Vendor-Neutral AI Forward Deployed Engineering — Fractional FDE Services
Vendor-Neutral AI
Forward Deployed Engineering.
Don't get locked into a single AI vendor. We embed within your team to build flexible, custom agentic workflows that let you choose the best models for the job.
The AI Industry Has a
Lock-In Problem.
// Andrew Ng on the FDE career path and agentic workflows
Big Tech FDEs Lock You In
- Locked into a single provider's proprietary model ecosystem
- Skyrocketing switching costs as your codebase deepens
- No flexibility to adopt better, cheaper models as they emerge
Vendor-Neutral HarrisonAIx FDE
- Architectures designed to swap Claude, GPT, and Llama seamlessly
- Routing layers to swap models without code modifications
- Vague business goals translated into realistic agentic workflows
Three Pillars of
Vendor-Neutral AI Engineering.
Each engagement is built on these core capabilities — combined and customized to your unique requirements.
Custom Agentic Workflows & RAG
Specialized multi-agent systems tailored to proprietary data. We design workflows that think, reason, and execute tasks autonomously.
- ▸ Multi-agent orchestration systems
- ▸ RAG pipelines over proprietary data
- ▸ Autonomous tool-use architectures
Vendor-Agnostic Infrastructure
Routing layers and edge orchestration so you can swap between the best models (Claude, GPT, Llama) without rewriting your applications.
- ▸ Model routing via OpenRouter
- ▸ Cloudflare Workers edge orchestration
- ▸ Zero-downtime model swaps
Secure & Local Deployments
Deploy workloads securely on Linux environments, Proxmox virtualization clusters, and dedicated hardware for full data sovereignty.
- ▸ On-premise Linux server environments
- ▸ Proxmox virtualization clusters
- ▸ Full data sovereignty compliance
What It Looks Like to
Work With an FDE.
A structured, three-phase engagement that takes you from initial audit to production deployment — with full transparency at every step.
Workflow Audit
Discover & Prioritize
We deep-dive into your existing processes, data flows, and team structures. Every automation opportunity is mapped, scored for impact, and prioritized into a clear action plan — no generic playbooks.
Vendor-Neutral Architecture Design
Blueprint & Select
We design the technical architecture — model selection, routing layers, data pipelines, and infrastructure blueprints — all built for optionality. You'll never be locked into a single vendor's ecosystem.
Deployment & Tuning
Build & Optimize
We build, deploy, and integrate the solution into your operations. Post-launch, we monitor performance, fine-tune prompts and models, and iterate until the system delivers measurable ROI.
