The End-to-End AI Engineering Bootcamp is an 8-week, cohort-based experience designed to turn technical professionals into full-stack AI engineers who can confidently design, build, and deploy production-grade AI systems.🛠️ What You’ll BuildYou’ll develop your own capstone project - a real-world AI application built sprint by sprint, applying each week’s concept to solve a business-relevant use case. By the end, you’ll present it live on Demo Day, with a working repo and deployed app you can showcase to hiring managers, CTOs, or investors. 🧑‍💻Technologies include:<ul><li>LLM APIs (Gemini, Claude, GPT, etc.).</li><li>Vector databases &amp; RAG.</li><li>AI agent libraries (LangChain, LangGraph, ADK, AutoGen).</li><li>Docker, FastAPI, Kubernetes, cloud deployment.</li><li>Observability, evaluation, and performance testing.</li><li>Modern communication protocols (A2A, MCP).</li></ul>🧠 How It WorksEach week follows a real engineering sprint:<ul><li>Sprint Lesson (Monday): Self-paced learning with videos, cheatsheets &amp; reference code.</li><li>Sprint Review (Tuesday): Live walkthrough with Aurimas + deep Q&amp;A.</li><li>Sprint Build Lab (Thursday): Live coding session to implement key sprint features.</li><li>Bonus QnA and Feedback sessions.</li></ul>🎬 Pre-course that will help you prepare <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeId95Z-0iyOATuFuHt3zP5enX3eCOsoq&amp;si=1xrntQdNOUkXwH6H">here</a>.

LLMOps Mastery is a 6-week, cohort-based deep dive for engineers who have built LLM applications and need to make them production-grade. You will optimize, fine-tune, deploy, and operate real LLM systems.🛠️ What You'll OptimizeYou start with three pre-built AI systems and spend 6 weeks transforming them: adding eval gates, observability, fine-tuned models, optimized serving, and cost controls.🧑‍💻 Technologies include:<ul><li>Evaluation frameworks and LLM-as-judge pipelines</li><li>Observability and tracing</li><li>Automated prompt optimization</li><li>LLM gateways and model routing</li><li>Fine-tuning</li><li>Inference serving and quantization</li><li>GPU profiling and multi-model serving</li><li>CI/CD with eval gates</li></ul>🧠 How It WorksEach week covers 5 lessons with heavy hands-on:<ul><li>Live Sessions (2x/week, 90 min): Concepts, real-world trade-offs, Q&amp;A.</li><li>Written Content: Detailed technical writeups for reference.</li><li>Hands-On Labs (4-7 hrs/week): Deploy serving engines, fine-tune models, stress test under load, and profile GPUs.</li></ul>
