AI RAG Engineering
Transform your approach to AI-driven applications. Learn to build production-ready Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems that intelligently combine large language models with contextual knowledge. Through hands-on course, you'll earn critical knowledge and develop a functional Chatbot.
What you will learn in this course
WHY THIS COURSE IS A GAMECHANGER: Most engineers treat RAG as a black box – they may understand the theory but struggle to architect, optimize, and deploy RAG systems that work reliably in production. This course transforms RAG from abstract concepts into tangible, deployable skills. You'll build a complete chatbot system from scratch, understanding every component of the RAG pipeline.
ABOUT THIS COURSE: Instead of abstract examples, you're building a Chatbot – a real RAG system that answers customer questions by retrieving and synthesizing information from actual website content. By the end of the course, you'll have a working prototype that you can deploy. You'll learn abbout data ingestion, embeddings & vector search, LLM integration, security & quality controls, and Docker deployment.
Agenda
RAG Fundamentals & Architecture: Understanding RAG systems, real-world use cases, and architecture overview including data pipeline, retrieval, and generation.
Data Foundation & Embeddings: Web scraping, document chunking, preprocessing, embedding models, vector databases, and building a queryable vector store.
Advanced Retrieval: Hybrid search combining vector similarity and keyword search, reranking, Top-K optimization, and benchmarking retrieval performance.
LLM Integration & Chat Backend: Choosing LLMs, prompt engineering, building FastAPI application with chat endpoints, streaming responses, and session management.
Security & Production Readiness: Input validation, prompt injection defense, guardrails, rate limiting, logging, and monitoring generation quality.
Deployment: Containerization, multi-container setup with docker-compose, deployment scripts, and production checklist.
audience
This course is designed for
- Software Engineers wanting to understand RAG systems
- DevOps Professionals deploying AI systems
- AI/ML Practitioners building production applications
- Anyone interested in AI development
prerequisites
To get most out of this course, you should have:
- Basic Python knowledge (familiar with functions, classes, libraries)
- Understanding of APIs (REST, HTTP basics)
- Comfortable using AI tools (Copilot or similar)
style
Our trainers have years of experience and will deliver the right mix of:
- Interactive lectures: Concepts explained with real examples, demonstrations, Q&A sessions
- Hands-on labs: Progressive labs building toward the complete system with guided exercises
Technical requirements
We recommend the following equipment:
- Stable internet connection
- Access to AI tools and services (e.g., OpenRouter, Groq, OpenAI API) (Free accounts may need to be created)
- Browser compatible with modern web applications (e.g., Chrome)
- If you're eager to try out demonstrated tools on your own: Code editor (e.g., VS Code) with sufficient hardware (GPU) and a Python installation



Need more than training?
Training is often a first step. Many teams realize they need support beyond the course to make things work in production, speed up the process or bridge short-term bottlenecks..
We can support you beyond training, through hands-on consulting, project collaboration, or as an embedded enablement team, we are helping you apply what you learned, validate decisions, and move forward with confidence.
