Donavan Jones
Full-Stack Engineer & Systems Architect
I build production systems at the intersection of AI, backend engineering, and infrastructure. My work spans RAG pipelines, async job queues, self-hosted Kubernetes clusters, and full-stack SaaS platforms — always with a focus on correctness, observability, and production-readiness.
Currently deep in building Bible Verse AI — a multi-domain platform that indexes 37,000+ Bible verses with semantic search, five AI models, and a fully async processing pipeline.
By the Numbers
What I Build
Systems designed to run in production, not just demos.
AI Systems
RAG pipelines, LLM orchestration, agent frameworks, hybrid model routing, and production inference infrastructure.
Backend Engineering
Scalable APIs, async job queues, domain-driven service layers, and typed data pipelines in Node.js and FastAPI.
Infrastructure
Self-hosted Kubernetes on ARM64, CI/CD with GitHub Actions, MinIO object storage, and secure Cloudflare routing.
Full-Stack SaaS
End-to-end product development — from data model and auth to UI, real-time features, and payments.
Technology Stack
Notable Work
Projects and systems that defined my engineering approach.
Building Bible Verse AI
Full-stack AI platform indexing 37K+ Bible verses across 5 bounded domains with RAG retrieval, 5 AI models, and BullMQ job queues.
Self-Hosted Kubernetes Cluster
Designed and deployed a private ARM64 Kubernetes cluster running production AI workloads, CI/CD pipelines, and object storage.
Full-Stack Content Platform
Built this site from scratch — video tutorials, blog, pro membership, AI search, and real-time features on a Nuxt 3 stack.
Production SaaS & AI Integration
Shipped multiple client projects integrating LLMs, WebRTC video, Stripe billing, and complex auth flows into production systems.
