The Intikhab Times, a newspaper front page about Intikhab Azam, AI/ML engineer, researcher and systems architect. Lead story: Microsoft quietly edits a Teams page and fairfax catches it the same day; the gov-cloud checker re-reads 33 Microsoft sources every week and keeps a Wayback copy of each. Also: blueprint-runtime reproduces 71 of 79 real Make.com runs, pgvector-cpu-check finds 3 build bugs in 13 Postgres images, Open Jev loses on accuracy and wins on calibration, agentic RAG costs 2.5 times more per correct answer.

Intikhab Azam · AI/ML Engineer, Researcher & Systems Architect

Voice AI agents · RAG and LLM evaluation · multi-tenant SaaS · agentic coding · open-source developer tools

I build AI systems that have to work in production: voice agents that answer real phone calls, RAG and LLM agents judged by cost per correct answer, and multi-tenant SaaS platforms with row-level security and field-level encryption. I also publish the research behind them, including the numbers that went against me, and open-source tools that catch problems before they ship: Microsoft gov-cloud gaps, broken Make.com scenarios, Postgres images that crash on older CPUs and packages an AI coding agent made up. Based in Pakistan, working with US teams, open to contract work. Portfolio, with client case studies and every project: intikhab49.github.io.

What I build

Services directory: AI voice agents (Vapi, Twilio, CRMs, payments, SMS), RAG and LLM agents, LLM evals and research, multi-tenant SaaS architecture (Postgres RLS, BFF auth, encryption), agentic coding (Claude Code, Codex, DeepSeek), automation and data pipelines (n8n, Cloudflare Workers), developer tools and CI checks (PyPI, npm, GitHub Actions, MCP).

  • AI voice agents: Vapi and Twilio receptionists and outbound callers, wired into CRMs, payments and SMS
  • RAG and LLM agents: knowledge-base chatbots with tool calling and memory, evaluated by cost per correct answer
  • LLM evals and research: calibration, benchmarks and backtests that report the losing numbers too
  • Multi-tenant SaaS architecture: Postgres row-level security, BFF auth, field-level encryption, event-driven jobs
  • Agentic coding: Claude Code, Codex and DeepSeek working in parallel behind spec files, a claims board and test gates
  • Automation and data pipelines: n8n, Cloudflare Workers, lead generation, scraping and enrichment
  • Developer tools and CI checks: CLIs, GitHub Actions and MCP servers on PyPI and npm, for Microsoft gov clouds (GCC High, Azure Government), Make.com, Postgres images and AI-written code

System architecture

I design systems end to end, from the data model to the deploy pipeline. Patterns I use in production:

  • Multi-tenant SaaS: shared schema with tenant keys, Postgres row-level security and cross-tenant tests in CI
  • BFF authentication: httpOnly cookie sessions with token refresh owned in one place
  • Field-level encryption for sensitive personal data, with key rotation and idempotent backfills
  • Event-driven pipelines: webhooks, job queues, retries and idempotency keys
  • Edge compute: Cloudflare Workers for payment links, SMS and API glue between voice agents and Stripe
  • LLM routing: small models first, frontier models only when needed, prompt caching to cut token spend
  • Delivery: Docker, Kubernetes + NGINX, Prometheus, and end-to-end tests that run against real data, not just mocks

Work with me

I take on contract and freelance work. Client case studies are on my portfolio, intikhab49.github.io:

  • AI voice agents: receptionists, outbound callers, call-to-CRM and payment flows on Vapi and Twilio
  • RAG chatbots and LLM agents: knowledge bases, tool calling, memory and evaluation
  • LLM cost and quality: benchmarks, calibration, prompt caching and model routing
  • System architecture: multi-tenant SaaS design, auth and data security, scaling and cost reviews
  • Agentic coding setups: Claude Code skills, MCP servers and CI gates for AI-written code
  • Automation: n8n workflows, lead generation, scraping, CRM and payment integrations
  • Microsoft gov cloud: GCC, GCC High and Azure Government feature, endpoint and sign-in checks before you build
  • Make.com and no-code QA: regression tests for Make scenarios that run offline and in CI

Advertisement: available for contract work. Voice AI agents, RAG and LLM evals, multi-tenant SaaS, automation and developer tools. Message @AzamIntikhab on X. Based in Pakistan, working with US teams.
