Hi, I'm Igor Bobriakov.

Fractional AI Architect & Strategic Advisor.

I provide the strategic oversight and architectural guardrails your team needs to build robust, production-ready AI systems - faster and with less risk. Stop navigating the complex and fast-moving AI landscape alone.

How I Deliver Value

🎯 ROI-Driven Roadmaps

Aligning AI strategy directly with your business goals to ensure maximum impact and return on investment.

🚀 A Force Multiplier for Your Team

Mentoring your team on AI best practices to accelerate development and build lasting internal expertise.

🏛️ Architecture Built to Last

Designing production-ready AI systems that are scalable, secure, and cost-effective from day one.

🔎 Clarity in Complexity

Providing expert technical due diligence for vendor selection, hiring, and high-stakes strategic decisions.

Is This Your Situation?

• Are we choosing the right architecture for our new AI initiative?
• Can we move our RAG prototype to production successfully?
• How can we accelerate our AI roadmap to stay competitive?
• Are we making the right trade-offs (RAG vs. Fine-Tuning, LangGraph vs. CrewAI)?

A single architectural misstep can cost months of development time. I am your insurance against that risk.

About Me

I am a Principal AI Architect and the founder of ActiveWizards. I specialize in designing the end-to-end systems that power the autonomous enterprise.

My work exists at the intersection of two worlds: the deep, abstract principles of systems thinking and the pragmatic, messy reality of building software.

As a Principal Architect and the founder of ActiveWizards, I've spent years in the trenches designing the end-to-end systems that power the autonomous enterprise. This practical experience grounds my work in the hard realities of production code.

As a Conceptual Synthesizer, I use tools from physics and philosophy to map the future of technology and business. This is the world of my writing, where I forge the first-principles knowledge needed to navigate complexity.
