I help ecommerce and DTC teams run smoother customer operations by building scalable systems, standardizing processes, and keeping support teams accountable to measurable outcomes. Most recently I was CS Operations Manager for a US-based ecommerce operation running 20+ consumer gadget brands on a shared Zendesk Enterprise instance. I owned Zendesk configuration, macro standardization, SLA monitoring, agent performance and QA, omnichannel routing, knowledge base and AI agent setup, and workflow automation across CS and ops. Before that, two years at Amazon processing 500-1,000 investigation cases weekly under strict SLA and accuracy standards, plus an Operations Manager role at an AI content brand where I built workflows, SOPs, ManyChat automations, and social listening systems. What I can help you with: - Zendesk setup: macros, triggers, views, SLA config, omnichannel routing - SOP creation and documentation (Notion, Google Docs) - Agent performance tracking and QA systems - Workflow and email automation (Google Apps Script, Zapier, Klaviyo) - Knowledge base and AI agent setup - CRM cleanup, data QA, reporting dashboards - Process documentation and clean handoffs Typical deliverables: Zendesk audit reports, macro libraries, SOP docs, agent performance dashboards, workflow maps, automation scripts, cleaned data sheets with change logs. How I work: - Clarify scope and success criteria first - Accuracy-first with QA notes and change logs - Structured documentation and clean handoffs - Reliable async communication in remote teams

I bring 13 years of enterprise IT and systems administration to AI automation โ€” which means the workflows I build don't just work in demos. They hold up in production. I design and implement AI-powered automation systems using n8n, Make, Claude API, OpenAI, and GoHighLevel that replace manual, repetitive processes with reliable, error-handled workflows. My background in server administration and cloud infrastructure means I think about edge cases, failure recovery, and scalability from day one โ€” not as an afterthought. โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” ๐—ช๐—›๐—”๐—ง ๐—œ ๐—•๐—จ๐—œ๐—Ÿ๐—— โœ“ AI content & document generation pipelines (OpenAI / Claude / Airtable / n8n / Make) โœ“ Lead intake, qualification + CRM automation (GoHighLevel, HubSpot) โœ“ RAG-based AI agents and custom knowledge base systems โœ“ Amazon SP-API automation โ€” inventory, orders, settlements, FBA Inbound โœ“ API integrations with webhooks, JSON parsing, custom JavaScript โœ“ Automated communication systems (email, Slack, notifications) โœ“ Operations dashboards for real-time visibility and decision-making โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” ๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—–๐—˜๐—ก๐—ง ๐—ช๐—ข๐—ฅ๐—ž โ†’ AI Brand Book Generator (Make + Airtable + OpenAI) โ€” structured JSON outputs with automated recovery for every failure mode (malformed output, API timeout, partial completion) โ†’ Multi-Agent IT Troubleshooting Copilot (n8n + OpenAI) โ€” router + diagnostic + resolution agents handling complex cases that single-agent flows couldn't reach โ†’ Amazon SP-API automation layer for a US FBA reseller โ€” 9 SP-API endpoints integrated, 1,269 SKUs in daily inventory sync, 245-day historical order backfill, 40+ n8n workflows running in production โ†’ Lead matching system with strict validation โ€” Slack + Airtable integrated, eliminated silent drop-offs from the qualification pipeline โ†’ Multi-step CRM and sales process automations with status tracking and error notifications โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” ๐—ช๐—›๐—ฌ ๐—–๐—Ÿ๐—œ๐—˜๐—ก๐—ง๐—ฆ ๐—–๐—›๐—ข๐—ข๐—ฆ๐—˜ ๐— ๐—˜ Most automation specialists connect apps.
