Engineer.Currently making AI useful.


I'm Edward Budiman, an AI and automation engineer based in Sydney. I build RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, and the integrations that move them from prototype to production.

Hi, I'm the assistant on Ed's site, a bit like the person at his front desk who knows his projects and background. Ask me what he's built, how he thinks about a stack choice, or what he's been up to lately. Happy to help, and a little small talk is fine too.

// bio

I started out in data analytics and kept moving upstream until I was building the systems themselves. These days I work on AI and automation in a consulting setting: RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, and the integrations that make them production-ready. Half the job is engineering, half is talking to people, translating between what stakeholders need and what the tech can actually do. That means working with technical and non-technical teams, internal and external, across whatever timezone the project lives in. I care a lot about why architectural decisions get made, not just what gets built. Sydney-based, but the work travels.

// off the clock

Reads a lot. Coffee. Music. Pulled in by psychology and philosophy. Badminton when the courts are free.


Got a problem worth solving?

No form, no funnel. If you're building something interesting, or stuck on something, just write directly.

Email is the fastest. LinkedIn works too. Tell me what you're working on, what's broken, or what you're trying to figure out. I read everything.
