Personal AI Engineering Academy

AI Engineering Learning

Learn production AI engineering by building.

This is a self-paced technical course following an AI data and MLOps delivery path, with explanations, system diagrams, worked examples, labs, quizzes, interview prompts, and evidence gates that grow into a portfolio capstone.

Reliable batch work

Kubernetes Jobs documents completion, retries, backoff limits, parallel work, and failure policy. Design tasks to tolerate reruns; do not assume a controller guarantees exactly-once execution.

Orchestration and observability

Databricks Lakeflow Jobs covers task dependencies, triggers, run history, notifications, and workflow monitoring. Prefect retries is a practical companion for bounded retry policies.

Responsible evaluation

NIST AI RMF and its AI Resource Center provide voluntary guidance for governing, mapping, measuring, and managing AI risk. Apply it to the synthetic health-AI capstone; do not use real patient data.
