Yo โ Iโm Rhys (pronounced โReeceโ) ๐
I help businesses save hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars by replacing manual work with smart automation.
Iโm a technology architect specialising in AI and automation, with 10+ years of industry experience and Masterโs-level education. By day, I design and streamline large-scale systems for the Victorian Government. After hours, I bring the same enterprise-grade thinking to growing businesses on the Upwork platform.
I build end-to-end, user-centric automation systems using tools like Airtable, Stripe, Calendly, Softr, and automation platforms including Make, n8n, and Zapier โ so your systems run smoothly and your team can focus on scaling, not admin.
If youโre after an automation expert who doesnโt just build something that works, but builds systems that last, letโs chat. Whether itโs a one-off automation or long-term support, youโll get clean solutions, seamless implementation, and clear communication every step of the way.
Letโs build something great. ๐

I build AI automation, agentic workflows & full-stack AI apps for B2B, SaaS & eCommerce 30+ apps shipped.
I don't build prototypes. I build AI systems that run your business agents that sell, pipelines that process, and workflows that replace manual work permanently.

There's a specific kind of frustration that comes from hiring a developer, getting a working app, and then watching it quietly become a liability, hard to change, impossible to hand off, held together by logic nobody documented.
I fix that before it starts.
I build SaaS platforms, cross-platform apps, and automation systems for startups and lean teams that need things production-ready from day one. Clean architecture. Zero dead weight. Automation wired into the product โ not stapled on after the fact.
7 years. Dozens of products shipped. Every one of them is still running.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
โฆ THE WORK
โ SaaS Platforms that Scale Without Rewrites
Secure auth ยท RBAC ยท modular APIs ยท multi-tenant architecture ยท dashboards built for real operators, not just demo days.
โ MVPs That Actually Validate
Web MVPs scoped tight, built fast, and structured so the next version doesn't require starting over. Next js ยท React ยท Supabase ยท Firebase ยท MERN ยท Bubble.
โ Automation That Replaces Entire Job Functions
Not just "connect two apps." Full workflow architecture using n8n, Make dot com, Zapier, Airtable โ eliminating the manual work your team has quietly accepted as normal.
โ Systems That Donโt Break at Scale
Bubble ยท Webflow ยท Retool ยท Airtable ยท Supabase ยท n8n ยท Make dot com ยท Zapier
Designed with proper data modeling, backend logic, and error handling, so your system holds up beyond the MVP stage.
โ Internal Tools for Teams That Hate Bloated Software
Custom CRMs, admin panels, ops dashboards โ built using Retool, Supabase, or custom stacks based on complexity and scale.
โ Integrations That Just Work
Shopify ยท Webflow ยท Bubble ยท Slack ยท Circle ยท Klaviyo ยท Stripe ยท REST / GraphQL APIs
Connected. Tested. Documented. Built with retries, logging, and failure handling.
โ Event-Driven Systems
Triggers, alerts, webhook pipelines, queue-based processing, and real-time workflows โ automated end-to-end so nothing falls through the cracks at 2am.
โ Workflow Architecture & Process Engineering
Mapping business logic โ translating into automation pipelines โ connecting no-code tools with custom backend systems
Includes conditional logic, branching, scheduling, retries, and full observability.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
โฆ THREE THINGS THAT MAKE THIS DIFFERENT
โกArchitecture isn't an afterthought here.
Most MVPs are built to demo. Mine are built to survive โ a product pivot, a funding round, a new hire who needs to understand the codebase in a week.
โกAutomation is a design decision, not a feature request.
I look for what your team does manually and eliminate it during build โ not as a bolt-on after launch.
โกSmall teams deserve enterprise-grade thinking.
You don't need 20 engineers. You need systems designed so 3 people can run what used to take 10.

Hey, Iโm Ali from Australia ๐ฆ๐บ ๐ฆ
I build AI agents and run AI consulting workshops for 7-8 figure businesses.
โ Generated $16,902 MRR in 62 days for a SaaS (AI Agent Outbound system)
โ AI consulting & training for for Enterprise clients & US Government agencies (Claude + ChatGPT)
โ Saved $13,352/mo with automations & AI agents for $10M+ businesses
โ Worked with Netflix, Under Armour, and Vogue.
โ I teach at the #1 University in Australia (UNSW for 5+ years)
Here's what I do and how I can help you:
G'day mate! Iโm Ali. Over the years my clients have always chosen to come back to me due to my outcome oriented mindset, friendly vibe, aussie accent, teaching background, and great eye for detail. All I care about is solving your problem (and making sure it's the right problem to solve).
I work with companies doing $1M-$50M+ annually, assessing bottlenecks and helping them generate more revenue + automating. repetitive tasks.
I've created full courses on how to build these systems spanning from AI voice agents, AI personal assistants, lead gen systems, image/video gen pipelines, CRO, speed-to-lead, CRM automations etc.
I'm also a lecturer and teacher at UNSW (top 20 in the world) here in Sydney. I love breaking down complex topics into simple english. This plays a big role when communicating with my clients and providing walkthrough videos and SOPs after delivering a successful project.
My goal is to make you as much money as possible through acquiring high quality leads, book more sales calls, and optimize all your bottlenecks. I try to be as outcome oriented as possible, because at the end of the day, that's the #1 thing that matters to you (my client).
What I'm best at:
I build custom AI agent systems using Claude Code, Codex (ChatGPT), and advanced automation platforms (n8n, Make, Zapier). This includes:
- AI agents that get qualified leads, outreach, and follow-up (personalized at scale)
- Complex automations systems that plug into your CRM e.g. GHL, Monday, HubSpot, Salesforce
- Image & Video generation pipelines for high quality outputs with good design taste/style
- Workflows that save hours using n8n, Make, or Zapier with custom API/Webhook integrations
- Onboarding/Billing systems so that you/your clients can build longer lasting relationships
Shoot me a message or invitation and I'll send you a personalised loom on how I can help!
Cheers,
Ali
