I help e-commerce and SaaS brands keep operations running smoothly and customers happy, so the day to day runs with minimal oversight from you. My focus is e-commerce operations and customer support: Shopify fulfillment, order and inventory management, supplier coordination, and fast, empathetic support across email, live chat, and phone. I also build tools and automations that make the whole operation faster. I am a Top Rated Plus freelancer with a 95 percent job success score and more than 13,700 hours on Upwork. On e-commerce, I handle the full cycle: building stores, creating product catalogues, and producing clean listings at scale. I built a bulk uploader that publishes thousands of accurate listings across Shopify, eBay, Amazon and Walmart, and a dashboard that tracks inventory, order fulfillment and sales in one view. For support, I provide pre sales and post sales help over live chat and email using Zendesk, Gorgias and similar tools, for global customers across the US, Europe, Asia and Australia. On the operations and logistics side, I have owned supply chain and fulfillment for a consumer brand on Shopify, built UK and EU logistics operations from the ground up, and worked as a sourcing agent managing suppliers, factory vetting and cross border documentation. In US freight brokerage I built workflow automations for daily operations, including posting thousands of loads on DAT and automating carrier and customer communication. I am proactive, organized and reliable, comfortable watching COGS and margins, and used to working with minimal supervision. My goal is to handle support and operations so dependably that the business runs on autopilot. If you want a high standard partner for e-commerce operations and support, let's connect.
