I'm a backend and cloud engineer with 4+ years of experience designing and shipping production systems that scale. My work spans high-throughput microservices, AI/LLM-powered platforms, and cloud-native infrastructure, all built to be reliable, efficient, and cost-effective. Most recently, I lead backend engineering at New Age, where I architect distributed APIs serving millions of requests per day. I've also built AI data pipelines for audio transcription and sentiment analysis, reducing processing latency by 40% using Celery, RabbitMQ, and Redis. My projects speak for themselves. I've shipped the backend for a Grammar AI app with 532,000+ users on the App Store, integrated OpenAI, Claude, and Gemini APIs for document processing, and deployed production APIs across GCP and Azure. I also built an OCR pipeline using Azure Computer Vision for a live currency converter app. I work confidently across the full backend stack, from RAG pipelines and vector embeddings to PostgreSQL schema design, Docker/Kubernetes deployments, and Terraform-managed cloud infrastructure on AWS, GCP, and Azure. Let's build something scalable. Drop me a message and I'll respond within a few hours.

TOP-RATED PLUS | 99% Job Success | 41+ Projects | 7+ Years Experience 🚀 Senior Software Engineer | Low-Code & No-Code Architect | Systems Integration Factotum | DevOps Python | OpenClaw | Odoo | n8n | Make | Zapier | Power Automate | Airtable | Low-Code | No-Code I am a versatile Software Engineer and Integration Factotum who specializes in connecting bespoke software ecosystems, engineering custom data pipelines, and bridging the gap between completely isolated business applications using a hybrid mix of custom code, low-code, and no-code platforms. I build production systems that actually work in real business environments—not just setups that look good on paper. My work sits at the intersection of backend engineering, DevOps cloud infrastructure, and low-code/no-code workflow automation. If your current software platforms do not communicate with each other, I build the custom middleware, API configurations, and automated data pipelines that bridge them seamlessly. I specialize in less-code and hybrid automation development—leveraging agile no-code visual builders for speed, while writing native Python and JavaScript code to bypass platform limitations. Whether you need to integrate a customized Odoo ERP environment, orchestrate autonomous OpenClaw multi-agent AI workflows, sync relational no-code hubs like Airtable, or connect disparate platforms via n8n, Make, Zapier, or Power Automate, I design the "glue" that makes your entire tech stack function as a unified system. 🔧 CORE AREAS OF EXPERTISE 1. Low-Code & No-Code Workflow Automation (n8n, Make, Zapier, Power Automate) Multi-Platform Orchestration: Designing and maintaining complex, fault-tolerant, low-code automation pipelines using n8n (self-hosted or cloud), Make (Integromat), and Zapier. Enterprise Windows Automation: Utilizing Microsoft Power Automate to connect legacy desktop applications, SharePoint, and Microsoft 365 environments with modern cloud platforms via low-code workflows. Hybrid "Less-Code" Systems: Writing custom Python and JavaScript scripts directly within n8n, Make, and Zapier workflows to bypass native no-code limitations, handle complex data loops, and bypass API rate limits. Rapid Prototyping: Deploying agile, maintenance-friendly no-code triggers and actions to automate manual business operations with minimal friction. 2. Relational No-Code Databases & E-Commerce Infrastructure (Airtable, Shopify, Ecwid) Airtable Database Architecture: Designing highly optimized relational schemas, advanced formulas, low-code scripting blocks, and native no-code automations inside Airtable to act as an operational backend or single source of truth. E-Commerce Pipeline Engineering: Syncing digital storefronts like Shopify and Ecwid with central inventory systems, tracking orders, managing customers, and automating downstream fulfillment. Unified Commerce Data Flows: Linking Shopify and Ecwid APIs to low-code tools like Airtable, HubSpot, Zoho, and Odoo via n8n and Make to eliminate manual data entry. 3. Bespoke Software, API Architecture & CRM Integration Custom Integration Frameworks: Connecting proprietary, legacy, or niche business applications that completely lack native, out-of-the-box low-code or no-code integrations. CRM Architecture & Syncing: Advanced API configuration, data mapping, and automated workflow development inside enterprise CRMs like HubSpot and Zoho. Cross-Platform Synchronization: Building bi-directional, real-time data syncs between HubSpot, Zoho, Odoo ERP, and external custom backends using webhooks, APIs, and low-code web controllers. 4. Enterprise Odoo ERP Customization & Core Development Full Odoo Deployments: Comprehensive Odoo ERP setups across Sales, Inventory, Purchase, CRM, Accounting, and Manufacturing. Custom Odoo Modules: Advanced Odoo development creating tailored Python models, XML views, and proprietary business logic when no-code features aren't enough. Odoo Integration Pipelines: Direct API connection linking Odoo to Airtable, Shopify, Ecwid, HubSpot, and Zoho using native endpoints, custom middleware, low-code n8n logic, or Zapier. 5. AI, LLM Integration & OpenClaw Agentic Frameworks Agentic AI Ecosystems: Building production-grade multi-agent AI networks and autonomous decision-making loops using OpenClaw. OpenClaw & Low-Code Hybridization: Integrating OpenClaw AI agents directly into low-code/no-code automation platforms like n8n, Make, and Zapier for intelligent document classification, data extraction, and routing. Contextual AI Pipelines: Feeding data from Airtable, HubSpot, Zoho, and Odoo directly into OpenClaw-driven RAG systems to build highly customized, domain-specific AI assistants. 6. Transactional & Marketing Email Automation (SendGrid, Mailchimp) Email Infrastructure Management: Setting up, configuring, and scaling SendGrid and Mailchimp APIs for reliable transactional and marketing delivery. Event-Driven Journeys: Building triggers (e.g., Shopify abandoned cart, Hu
