About Me

Hey there! I'm Mikul Gohil, an AI Engineer with 18+ years of experience shipping production-grade software, based in Dubai, UAE

I design and build LLM-powered systems, agentic workflows, and AI-augmented engineering pipelines — turning fragile prototypes into reliable infrastructure. My work spans multi-agent orchestration, structured output validation, agent memory systems, and RAG pipelines built to hold up under real production conditions.

My foundation is deep enterprise web engineering — React.js, Next.js, TypeScript, and large-scale frontend architecture built at financial institutions and global agencies. That background is what gives my AI work production credibility: I understand systems constraints, compliance environments, and what it takes to deploy at scale — not just in demos.

I write about what I build — practical AI engineering, not theory. If you want to follow the work, the blog is the best place to start.
