I build web scrapers that handle bot detection and scale. Also: FastAPI backends, Discord bots, and Python automation. I've built scrapers processing 10k+ records, various API integrations for startups, and automated data entry tasks saving clients money and manpower. Experience in fields like sports betting, finance, and medical. I handle rate limits, dynamically loaded content, and uniform data delivery. What do you need built?

Most traders have an edge. The problem is execution missed entries, emotional exits, bots that look good in backtests but bleed in live markets. I've spent years solving exactly that problem. I build trading bots and automation systems that execute your strategy 24/7 on crypto, forex, DeFi, and prediction markets, the way you designed it, without interference. Across 30+ projects and counting, the systems I've built have generated over $250,000+ in tracked profit for live accounts. Here's what most developers won't tell you: a perfectly written bot built on a flawed strategy will still lose money. Before I write a single line of code, I review your strategy logic entry rules, risk parameters, execution assumptions because catching a problem there saves you weeks and real capital. Most developers jump straight to coding. I don't. I also build for live market conditions, not just ideal ones. That means slippage modelling, latency handling, proper position sizing, and failsafes so your bot doesn't just pass a test, it survives real trading. What I deliver for clients: Crypto trading bots on Binance, Bybit, Coinbase, and Alpaca with AI/ML signal generation, real-time execution, and Telegram alert integration. Solana MEV bots, arbitrage systems, sniper bots, flashloan bots, and DeFi automation on Jupiter, Raydium, and Orca. MT4 and MT5 Expert Advisors for forex scalping, swing, grid, and prop firm challenge systems built for FTMO and MyForexFunds with full drawdown protection. Prediction market automation on Polymarket and Kalshi. Copy trading systems, wallet trackers, and market-making bots. Smart contract integrations and full deployment on AWS or VPS production-ready, not just delivered and forgotten. Clients come back and they refer others because the systems actually work in production. I don't disappear after delivery. Every project includes source code, documentation, and a handover so you understand exactly what's running on your account. For ongoing systems, I stay available for monitoring, updates, and scaling. If you have a strategy you want automated, a system that isn't performing the way it should, or an idea you want to turn into a working bot message me with what you're building. I'll tell you exactly how I'd approach it, what's realistic, and what it'll take to get it live. Let's build something that runs while you sleep.

I build AI systems that run on their own: autonomous agents and automation pipelines that do real work from end to end, not just demos. They pull in live data, make decisions with an LLM, take actions (send email, take payment, file documents, update records), and keep running unattended on a schedule, with the error-handling and safety to do that without someone watching. Here's what I bring that a lot of AI builders don't. I've worked in software and data for 23 years, most of it in enterprise delivery and data governance, including running a $400M government services contract. So I build for reliability, not novelty. Anything that has to be correct (money math, business rules) lives in plain, tested code, and the LLM advises only where judgment actually helps. Everything is idempotent, test-gated, and observable. A few recent builds: • An autonomous outbound system that finds prospects, sends compliant outreach, handles the replies, and takes payment through Stripe. The operator just reads a daily digest. (10/10 deliverability, ~83 automated tests.) • A business-process pipeline that turns an inbox full of documents into structured records and a live report, with zero manual data entry. • An AI document-generation engine that drafts proposals, RFP responses, and other business documents, with a human approving every send. • A real-time data and analytics platform over a 462,000-row dataset, validated with pre-registered statistical testing. The stack is mostly Python, with Claude and Grok doing the LLM work, kept deliberately small and boring: SQLite or Postgres, systemd, Google Workspace, Stripe, plus RAG and multi-agent orchestration where they earn their place. If you've got a workflow that's repetitive, data-heavy, or begging to be automated, tell me what it looks like. I'll tell you straight whether AI is the right tool and how I'd build it.

You have data that is messy, scattered, or stuck behind a site that does not want to give it up. I get it out, clean it, match and dedupe it, and hand it back as a spreadsheet, a database, or an API you can call. I am a Top Rated Python data engineer. Most of my work is public and live. The demos and the source are in the Portfolio section of this profile. What I do: - Scraping protected, anti-bot sites. This is the part I am known for. Sites behind Cloudflare, Incapsula, CAPTCHA walls, rate limits, and the usual bot-detection and WAF defenses. The tooling is Playwright with stealth, proxy rotation, and backoff and retry. Selenium when a page is JavaScript-heavy or login-walled, BeautifulSoup when the HTML is plain. Pagination handled, clean CSV or Excel out. One-time pull, or a scheduled job with change detection so you only see new or changed rows. - Cleaning, fuzzy matching, dedupe. Normalize, validate, then RapidFuzz multi-scorer matching to fold messy records from different sources into one clean dataset. This is the work clients keep coming back for. - Automation and pipelines. Scheduled jobs and ETL into PostgreSQL, Redis in front of it, data-quality and anomaly checks, FastAPI or Flask backends, Docker to deploy. Scrape, clean, match, load, deliver. Hands off after the first run. - API integrations and small apps. FastAPI plus React, third-party APIs (payments, translation, news and RSS feeds), JWT auth, webhook handling. The Portfolio section has the live ones. A data-quality and anomaly-detection framework I put in front of a pipeline load. A Dockerized FastAPI and React credit-risk system behind a JWT-auth API. A news-sentiment pipeline that ingests, cleans, analyzes and serves, live. A card-authorization API. More than that, each with a running URL and its source on my linked GitHub. The reviews on this profile say it better than I can. Clients hire me for scraping, automation and data work, and they come back. What comes up again and again: clear communication, work that arrives clean and works, and not needing to be chased. Read them in their own words. How I work: tight scope, plain language. Before you hire I will tell you how I would build it, where the real risk is (is the site JavaScript-rendered, is it behind a login, what bot detection does it run, how much data), and what you get for the money. If a site is genuinely not worth scraping I will say so upfront instead of burning your budget proving it. For scraping and pipeline jobs I can usually send a small sample first, a few rows or a profiling pass, so you see the actual output before you commit a cent. Stack: Python 3.10+, Playwright, Selenium, BeautifulSoup, RapidFuzz, pandas, FastAPI, Flask, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker, React, TypeScript, scikit-learn, REST APIs, scheduled jobs and ETL. AWS Certified Data Engineer Associate and AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner. Send me the source (the site, the file, the API, or the messy dataset) and what you want out of it. I will come back with how I would build it, a fixed price, and a timeline. If it is a scrape or a cleaning job I can send a sample of the real output first, so you can judge it before you hire.

Previously, we created and shipped Nyria's Trade Bot - which you can find details on in my projects below. At PeakBot, we're building a vast suite of trading bots built for easy use by the masses. I have made strong strides in developing PeakBot's trading infrastructure to be reliable for their users and customer support team alike. Using my strength in building business automations, I have additionally contributed an array systems for increasing PeakBot's internal productivity and the efficiency, for both the development and CS team.

I have bountiful amounts of experience in everything mentioned above, leading to consistently quicker turnaround times at a consistently higher quality. Additionally, multiple years of experience in trading different assets helps me get trading-based projects up and running quickly - crypto, futures, stocks, options, spreads - you name it, I've probably traded it. As I named my second brand which is currently inspiring and connecting with similar entrepreneurs, designers, developers and creatives alike, I'm Always Ascending.
