As an AI Automation Engineer, I help B2B teams scale by building high-performance n8n and Make systems that handle your repetitive work 24/7.
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐: Most companies are drowning in "manual silos"โcopy-pasting data between HubSpot, Notion, and Slack. Without a professional AI Automation Engineer, your n8n workflows and Make scenarios are either non-existent or constantly breaking, costing you thousands in lost productivity.
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐: I architect "Intelligent Brains" for your business. As an AI Automation Engineer, I design complex n8n systems and robust Make scenarios that drive measurable ROI. My role as an AI Automation Engineer is to ensure your n8n and Make ecosystem is bulletproof. I prioritize proper scoping, fast delivery, and AI automation that actually moves the needle.
๐๐๐๐๐๐: Clients who hire me as their AI Automation Engineer see immediate impact:
๐ Saved 20+ hours/week through automated lead triage in n8n.
โก 80% reduction in CRM admin using advanced Make integrations.
๐ 40% increase in qualified leads via AI automation inside n8n and Make.
๐ ๏ธ Zero silent breaks: Every n8n and Make scenario includes pro monitoring.
โ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐:
- Workflows: n8n, Make (Integromat), Zapier

๐ง ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐?
- n8n Power User: I build n8n flows for high-volume B2B data handling.

You don't need "more leads." You need predictable pipeline and a system that turns cold prospects into booked meetings at scale.
I build outbound revenue engines for B2B SaaS companies. Clay workflows, Apollo enrichment, cold email infrastructure, cold calling frameworks, n8n and Make automation, and CRM architecture โ all connected into one system that generates qualified pipeline on autopilot.
7 years in B2B outbound. 10,000+ qualified leads per month. 20 to 30 percent cold email reply rates. 8 to 15 percent meeting booking rates. 25 percent lift in lead-to-opportunity conversion. 30 percent quarterly revenue growth.
No recycled templates. No scraped garbage lists. I build revenue infrastructure.
What I build:
Advanced Clay systems โ waterfall enrichment, ICP scoring with firmographic and technographic filters, buying signal integration, automated list generation, data validation, dynamic segmentation. Most freelancers use Clay. I architect it.
Apollo prospecting at scale โ deep ICP targeting, intent signal filtering, custom persona builds, verified email sourcing, list QA and deliverability prep. Only conversion-ready prospects.
Cold email infrastructure โ domain strategy, inbox warm-up, SPF DKIM DMARC alignment, sequence architecture across problem-led, trigger-led, and authority-led angles, A/B testing, reply-rate optimization, bounce reduction. Tools include Smartlead, Instantly, Lemlist, Mailshake.
Cold calling systems โ scripts engineered around ICP psychology, objection handling, voicemail strategy, dialer optimization, qualification frameworks. High-ticket deals require multi-channel pressure.
n8n and Make automation โ enrichment pipelines, CRM auto-sync, Slack alerts, auto-routing, reporting dashboards. Zapier to n8n migrations cut costs 60 to 80 percent. SDR admin reduced 40 percent plus. Your team closes. The system feeds them.
CRM architecture โ HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho, Pipedrive. Pipeline structuring, lead scoring, automated deal creation, revenue attribution, SDR to AE handoff. Built around pipeline math, not vanity metrics.
LinkedIn outbound โ Sales Navigator deep filtering, connection campaigns, InMail sequences, multi-channel sync with email and calling.
Why me:
I build machines, not lists. You get a repeatable outbound engine, not a CSV dump.
Multilingual outbound nobody else offers. English across US, UK, Europe. French targeting France, Belgium, Quebec, francophone Africa. Native Arabic for MENA expansion including UAE, Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Egypt. Plus Romanian and German.
Deep automation. Clay plus Apollo plus n8n plus Make plus HubSpot integrated into one revenue system. Everything built around cost per opportunity, conversion rates, sales velocity, and ROI. If it does not move pipeline, it does not get built.
Who I work with:
B2B SaaS startups needing outbound without hiring SDRs. Teams that bought Clay or Apollo but cannot leverage them. Companies expanding into French or Arabic markets. Founders wanting done-for-you outbound covering ICP, data, sequences, automation, meetings. Agencies needing white-label outbound infrastructure.
What you get:
Clear ICP. Clean enriched data. Multi-channel outreach system. Automated CRM flow. Real reporting. Meetings booked consistently. A system you own.
Send your ICP, target geography, and current setup. I will show you exactly where pipeline is leaking and how to fix it.
No fluff. Just pipeline.

Hi, I'm Dragos ๐
I build AI infrastructure that takes repetitive work off people's plates and hands them their time back.
โ Built an AI-native hiring system that triaged 9,000+ applicants with a 2-person HR team, saving an estimated $140k+ in labor.
โ Automated SEO systems for agencies, cutting 40+ hours of manual work every single week.
โ Built full-stack payroll tracking for remote sales teams, saving ~10 hours biwekly.
View my portfolio below to see exactly how these were built. Excited to talk!
โโโ
The longer, sit-down version:
I use AI in everything I build, but I won't use it to write this.
Happy to meet you! Most of my clients work with me for two reasons: an almost obsessive attention to detail, and a knack for taking a messy, complex business process and turning it into clear, actionable steps.
I had the good fortune to cut my teeth at an SDR startup during its hyper scale phase, where I was routinely building and optimizing complex internal systems under real pressure. The one I'm proudest of is that AI-native hiring system. It let a team of just two HR reps triage over 9,000 applicants without drowning. (I break down how it actually worked, along with a few others, in my portfolio if you're curious.)
Outside of that, I've worked across a range of industries, including:
โ SEO agencies
โ Amazon FBA brands
โ Events companies
โ Online course companies
โ Other service-based businesses
When we work together on Upwork, you don't just get a system that drops into your business. You get one you actually understand. I'll walk you through the core pieces so you can keep getting value out of it long after the project ends.
I build these systems because I genuinely love the process. And because I love it, I've gotten good at it, which means real value for you, ideally inside a long-term partnership where both of us come out ahead.
I'm looking forward to building something that makes a real difference to your business, and maybe to the thing that matters most: your calendar.
Cheers,
Dragos
P.S. If you work in a niche or subject area I didn't list above, reach out anyway. I enjoy diving into new spaces and getting up to speed fast. Happy to be flexible, as long as it's an investment that makes sense for both of us.

I build automation systems that let your tools talk to each other, so your team stops doing work that software should be doing.
For one branding agency, I automated client reporting and core delivery workflows across GHL, Wrike, Teams, and Claude. The leadership team got back 15+ hours a week. The delivery team got back 40+. For another agency, I rebuilt their ClickUp into the operating system the team actually used, with the automation layer to back it up.
My focus is agencies and service businesses running on a stack of disconnected tools (ClickUp, Wrike, Asana, Slack, GHL, HubSpot, Notion, Airtable, the usual list). I build the integrations and AI workflows that make those tools function as one system, with n8n usually at the core.
Engagements typically look like a scoped build (a workflow automation, a ClickUp implementation, a reporting infrastructure layer), a monthly retainer where I handle ongoing automation and improvements, or a short audit and roadmap if you want a clearer picture before committing.
Background: 16+ years running operations for remote teams. I run Task Engine, a consulting practice focused on operations automation for service businesses.
If your team is hitting a ceiling because of manual work, send me a message describing what's breaking and I'll tell you whether I can help.

๐ Fractional CMO & Revenue Architect | 20+ Years | 1,000+ Projects | AI Growth Systems
I help B2B companies, founders and B2B brands turn fragmented marketing into a clear, accountable growth and revenue system. With 20+ years of experience and 1,000+ completed projects, I work as a Fractional CMO, Growth Strategist and Marketing Architectโnot as a task-based freelancer. I connect positioning, customer insight, GTM strategy, qualified pipeline, conversion, automation and implementation so marketing supports real business growth.
As a Top Rated Plus freelancer on Upwork, I combine senior strategic judgment with practical implementation. I diagnose the business, define priorities, build the roadmap, coordinate specialists and vendors, implement systems, and report what is working, what is not, and next actions.
What I Help Leadership Teams Solve
- Unclear positioning, ICP or messaging
- Inconsistent qualified pipeline
- Marketing activity without revenue accountability
- Founder-dependent sales and fragmented marketing
- Agencies or specialists without a senior strategic layer
- Weak funnels, CRM processes, attribution or reporting
- Product launches, market entry and growth transitions
My Fractional CMO Framework
I use a practical Revenue Architecture approach:
1. Market Truth - ICP, buyer insight, category, competitors and pain
2. Positioning & Message - value proposition, differentiation, proof and sales narrative
3. Pipeline System - acquisition, funnel, CRM, qualification, nurture and handoff
4. Operating Accountability - people, vendors, budget, KPIs, cadence and 30/60/90 roadmap
The goal is not more random tactics. It is a marketing operating system that gives leadership clarity, qualified opportunities and confidence.
Core Strategic Capabilities
๐ GTM & Growth Strategy - Market and competitor analysis, ICP definition, journeys, offer strategy, launches, market entry, roadmaps and 30/60/90 priorities.
๐ฏ Positioning, Branding & Messaging - Brand strategy, differentiation, value propositions, website messaging, sales narratives, content direction and founder/CEO thought leadership.
๐ Demand Generation & Performance - Funnel strategy, CRO, landing pages, A/B testing, SEO, content strategy, paid media planning, channel prioritization, campaign optimization and ROAS improvement.
๐ SEO, Paid Media, Websites & UX - Technical SEO, keyword/content strategy, organic and local search, Google/Facebook/Instagram/LinkedIn/TikTok campaigns, targeting, tracking, website strategy, landing pages, funnels and conversion improvement.
AI Workflows & AI Automation
I design and implement practical AI systems that improve marketing speed and decision quality:
- AI-assisted research, ICP analysis and audience insights
- Content, SEO and messaging workflows with human review
- Lead enrichment, scoring, routing, qualification, nurture and follow-up automation
- CRM workflows, dashboards, attribution and executive reporting
- AI agents for research, reporting, customer support and internal operations
- Automated campaign analysis, anomaly detection and summaries
- No-code and low-code integrations across CRM, forms, email, analytics and project tools
- Agentic workflows connecting data, decisions and actions across the journey
I do not recommend AI as a gimmick. I identify the bottleneck first, then design a maintainable workflow that creates measurable leverage.
Selected Results & Capabilities
- Doubled organic traffic for multiple clients through SEO methodology
- Transformed an accounting firm's digital presence and client acquisition
Client Feedback
โCiprian is highly skilled across many platforms and a great marketing strategist. Great at explaining everything and keeping you well informed about the process and outcome.โ โ Audit/Launch Plan Client
How I Work
Deep Discovery - Understand the business, market, customer, goals and constraints.
Strategic Diagnosis - Identify the real bottleneck rather than treating symptoms.
Roadmap - Define priorities, owners, budget, KPIs and the next 30/60/90 days.
Implementation - Build, coordinate or improve the required systems and workflows.
Optimization - Learn from performance data and continuously improve.
Executive Reporting - Make decisions, risks and next actions clear.
Tools & Technologies
Google Analytics 4, Search Console, SEMrush, Ahrefs, CRM/automation platforms, advertising platforms, AI platforms, no-code/low-code systems and custom reporting.
My Background
Before freelancing, I worked as a Project Manager and Team Leader at WebNation Digital, leading teams and delivering marketing campaigns. I am a Certified Digital Marketing Strategist (CDMS), a Top Rated Plus Upwork freelancer, and a hands-on strategic partner for companies needing senior marketing leadership.
If you need someone to own the thinking, connect strategy to implementation, and build a more accountable growth system, I can help build that system. AI-first now.
