I'm Arthur Rahimov — an AI solutions architect and full-stack engineer based in Sittard, Limburg. For 10+ years I've been designing and building the backend systems, APIs, AI agents, and automation infrastructure that power real businesses.
My approach is hands-on: I don't just deliver code, I deliver outcomes. Every system I build is designed for scalability, maintainability, and measurable business impact — from AI pipelines and chat agents to microservice architectures that stand up to real traffic.
I'm currently CTO at HorecaHub.ai and Agyn.ai — hands-on technical leadership in AI SaaS startups. I also offer fractional technical leadership for teams that need architecture, delivery, and AI systems without a full-time hire. When you work with me, you get a technical partner who speaks both code and business.
From AI-powered SaaS platforms to high-traffic marketplaces — systems I've architected, built, and scaled.

What an AI developer costs in the Netherlands in 2026: freelance hourly bands, project ranges, fractional CTO retainers, and why the sticker rate is not the bill you actually pay.
Hiring an AI developer in Limburg is not nostalgia for an office. For Dutch SMEs, local delivery cuts coordination cost, legal friction, and project risk versus a cheap remote team.
This week I made a small donation to Hulphond Nederland — an organization that trains and places assistance dogs for people with visual impairments and…
Straight answers on cost, scope, and why a local AI developer in Limburg is often the lower-risk hire.
An AI developer in Sittard typically charges €75–150 per hour as a freelancer, or €8,000–25,000 per project depending on complexity. Fractional CTO services start at €2,500 per month. Local developers often offer better value than remote teams due to lower coordination overhead and faster iteration cycles.
An AI fullstack developer can build custom AI agents (chatbots, automation pipelines), LLM integrations using OpenAI or Claude, RAG-based knowledge systems, web applications in React and NestJS, API integrations, and complete software architecture — often reducing repetitive operational work and speeding up delivery.
A basic AI agent with defined scope takes 2–4 weeks. A full multi-agent orchestration system with RAG pipelines and custom integrations takes 6–12 weeks. Timeline depends on complexity, number of integrations, and whether existing infrastructure can be leveraged.
Local developers in Limburg offer face-to-face availability, timezone alignment, faster iteration cycles, and understanding of Dutch business culture. Remote teams are often cheaper but introduce coordination overhead, communication delays, and higher project risk — especially for AI projects requiring close collaboration.
Yes. Arthur Rahimov works with startups, scale-ups, and SMEs across the Netherlands and Europe. He offers fractional CTO services for companies that need senior technical leadership without a full-time hire, as well as project-based development for defined AI and software projects.
