AN AI ENGINEER SPENT MONTHS BUILDING THE RAG STACK MOST PEOPLE TRY TO FAKE
She published one open source project that teaches you how to build a local RAG system from scratch, then followed it with a production-ready agentic architecture that mirrors how modern AI products are actually built
Instead of stopping at embeddings and vector search, the pipeline adds LangGraph agents, hybrid retrieval, Redis caching, observability, orchestration and local inference to create a system that can reason through complex retrieval tasks
Learning how to prompt an AI might get you started, but understanding how production RAG systems are engineered is what separates AI users from AI builders
