Derrick Pedranti

Hi, I’m Derrick Pedranti — a Senior Full-Stack & AI Systems Engineer and Cloud Architect based in Irvine, California. I design and build scalable, production-grade AI platforms, cloud-native applications, and distributed microservices using AWS, Python (FastAPI), React, and modern LLM technologies.

My work focuses on generative AI, RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, and real-time data systems, helping organizations deliver intelligent, high-performance applications at scale.

I'm passionate about clean architecture, SOLID principles, and building reliable systems end-to-end — from design and development to deployment, observability, and optimization.

I also created AI & Your Future — a free resource at derrickjpedranti.org helping students and professionals understand how AI is reshaping the future of work.
