⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Nicolas was quick & helpful and got the job done.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Great work and very professional!” I help businesses automate the Google Sheets workflows their teams still update manually. If your team is copying data between tabs, checking records by hand, building reports manually, or moving data between Google Sheets and other tools, I can help turn that into a reliable automated workflow. What I build: ✅ Google Sheets automation with Apps Script ✅ API integrations into and out of Google Sheets ✅ Automated reports, dashboards, alerts, and internal tools ✅ Data cleanup, matching, validation, and record-checking workflows ✅ PDF, email, invoice, quote, or document generation from Google Sheets data ✅ Fixes and improvements for existing Google Sheets automations Common examples: - Pull platform/API data into Google Sheets - Sync CRM, booking, ticketing, property, legal, or operations data with Sheets - Move data between tabs, files, or departments automatically - Replace manual weekly/monthly reporting workflows - Flag missing records, inconsistencies, or errors - Build internal Google Sheets tools your team can actually use I’m a good fit if your business already relies on Google Sheets and the manual work around it is becoming slow, messy, or error-prone.

APPLESCRIPT API AUTOMATION/WORKFLOW DEVELOPER: No more repetitive tasks, clicks, or keystrokes! Your problem becomes my problem. We’ll figure out how to save you valuable time. Automate FFMPEG, Google (Calendar, Gmail, etc), Knack (database), and so many other free/opensource command-line apps for Mac (no Windows) I have a long background in video/audio/sound editing/mixing (see below) but my primary purpose here on Upwork is automating workflows with apps like Applescript, Automator, FFMPEG, Keyboard Maestro,, & Perl. These scripting/scriptable tools create shortcuts to perform functions/macros that run behind the scenes. My comfort level exists mostly in Mac OS but I have been in every version of Windows since Win3.1 and have done some work with AutoIt (AppleScript for Windows). I have designed several iOS apps currently available in the Apple App Store and have 2 fantasy sports games on the web. Another interesting project was developing automated Twitter "Tweets". I am always looking to do manual tasks more quickly. Recent Upwork projects have been AppleScripts to extract Google Calendar schedules into Knack database using their APIs, convert .STL files to .PNG, emailing Image files, creating folders from .CSV, retrieving AliExpress data, retrieving parcel info from GIS Data Viewers, doing OCR on image files, & creating custom printouts called from MacBook Pro touch bar. I also created a way to extract data from a Wordpress site (woo commerce) using their API and could create a custom PDF for printing. All of which will be huge time savers for the clients.

Hello! 👋 I'm an adept automation specialist 🤖 specializing in crafting efficient bots and data scraping projects 🕵️‍♂️. With a proven track record, I excel at creating automation solutions that deliver results with precision and speed ⚡.

I run a computer consulting firm in the Dallas area -- Element26 (element26.net). My specialty is taking niche projects that require extensive thought and complexity and crafting a simple, efficient, and elegant solution. I'm incredibly organized and detail-oriented. I have an extensive background in scripting and applets (PHP, Perl, Python, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, NodeJS, AppleScript, Bash, VBA macros), website development, API integration (Sendgrid, Twilio, Mandrill, Google Apps, Stripe, PayPal), CMS (WordPress), software development, project management, system administration, server maintenance, and more than 20 years experience.

I am a member of Upwork Pro and Expert-Vetted, Upwork's highest-tier elite talent pool representing the top 1% of Upwork.

My primary skill is web and desktop automation. Over the last 15 years, I have developed a wide range of applications using Python, PHP, C#, Google Apps Script, different APIs, frameworks, Zapier, Make etc. Most of my work is done using Python but I can work with Perl, C#, PHP, VBA, VB.NET too. Also I have worked a lot with Zapier and some of my workflows / zaps are really complex: including dozens of steps and different APIs / app. I have created several hundreds of web scrapers, spiders and different parsers (CSV, XML, XSLT, JSON, text logs etc). I can work with different database engines (MySQL, Postgres, MS SQL Server etc) and other output formats (CSV, Excel, XML, JSON). Usually my work starts with a simple (and free) demo version which my client can evaluate. My rates are not the cheapest but my code is really good and I'm always prioritize code quality over cost, resulting in robust and maintainable solutions.
