Hi, I'm Jeremy 👋 I build the systems that let founders & agencies scale without hiring more staff. → Scaled an agency to $30k/mo using automation. I know the exact bottlenecks you're facing. → Saved $60k per annum in costs by building an automated voice agent for a health clinic → Scaled to $14k/month in 3 months by bootstrapping a Real Estate Media business Most businesses I speak with are people dependent as in they are spending way too much time on tasks that often don’t make them any money. When I come into a business my aim is to break down what you do, find the bottlenecks, then see where we can get the best wins. I’ve run both digital marketing agencies and media companies. It was during building these companies that I learnt how to remove myself from repetitive tasks and tasks I hated doing. Would love to chat.

I build automated test systems, embedded prototypes, and internal tools. Day job: RF test engineering at Tait Communications. Automated test rigs, firmware validation, internal SQL-backed tooling, and one award-winning RF tuning algorithm using polynomial correlations (Tait 2025 Most Outstanding Product or Solution Development Award). After hours I ship founder-built AI and automation projects: a multi-channel AI receptionist platform (Twilio + Deepgram + OpenAI + Cloud Run), a 225-tool MCP agent server, browser automation pipelines, and ESP32 hardware spikes. National NZDE student project award for an ESP32 Bluetooth safe build. Best fits for me: . Automated test rigs and bench-test tooling (Python, C#, hardware-in-loop) . ESP32 / STM32 firmware spikes (BEng Electronics, NZDE national award) . Internal tools for engineering and operations workflows (desktop or web, SQL-backed) . Browser automation and applied AI tooling for repetitive workflows . Voice AI prototypes when the spike is short and the stack is named (Twilio + Deepgram + LLM) I move fast on tightly-scoped builds. One-day spikes available. Larger work capped to clean weekly milestones with code handoff at each step.
