One senior AI engineer, orchestrating a fleet of AI agents, ships what a Dedicated AI Development Team of five would take months to build. Live in days. Led by ex-IBM founders, not recruiters.
Trusted by teams at
The hiring grind · By the numbers
of recurring tasks automated for one client in weeks, not quarters.
The average time to fill a senior tech role is now 3-6 months. By the time you find a candidate, your roadmap is already delayed.
Founders waste hours coordinating contractors and chasing status updates. One senior AI engineer running a fleet of agents removes that overhead, so you get a dedicated AI development team without becoming the project manager.
Freelancers ghost. Skills vary. You need proven AI Development Company standards, not guesses.
The shift
Stop searching for unicorns or building an AI dev team from scratch. Hire AI developers who run a fleet of AI agents instead of a bench of freelancers.
Don't wait 3 months to hire AI developers. One senior AI engineer and a fleet of AI agents deploy within days and start shipping from Day 1.
Every engagement runs on proven agent orchestration systems. You get the delivery standard of a dedicated AI development team, built by ex-IBM founders.
Add agents to the fleet or scale back instantly. No payroll, no long-term contracts, just results from your dedicated AI development team.

How our engineers actually work
25 AI-native engineers, trained in-house by Walid. Every one of them ships with the same agent stack we use ourselves - that's why one of our engineers ships like three normal hires.
01 · Design
We audit your stack, decide what runs as an agent, what runs as n8n, what stays manual. Roadmap locked in week one.
02 · Build
Engineer embeds in your Slack, gets repo access, ships the first working automation in week two. No decks, real output.
03 · Operate
Weekly tuning, new automations, performance dashboards. The wedge. We don't hand over and walk away.
The spine · 5 tools, zero glue code
Claude Code is the brain. Everything else plugs in through MCP. The same opinionated stack across every engagement - from bootstrapped founders to publicly listed enterprise.
25 engineers on the bench. 1 dedicated per client. Same stack, same standard, every engagement.
We are a specialized AI Development Company led by engineers, for engineers.
The Architect: An n8n automation expert with deep expertise in product engineering.
The Strategist: A former AI Engineer at IBM with specialized expertise in GenAI and MLOps.
Powering automation for industry leaders
The new AI software engineering
The bottleneck moved to orchestration - who can wire agents, subagents, MCP connectors, and sandboxed compute into a system that ships. Our engineers were trained for exactly that.
We provide "Multiplier Workshops" to ensure your internal culture evolves alongside our code.
Structuring projects for speed and maintainability. Clean architecture is the standard.
Embed Generative AI deeply into everyday workflows to automate the "boring stuff."
Instilling the discipline of a Managed AI Development Team into your company DNA.
Three roles · one standard
Whether you need to Hire AI Developers or automate operations, we have the precise skill set.
Sits inside your team. Owns features end to end. Joins your standups, ships in your repo, debugs against real users on day one.
Automates the boring side of growth. Outbound pipelines, lead enrichment, CRM hygiene, signal scoring. Your sales team wakes up to qualified meetings.
Wires agentic systems. Subagents, MCP connectors, hooks, skills. Builds the internal AI infrastructure your team will compound on for years.

Why leading tech firms switch from freelancers to our Dedicated Development Team model.
Our engineers are ready to deliver from Day One.
Mentored directly by our founders, ensuring long-term stability.
No junior bench learning on your project. Every engineer is vetted for production-grade delivery before they touch your roadmap.
Questions from teams hiring AI developers
Most teams are live within days. Once we align on your stack and roadmap on the kickoff call, your senior AI engineer and the agent fleet start shipping in your repo the same week.
Marketplaces connect you to individual freelancers you still have to vet, manage, and coordinate. We assign one senior AI engineer who orchestrates a fleet of AI agents, so you get the output of a dedicated AI development team without the sourcing, interviewing, or day-to-day management.
Yes. Your engineer works exclusively on your roadmap, backed by a fleet of agents handling scaffolding, testing, and deployment in parallel. It functions as a dedicated AI development team, run by one accountable engineer instead of a rotating bench.
One engineer plus a coordinated fleet of AI agents can cover the ground a 5-person team used to: feature work, QA, deployment, and monitoring running in parallel instead of in sequence. The engineer directs the fleet and owns the output.
Product features end to end, internal tools, workflow automations, GTM pipelines, and agentic systems wired into your existing stack through MCP connectors. See the roles above for the exact skill sets we deploy.
Walid and Adel, ex-IBM engineers who built AY Automate after running production-grade automation and AI agent systems for enterprise clients. They oversee every engagement directly, not through account managers.
No. Your senior AI engineer directs the fleet. You get status updates and shipped work, not a queue of agents to configure.
Pricing depends on scope and the number of engineers you need. Book a kickoff call and we will scope your roadmap and quote a plan before any work starts.
This is the flagship offer: choose 1 to 5 engineers across three role types (Forward Deployed Engineer, GTM Engineer, AI Automation Architect) and we assemble the team. Engineer Placement is the deep dive on the staffing process itself, timeline, and the 90-day replacement guarantee. Forward Deployed Engineers is the deep dive on that specific embedded-engineer role. If you already know you want one embedded engineer, start on whichever of those two matches your need; if you want a multi-role team or are not sure which role fits, start here.
Most "AI developers for hire" searches lead to a marketplace of individual freelancers you still have to vet, interview, and manage yourself. We're the alternative: one senior AI engineer, backed by a fleet of AI agents, hired the same way you'd hire a dedicated team member, not sourced from a freelancer pool.
Yes, if automation is the whole need rather than a broader embedded engineer, see our AI Automation Agency and Custom Automation pages, which cover n8n workflows and agent-driven automation directly. This flagship offer is the right starting point when you want an AI developer covering automation plus everything else on your roadmap, not automation alone.
