AURAZ ACADEMY

Learn the engineering behind the work

A working studio teaches what it actually uses. These are the systems, the failures and the fixes — recorded by the engineer who ships them, not a presenter reading a script.

Where to start

A short route into a long channel

You do not need to watch in order. Pick the door that matches what you are doing this week.

  1. 01

    Watch

    Find the constraint that matches yours

    Every episode starts from a real limit: a budget, a latency target, a system that had to keep running. Start with the one that sounds like your week.

  2. 02

    Build

    Take the shape into your own repository

    The point is the decision, not the demo. Pause the episode and rebuild the smallest version in your own codebase.

  3. 03

    Check

    Find out what actually stuck

    The AI Fluency check is a short self-check, marked in your browser. Use the result to decide what is worth rewatching.

  4. 04

    Ask

    Bring the part the episode missed

    If your case does not fit the recording, ask. A direct question is more useful than a fifth video on the same subject.

A self-check, stated plainly

  • Your answers are marked by your own browser, right now, on this device. Nothing is uploaded.
  • Your name, the time you started and your score are emailed to AURAZ TECH so we know who took the exam and can check a certificate later. There is no account, no sign-in and no database, and nothing else about you is kept.
  • This is not an accredited qualification, certificate or course completion. It is a self-check tool, and nothing else.

Instructor

Taught by the engineer who builds it

27 published episodes. Every one of them recorded by the same person who delivers the client work.

Everything on @aurazacademy is recorded by him, not narrated by someone else.

    Abdur Razzak Jiwani

    AI Engineer

    Instructor — AI engineering, system design and the tooling behind it

    Abdur founded AURAZ TECH and runs it end to end. He designs the systems that get built, decides what is genuinely worth automating rather than what merely sounds impressive, and is accountable for whether the thing works after it ships. He works across the full stack of applied AI: retrieval systems, voice agents, workflow automation, and the unglamorous integration work that decides whether any of it survives contact with a real business. His bias is toward systems that a team can maintain without him. He also teaches everything published on AURAZ ACADEMY, so the same engineer who writes the code explains how it works.

Why learn here

A teaching channel that behaves like a studio

Most AI content is produced for reach. This is produced because we had to work something out.

  • Built, not curated

    Every episode comes from something we had to build and keep working. Not a summary of documentation.

  • Failures included

    The parts that broke, and what we changed as a result. That is the part you cannot get elsewhere.

  • No email gate

    No newsletter required. No sequence. The videos are free and freely available.

  • Practitioner pace

    Engineers teaching, not a content pipeline. Episodes appear when there is something worth saying.
