Overview

What custom software means for this market

The AI talent market is flooded with candidates who know the theory but have never shipped a production system. Foundrex connects you with AI developers who have built and deployed LLM applications, RAG systems, ML pipelines, and agentic workflows in real enterprise environments — with references and portfolios to prove it.

Services

What we build

LLM Application Developers

Engineers who have built and shipped production LLM applications — prompt engineering, RAG, fine-tuning, cost optimisation, and monitoring.

ML Engineers

Engineers who build, train, and deploy machine learning models with production MLOps experience across the full model lifecycle.

AI Full-Stack Developers

Full-stack engineers who can build AI-powered features into your product — from the model API to the user interface.

RAG & Search Specialists

Engineers specialising in retrieval systems, vector databases, embedding pipelines, and knowledge base AI.

Why Foundrex

Built different, for a reason

Production experience only

Every AI developer in our pool has shipped real systems to real users. We verify this with portfolio review and technical assessment before they join our network.

48-hour matching

We present matched profiles within 48 hours of receiving your requirements. No weeks of recruiter back-and-forth.

No placement fees

Traditional recruiters charge 15–25% of first-year salary. Our model has no upfront placement fee.

Guaranteed fit or replacement

If the engineer is not the right fit within the first 30 days, we find a replacement at no additional cost.

FAQs

What people ask us

A data scientist focuses on analysis, experimentation, and model research. An AI developer focuses on building production systems — APIs, pipelines, integrations, and deployment infrastructure. Most production AI projects need both, but they are distinct skill sets.

LLM application developers, ML engineers, RAG specialists, computer vision engineers, NLP engineers, and full-stack engineers with AI integration experience.

Yes, from 20 hours per week minimum. Many clients start part-time during evaluation phases then move to full-time as scope grows.
