Forward-deployed AI engineering training in Pune
Pune teams in manufacturing, automotive and IT services often have a clear operational problem and a capable engineering group. The training teaches that group the full path from discovery to a running system, with each stage assessed against a written standard. Participants leave with a working system, recorded decisions and an assessment of their own judgement.
I am Mayur Patil, based in Nashik, India. I run the public cohort and team programmes, and I am in Pune often for engagements.
Who takes the training in Pune
The training suits engineers who will build agents for operations, service and engineering workflows, and the leads who must decide whether a team can ship one. The training suits teams in manufacturing, automotive and IT services.
What the programme builds
Participants build one realistic system across the programme. Discovery sets the outcome, the owner and the evidence. Architecture records the decisions. Integration connects the system to real records and tests it. Handover gives a named owner a runbook and the decisions behind the system.
The four gates describe how each stage is assessed, and the evaluation harness term describes how the work is measured.
Example scenarios
These are examples, labelled as such:
- A dealer-service agent that drafts replies from a parts catalogue for a service advisor to approve.
- A maintenance-records agent that summarises service history and flags missing entries.
- A supplier-document checker that matches invoices and certificates against a checklist.
Two ways in
- The public cohort is the route for individual engineers: live online, in a weekday track or a weekend track. Dates and enrolment are on AIXL Academy.
- A team programme is for one team building on its own systems. We begin with a conversation about the work, and you can send an enquiry to start.
What a participant leaves with
Every participant produces a discovery brief, an architecture decision record, a working build, an evaluation report and a handover note. In an operations team, the handover note names the person who will approve the agent's actions.
Hours
Pune is on India time. Team programmes run in the team's working hours. Overlap with a parent in another time zone is agreed per project.

Common questions
Who takes the training in Pune?
Engineers and engineering leads in manufacturing, automotive and IT services teams who will build and run AI systems in their own operations.
Can a Pune team run a programme on its own tools and data?
Yes. A team programme is built on the team's tools, use cases and data, and it ends with a working system the team owns and an assessment of each person's demonstrated skills.
What is the public cohort format?
Live online, in a weekday track or a weekend track. Dates and timings are on the AIXL Academy page.
Which time zone is the training run in?
The public cohort runs in India time, which is the same as Pune. Team programmes are scheduled in the team's own hours.
