Hello, my name is

Nalyk Calmîș

CTO & AI Systems Architect from Moldova

I build AI-agent systems, MCP servers, automation infrastructure, and production platforms for people who need things to actually work.

My work lives between architecture and operational reality: LLM tooling, gov-tech, procurement data, SEO automation, Linux servers, and the kind of legacy systems that make optimism file a complaint.

What I build

production infrastructure

I build AI-agent systems, MCP servers, automation infrastructure, and the production machinery that keeps "AI magic" from turning into an incident report with a timestamp.

I design infrastructure where LLMs are not treated as divine oracles, but as useful, dangerous, and slightly overconfident junior coworkers with tool access. My current work sits at the intersection of:

  • AI-agent systems and MCP ecosystems
  • Gov-tech and public-procurement data
  • Search, analytics, and SEO automation
  • Open-source infrastructure
  • Production web platforms
  • Developer tooling for people who actually ship

"AI-powered" is not an architecture. It is a warning label unless proven otherwise.

Deterministic checks are law. LLM judgment is counsel. Humans are sovereign.

how to work with me

I take a small number of senior engagements per year — architecture reviews, AI-agent and MCP infrastructure builds, gov-tech and procurement-data systems, and the kind of production work where correctness is not a decorative feature. No rate card. No "available right now." Write to me, tell me what you are trying to ship, and we will figure out whether it makes sense.
