I design production-grade AI automation systems that replace manual workflows, connect fragmented tools, and drive real business outcomes. I’m not just building automations; I’m building end-to-end systems that handle lead flow, customer journeys, backend operations, and AI-driven decision-making. With deep expertise in n8n, Make, APIs, and AI systems, I help companies move from scattered tools to fully automated, scalable infrastructure. ⚡ What I Actually Do I architect and deploy automation systems that: - Capture, qualify, and nurture leads automatically - Connect CRMs, payment systems, and backend APIs - Run AI-powered workflows (GPT, agents, scoring, summarization) - Automate sales pipelines, booking systems, and follow-ups - Process data pipelines (ETL, enrichment, reporting) - Handle multi-client / multi-tenant automation setups 🧠 Real Systems I’ve Built AI Lead Qualification Engine (n8n + GPT + Airtable + Twilio) → Scores leads, triggers follow-ups, books meetings automatically Multi-source Intake System (Webhook + Voicemail + CSV) → Normalizes and routes leads into a unified pipeline AI Content & Ads Automation → Generates ad copy, creatives, and publishes via APIs Research Agent Workflow → Multi-step AI research with structured outputs Backend Automation (GHL → n8n → API systems) → Handles purchases, subscriptions, and provisioning logic 🛠️ Core Stack n8n (advanced workflows, error handling, scaling) Node.js / Make / Zapier OpenAI / AI APIs (GPT, agents, automation logic) REST APIs & Webhooks (custom integrations) Airtable / Google Sheets / CRMs (HubSpot, GHL, etc.) Twilio / SendGrid / WA integrations 🎯 What Makes Me Different Most freelancers automate tasks. I design systems that run your business processes end-to-end. - Built for reliability (error handling, retries, logging) - Designed for scale (multi-client, modular workflows) - Focused on business impact, not just tech 🚀 If You Need: - AI automation replacing manual operations - A robust n8n / Make / backend automated system (not a fragile one) - CRM + API integrations that actually work - A scalable backend automation architecture 👉 I’m the person you bring in. 🤝 Let’s Build Something That Runs Without You Tell me your workflow — I’ll turn it into an automated system.

With over 5 years of experience building scalable, intelligent systems for startups and early-stage companies, I specialize in automation, workflow orchestration, and full-stack development. My focus is on creating robust, maintainable, and efficient systems that connect data, services, and people. I build event-driven automations and data pipelines that connect APIs, databases, and services using n8n, Zapier, and Python. From internal workflow automation to complex multi-step integrations, I design systems that save time, reduce manual work, and improve reliability. My automation experience includes webhook handling, cron jobs, background workers, and event-based triggers across distributed systems. I also deliver modern, production-ready web platforms using Next.js, React, and NestJS or Express with clean architecture and modular design. I handle everything from frontend UI and UX to backend services, database optimization, and deployments. My systems are built with performance, security, and scalability in mind. I have extensive experience designing and deploying production-grade APIs with authentication, authorization, data filtering, file uploads, and OTP verification. My backends are designed for high availability and security, following modern development practices and clean architecture principles. I develop cross-platform mobile applications using React Native and Flutter. These apps support offline sync, local storage, and deep API integrations for seamless experiences across Android and iOS. On the infrastructure side, I am experienced in containerization, CI/CD pipelines, and automated deployments using Docker, Railway, and VPS setups. I integrate monitoring and logging tools like Grafana and Prometheus to ensure system stability and reliability. I am skilled in data modeling, schema design, indexing, and query optimization for both relational and NoSQL databases. My approach ensures that every system is built for performance and long-term scalability. Technical Stack includes n8n, Zapier, Node.js, Python, Next.js, React, NestJS, Express, Django, FastAPI, TypeScript, TailwindCSS, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, MySQL, Docker, GitHub Actions, Railway, Coolify, and MinIO. I can help you with workflow automation, API integrations, scalable web platforms, backend architecture, mobile app development, secure deployments, and consulting on reliable MVPs and production systems. If you are building something that needs to be automated, intelligent, and scalable, I can help you bring it to life quickly, securely, and efficiently. Let’s connect and start building.

I am a Senior QA Automation Engineer and Scripting Specialist with 6+ years of experience delivering high‑quality solutions across web, mobile, and backend systems. My expertise spans Python, Java, JavaScript, TypeScript, and C#, and I design scalable automation frameworks using Playwright, Selenium, Cypress, Appium, K6, Jenkins, and JUnit. Beyond traditional QA, I bring a diverse portfolio of projects, from Shopify storefronts and Shop.app flows to AI annotation, model training, and data pipelines. I excel at performance testing, CI/CD integration, and DevOps practices, ensuring automation is not only functional but also production‑ready. My work includes advanced data processing (Pandas, SQL, Excel/Google Sheets, JSON, OCR, image/PDF conversion) and AI‑assisted automation that accelerates testing and improves accuracy. I’ve led QA initiatives on complex platforms, collaborated on Tokola projects, and delivered freelance solutions that consistently earned top ratings. Whether it’s edge‑case mobile QA, biometric endpoint validation, or AI workflow automation, I combine technical depth with a proactive mindset to drive reliability, efficiency, and innovation.
