AI Engineer · GenAI & Agentic AI
A career-focused, code-first program: build strong Python, FastAPI and LLM engineering foundations, then build production agents with the Claude Agent SDK, OpenAI Agents SDK and LangGraph — wired to tools through MCP, grounded with RAG, and shipped with evals, guardrails and observability.
What is the AI Engineer (GenAI & Agentic AI) program?
An AI engineer builds software on top of frontier models — agents that reason, call tools, retrieve knowledge and act — and makes it reliable, safe and affordable in production. Most AI courses end at a chatbot demo. This program ends only when you have shipped a multi-agent system with MCP tools, RAG grounding, an eval harness with regression tests, guardrails, tracing and a cost budget — deployed behind an API and used by real people.
- •Python, typing, async & testing
- •SQL, data handling & Pydantic
- •FastAPI services, Docker & deployment
- •How LLMs work — tokens, context, cost
- •Prompting, structured outputs & tool calling
- •RAG, embeddings & context engineering
- •Agents with Claude Agent SDK, OpenAI Agents SDK & LangGraph
- •MCP servers, clients & agent skills
- •Eval harnesses, datasets & LLM-as-judge
- •Guardrails, red-teaming & safety
- •Tracing, observability & cost control
- •CI/CD, deployment & coding-agent workflows
Models became agents. AI engineering became a discipline.
What this means for your career: AI engineer roles now ask for agent frameworks, MCP, RAG and evals alongside Python and APIs — the differentiator is a deployed agent system with an eval harness, tracing and a cost story, not a notebook of prompts.
Built for people moving into AI engineering.
Prior experience: none required — Python is taught from scratch. The program builds programming and API foundations before LLM engineering, agents and production delivery.
Build the agent — and ship it to production.
Twelve sections. 57 modules. Python → LLMs → RAG → Agents → MCP → Evals → Ship.

Capstone, Portfolio & Career
32+ GenAI & agentic tools, one production project.
You don't watch videos. You ship software.
Three full-production projects, each threaded through the entire curriculum. By the project, you've built the whole stack around them.
Production agentic system on LangGraph + MCP + A2A
Build an end-to-end multi-agent platform — supervisor + specialist nodes coordinating over A2A, an MCP server fleet exposing your agents as tools, a hybrid RAG layer, and a full eval + safety harness.
Multi-agent A2A workshop
Build a 5-agent system that negotiates work via the A2A protocol — a supervisor, a researcher, a coder, a reviewer, and a deployer. Each agent runs as its own service with auth, telemetry, and replay.
DSPy-optimized RAG service
Build a self-tuning RAG service that uses DSPy to automatically optimize prompts and retrieval strategy against a golden dataset, with Arize-tracked drift monitoring.
Your AI agent system in a controlled project environment.
Pick a real partner workflow. Deploy a production GenAI + agentic system — multi-agent topology, MCP-served tools, A2A coordination, production evals — into a partner team that's running it for real users.
Taught by engineers who shipped agentic AI to production.
Manikanta is the founder of Edify Nuva and brings 15 years of platform architecture from AT&T, Salesforce, Cox Communications, and Broadcom — where he led production ML and GenAI rollouts for Fortune-500 banks, telcos, and insurers. Most recently he architected production LangGraph + MCP + A2A systems that replaced traditional case-handling tiers with autonomous multi-agent flows, with full eval and observability harnesses behind them.
His classes get you two things other programs don't give you: a founding architect who's shipped agentic AI from inside the Fortune 500, and a curriculum rewritten every quarter — so when hiring managers ask about MCP server fleets, A2A negotiation, DSPy optimization, or LangSmith eval suites, you've already built it. Holds LangChain Academy badges and the AWS Solutions Architect — ML Specialty; M.S. in Engineering, Purdue University.
Ravi is Chief Technologist at Edify Nuva, where he leads the Agent Platform and evaluation practice. After 8 years shipping production ML and DevOps pipelines, he stepped into the Chief Technologist seat to wire LangGraph, MCP fleets, and A2A into the way real engineering teams actually run agents — replay-able state, golden-dataset evals, drift monitoring, and cost guardrails that keep multi-agent systems quiet on purpose.
His agent and eval modules are built from real production post-mortems, not slide decks. Expect to leave with working MCP servers, an A2A-coordinated multi-agent topology, a DSPy-optimized RAG service, and an Arize + LangSmith observability stack you can stake an SLA on. Holds the Pragmatic AI Engineer track credential and Azure AI Engineer Associate; ten years at Edify Nuva, hands-on, and known for the unglamorous parts of agentic AI that everyone else skips.

Roles this program prepares you for.
What employers should see in your portfolio: that you can take an idea to a production agent — Python and FastAPI service, RAG grounding, agents built on the Claude Agent SDK or LangGraph with MCP tools, an eval harness with regression tests, guardrails and tracing, deployed with a cost budget and used by real people.
Your first AI Engineer offer isn't a lottery ticket. It's a built process.
