Hi! I'm Paul, Founder of RuggedX, an AI-first company based in Atlanta and the builder and Instructor at CoursesX.
At RuggedX, I've built scalable, API-centric platforms spanning Trading Algorithms , Personal intelligence systems, agentic Orchestration , and generative content engines . My work integrates AI, ML, LLMs, and real-time data with cloud-native DevOps pipelines.
Additionally, I'm a Technical Account Manager at Google with a focus on AI & ML and a reasonable caffeine appreciation. Beyond building, I share practical AI insights on Instagram, YouTube, and Medium.
This intensive, hands-on course empowers developers to build and deploy intelligent, production-ready applications powered by Large Language Models (LLMs). Moving beyond theoretical concepts, you'll learn to design AI-first applications using the robust Laravel PHP framework, rapidly prototype with Firebase Studio, and leverage Google Cloud Platform (GCP) for scalable infrastructure and deployment.
