The AI Reliability System

Cohort-based Course

A step-by-step system for fixing and preventing AI hallucinations. Build the reliable, production-grade AI systems.

Course overview

From an AI Janitor to an AI Architect

This course transforms you from a reactive AI Janitor, constantly cleaning up the messes of an unpredictable model, into a proactive AI Architect.


You will go from the frustrating guesswork of debugging a black box to confidently implementing a systematic process for building trustworthy, production-grade AI. You'll stop being the person who 'fixes things' and become the go-to technical leader who architects reliable systems, leads mission-critical projects, and accelerates your career.


The official dates for this cohort will be finalized and announced exclusively to the Founding Members waitlist. The dates listed are for planning purposes only.

Who is this course for

01

For experienced Senior AI/ML & Software Engineers (5-10 yrs) building production AI.

02

You're tired of the frustrating 'black box' debugging. You're stuck firefighting and wasting days on manual verification.

03

Your goal is to become an AI Architect of trustworthy systems, lead high-impact projects, and earn a promotion to a Principal role.

Prerequisites

  • This is not a beginner's course. You should have professional experience building and deploying software systems in a language like Python.

  • Experience with machine learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn) and cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) is recommended.

  • You should be comfortable with software engineering fundamentals like version control (Git) and basic system design.

I'm not a theorist; I'm a practitioner who has been on-call at 3 AM for the exact failures this course teaches you to prevent.


I've built and debugged high-stakes systems at scale for companies like the MLOps platform at Qwak (acquired by JFrog for $230M) and the data platform at Fandom (350M+ users).


As a contributing author for O'Reilly and a speaker at international conferences like DevOpsDays and Berlin Buzzwords, my expertise is in turning unreliable AI into production-grade assets.


There are plenty of people who can explain machine learning theory. There are very few who have been on call at 3 AM because a production model they owned was failing silently. My entire career has been spent on the front lines of high-stakes, production AI.


I'm not teaching you concepts from a textbook; I'm giving you the battle-tested playbook I've built over a decade of solving these exact problems at scale. When you enroll, you get more than just content; you get access to a proven system built on years of real-world success.
