Agentic engineering · Nationwide, remote
AI that does the work, not just the talking.
Agentic engineering is building AI that takes real steps: it reads the email, looks up the price, drafts the quote, updates the order and leaves the final click to a person. I design and build these systems for businesses, and I build software every day alongside AI coding agents like Claude Code, so products ship faster without cutting corners.
Who it's for
- Businesses ready to move from a chatbot to AI that finishes tasks
- Teams buried in email, quotes and follow-ups that need judgment, not just rules
- Companies that want AI connected safely to their inbox, CRM, store or database
- Founders and teams who want to ship software faster with AI coding agents
What's included
- Agent design: the goal, the tools, the data it can see and where a person approves
- Tool-using agents that call your APIs, database and business rules
- Multi-agent workflows that split a job between planning, doing and reviewing
- MCP connectors that give AI assistants safe, scoped access to your systems
- Guardrails: permissions, approvals, logs, retries and cost limits
- Testing on real cases before an agent goes live
- Agent-assisted development: specs, code, tests and reviewed pull requests with Claude Code
Proof
Work that is live today.
TBSP.LA
The system behind a Los Angeles print shop: AI turns chats and emails into priced quotes, and background agents move every job forward with a person approving each send.
Conversational AICatch Lead

E-commerce · SEOThe Best Screen Printing
Website rebuild for a Los Angeles print shop: online ordering, a voice agent, and 2,662 old URLs migrated with search traffic intact.
How we work together
-
A short call
You tell me about the business, the goal and the deadline. I ask questions until the problem is clear.
-
A written plan
You get the scope, timeline and price in writing before any work starts.
-
Design and build
I design and build it myself, sharing progress as I go, so nothing is lost between idea and launch.
-
Launch and support
I launch it, check it in search and analytics, and stay on call for changes after.
Questions
About agentic engineering.
What is agentic engineering?
It is building AI systems that act, not just answer. An agent gets a goal, a set of tools such as your inbox, database or price list, and rules to follow, then plans and carries out the steps and checks its own results. The engineering is in the tools, the limits and the testing that make it reliable.
How is an AI agent different from a chatbot?
A chatbot replies. An agent does the task: it looks up a real price, writes the quote, books the slot and updates the record. Max on The Best Screen Printing site prices orders from the shop's live price engine instead of guessing.
Is it safe to let AI act in my business?
Yes, when it is built with limits. Each agent only gets the access its task needs, every action is logged, and anything that spends money or reaches a customer waits for a person. In TBSP.LA, AI drafts priced quotes from incoming emails, but nothing goes out until someone presses Send.
What is MCP?
The Model Context Protocol is an open standard that lets AI assistants such as Claude connect to tools and data in a consistent way. I connect assistants to business systems through MCP, so they can read and act with the same permissions a person on your team would have.
Do you build software with AI coding agents?
Yes, every day. I plan the work and review every change, while coding agents like Claude Code write and test code in parallel, open pull requests and fix what review finds. This website and the TBSP.LA platform were built this way.
Where should a business start with AI agents?
With one task that eats hours every week and has a clear right answer, like turning quote requests into priced drafts. We build an agent for that, measure it, and grow from there.
