I build automated test systems, embedded prototypes, and internal tools. Day job: RF test engineering at Tait Communications. Automated test rigs, firmware validation, internal SQL-backed tooling, and one award-winning RF tuning algorithm using polynomial correlations (Tait 2025 Most Outstanding Product or Solution Development Award). After hours I ship founder-built AI and automation projects: a multi-channel AI receptionist platform (Twilio + Deepgram + OpenAI + Cloud Run), a 225-tool MCP agent server, browser automation pipelines, and ESP32 hardware spikes. National NZDE student project award for an ESP32 Bluetooth safe build. Best fits for me: . Automated test rigs and bench-test tooling (Python, C#, hardware-in-loop) . ESP32 / STM32 firmware spikes (BEng Electronics, NZDE national award) . Internal tools for engineering and operations workflows (desktop or web, SQL-backed) . Browser automation and applied AI tooling for repetitive workflows . Voice AI prototypes when the spike is short and the stack is named (Twilio + Deepgram + LLM) I move fast on tightly-scoped builds. One-day spikes available. Larger work capped to clean weekly milestones with code handoff at each step.

Hey, I’m Sid 👋 I build MVP SaaS products, data extraction systems and automation tools for solo founders and small teams. I focus on building production-ready systems with clean, scalable architecture and practical delivery so they can be used reliably and scaled without major rewrites. What I can help with: • Full-Stack SaaS and MVP Development: I build SaaS apps, dashboards, and internal tools from scratch. This includes frontend, backend, authentication, databases, and core product logic needed for a complete working system. • AI Integration and Automation tools: I integrate AI RAG/LLM features into web apps using APIs like OpenAI, Claude, and Gemini. This includes chat features, workflow automation using n8n/zapier, and AI powered functionality inside products. • APIs and Backend Systems: I design and build backend systems and APIs that are structured properly from the start so they can scale as the product grows. •Data Extraction and Automation: I have worked on multiple Upwork projects involving web scraping, data extraction using Playwright, Scrapy, and FastAPI, as well as automation pipelines. My experience includes structured data extraction from complex websites, PDF processing, and workflow automation systems. I apply this expertise when building data-driven products. Background: Before freelancing, I worked in systems and data engineering roles dealing with APIs, production systems, and large scale data workflows. That’s where I learned to build with structure first and also use AI as a practical tool to move faster and improve what I build. Best for founders who want to: • launch SaaS MVPs quickly with solid architecture • Turning slow page-builder sites into fast, modern web experiences. • turn early ideas into production-ready applications • add AI features into existing products • automate workflows or data-heavy processes • Migrate websites from wordpress,shopify to django, react stack • fix or rebuild unfinished prototypes into working systems If you’re building something and need it shipped properly, happy to talk. TLDR: You handle the idea, I handle the technical side end to end. All of it.

I am a senior engineer with a decade of experience in mechanical engineering, mechanical design, and automation. I have an MEng in Mechanical Engineering, a PhD in materials engineering and I am a TUV registered functional safety engineer. I am also an IPENZ Chartered Engineer. My particular interests are safety integrated systems and automation of processes and production machinery. I am an expert in programming Siemens PLCs (S7-300 and S7-1200) and the full range of Siemens HMIs. I routinely use TIA V15 and Step 7 5.5 (classic). I have recently completed several SCADA projects using Inductive Automation Ignition v8.0. I have a great deal of experience in field bus protocols such as Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, Profinet and Ethernet I/P. I have also installed many systems which log data from industrial equipment to mySQL and MSSQL databases. I have designed, installed and commissioned bespoke machinery ranging from Hydrogen production, to metal cutting, chemical processes and HVAC. I have experience of working on projects in North America, United Kingdom, New Zealand and Germany. I look forward to working with new clients.

Top Rated AI automation engineer. 5 stars on every closed job. I build production-grade automation in n8n, Claude API, custom MCP servers, and Apify. Most n8n freelancers on here bolt error handling and security on at the end. I build it in from the start, so your automation doesn't break the first time something unexpected happens. What I usually build: - n8n workflows connecting whatever APIs you need, with proper error handling and retry logic - AI agents using OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google models, chained together in n8n with structured outputs - Notion, Airtable, Google Sheets, and CRM API integrations into your existing stack - Apify actors and browser automation for scraping and data pipelines - Python scripts and REST endpoints that run scheduled jobs or extend n8n - Postgres schema work, SQL queries, and database integration - OAuth 2.0 flows, API key handling, and proper secrets management - Custom MCP servers and agent scaffolding for teams using Claude Code How I work: Build engagements are scoped projects with a fixed deliverable and full handover documentation. Retainer is my preferred model if you have an ongoing pipeline of automation work — new flows, maintenance, iteration. If you're not sure what to automate first, I can run an audit: map your manual processes, identify the highest-ROI targets, and give you a prioritized build list before any code is written. I'm a good fit if you have a manual process eating 5+ hours a week, you're figuring out where AI actually fits in your workflow, or you want a long-term engineer who learns your stack and owns the automation layer. How a project usually starts: you message me with the problem, I send a fixed-price or retainer quote within 24 hours, weekly demos during the build, full handover docs at the end.

Hi I’m Corey 👋 - Built an Azure DI system reducing processing time from 13 hours p/w to 1.5, saving ~$12500 annual in labour costs. - Collaborated with technology leaders including Microsoft, HP, Lenovo, 🍎, and more! - My team has also increased quarterly sales by 43% for NZ’s 2nd largest recycling company.
