
- Live demonstrations with representative scenarios, not slides and theory
- Coding agents, AI-assisted debugging, and automated review in action
- Prompt patterns that reduce iteration cycles on real tasks
- Clear boundaries on what to delegate to AI and what to keep manual
- Tailored to your team's stack and current workflow

**Outcomes:**
- Team leaves with working AI workflows integrated into their existing process

**Stack:** AI-assisted development, Coding agents, Hands-on

### Product Build Sprint

*Idea to Production*

Structured engagement: idea to live product, shipped to production with AI-assisted development.

A fixed-scope engagement that takes a product idea through scoping, architecture, implementation, and deployment. AI-assisted development compresses timelines at every phase. Full-stack delivery. Agentic capabilities included when the product requires them: chat interfaces, agent orchestration, tool integrations.

**Scope:**
- Scope validation: what to build, what to cut, and why
- Full-stack architecture and implementation matched to the product
- AI-assisted development across the entire build cycle
- Agentic features when the product needs them: chat, agents, tool integrations
- Production deployment with CI/CD, monitoring, and documented handoff

**Outcomes:**
- Working product running in production with documented handoff

**Stack:** Full-stack, AI-assisted development, Agentic, AI-Native

### Agentic Solutions

*AI / Agentic Systems*

Agent orchestration, tool integrations, and AI-native toolchains built for production.

Production agentic systems: multi-agent orchestration, tool use, workflow automation, and AI-native infrastructure. Built from hands-on experience shipping real AI products.

**Scope:**
- Agentic orchestration: agents, sub-agents, tool use, and workflow composition
- Real-time event systems with SSE streaming, webhooks, and triggers
- Custom containers with package installation and image building
- MCP backend integration and multi-provider AI support
- Production hardening: monitoring, error handling, scalability

**Outcomes:**
- AI systems running in production with observable, maintainable operation

**Stack:** TypeScript, AI SDK, MCP, Docker, PostgreSQL, SSE

### Software Architecture Design

*Architecture / Systems Design*

Architecture that holds under growth. Clear boundaries, strict contracts, actionable blueprints.

Architecture design for products under growth pressure. Domain modeling, service boundaries, data flow, and deployment strategy, scoped to your team size and constraints. Every deliverable is an implementable blueprint with documented tradeoffs.

**Scope:**
- Domain-driven design with strict boundary enforcement
- Hexagonal architecture with port/adapter separation
- Data architecture: schema design, migrations, real-time sync
- Infrastructure as code and deployment strategy
- Architecture review and modernization of existing systems

**Outcomes:**
- Architecture that your team can actually follow and extend
- Documented decisions and tradeoffs with no ambiguity on technical direction

**Stack:** DDD, Hexagonal, Event-driven, IaC

### Software Development Consulting

*Consulting / Advisory*

Embedded technical guidance. Code reviews, architecture audits, and pairing to fix what's slowing your team down.

Technical consulting delivered embedded with your team. Code reviews, architecture audits, stack decisions, and hands-on pairing. I find the structural issues causing drag, fix them, and establish patterns your team can maintain without me.

**Scope:**
- Architecture audits and technical debt assessment
- Stack selection and technology decisions
- Code review and engineering standards
- Team workflow optimization and CI/CD setup
- Hands-on pairing and knowledge transfer

**Outcomes:**
- Clear technical roadmap that unblocks delivery
- Engineering practices your team can sustain independently

**Stack:** TypeScript, React, Node.js, PostgreSQL, AI-Native
