Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAaron Lumsden is an AI agent implementation specialist and creator with 18+ years of software development experience, bridging traditional Laravel/PHP stacks with modern multi-model LLM systems in production. He leads the open-source Vizra ADK project, which has garnered significant community adoption and enables enterprise-grade agent tooling, multi-provider LLM support, and built-in evaluation capabilities. Aaron has delivered customer-facing AI agents at scale (notably for Aviva), designed automated deployment and monitoring pipelines, and pioneered LLM-as-a-judge evaluation frameworks for production quality assurance. Comfortable across backend, frontend and DevOps, he pairs hands-on Laravel, PHP and Python expertise with vector databases, RAG systems and observability tooling to make AI systems reliable in real-world settings. Based in Leeds, he is available for part-time contracts and brings a pragmatic focus on traceability, debugging and measurable AI performance that’s often missing from prototype-stage projects.
