We build software —
and the engineers who build it.
Mandola AI ships production Python, AI and RAG systems for companies — and trains absolute beginners into world-class engineers who contribute globally, on their own or alongside our team.
Work with us · B2B
Production software, shipped by the people who teach it.
We take on the work most teams stall on: broken legacy Python, backends that fall over under load, and AI features that need to actually ship. Fixed-scope engagements, or engineers embedded with your team.
01
Legacy rescue & remediation
Reproduce the failure, wrap it in regression-safe tests, and fix production Python without breaking what already works.
02
FastAPI backends & APIs
Concurrent, fault-tolerant services with strict Pydantic validation, rate limiting, retries and observability.
03
AI agents & RAG systems
Grounded retrieval over pgvector, tool-calling agents, and structured LLM output you can actually depend on.
04
Full-stack delivery
A real React UI on your backend, deployed live — streaming and realtime LLM interfaces included.
05
Security audits
OWASP Top 10, prompt-injection defense, secrets and dependency auditing — delivered as reviewable remediation PRs.
06
Embedded engineers
Bring on Guild-trained engineers as B2B-ready professionals — solo contractors or a squad embedded with us.

Why we teach a Python-first AI stack in 2026
FastAPI + Pydantic + pgvector is boring on purpose. Here's the shape of a career-ready AI stack that survives production.
From tutorial to paycheck: the 90-day rewire
The three feedback loops we use to turn beginners into billable engineers — proposals, portfolios, and pull requests.
RAG that actually ships: what changes past 10k docs
Chunking, hybrid search, eval harnesses. A quiet checklist for the moment your prototype meets real data.
FAQs
Your questions, answered.
Does Mandola AI build software, or only train? +
Both. We ship production Python, AI and RAG systems for companies as a software studio, and we train beginners into world-class engineers through our academy. The people who teach also deliver.
Do I need a CS degree to join the academy? +
No. We start from absolute beginner and take you to production-ready. Curiosity and steady hours matter more than a degree.
Can I work globally after the course? +
Yes — that's the whole point. Graduates contribute globally as independent B2B professionals, or alongside Mandola AI on real client briefs.
Is it live or recorded? +
Both. Weekly live cohort sessions with instructors, plus recordings and code reviews you can revisit at any time.
What will I walk away with? +
A shipped portfolio of real Python + AI projects, a freelance-ready profile, and access to Mandola's project execution network.
How is this different from bootcamps? +
Bootcamps hand you a certificate. Mandola hands you an income pathway — through real client briefs and warm introductions.
