You will get reliable AI agent & intelligent workflow automation system.
Project details
Most people on this platform connect tools. I build systems that don't fall over.
I'm a senior software engineer with around eight years in distributed systems and cloud-native architecture, and I bring that engineering discipline e.g. error handling, retries, idempotency, monitoring to AI automation, where most builders stop at a working demo. That's the difference between something that impresses in a sales call and something you can actually run your business on.
I've worked hands-on with SMBs across both the UK and the Netherlands, so I understand the commercial reality behind the request: you don't want clever AI, you want fewer hours lost, faster turnaround, and a system your team trusts. I scope around outcomes and ROI, communicate in plain language, and handle the project like the senior delivery lead you'd hire internally. Clear plans, visible progress, no jargon, no surprises. You get production-grade engineering, genuine business sense, and someone who's easy to work with from discovery through handover.

About Tristan
Senior Automation & AI Engineer | n8n, AI Agents & Resilient Workflows
Patchway, United Kingdom - 4:05 am local time
I'm a senior backend engineer (8+ years, distributed systems and cloud-native architecture) who now builds automation and AI workflows for small and medium businesses. The difference between me and most automation freelancers is simple: I don't just connect App A to App B and hope it holds. I design systems that are reliable, scalable, and don't fall over when real data and real load hit them.
⚙️ What I build for clients
• AI Lead-Generation & Research Pipelines (Scrape → Enrich → Qualify → Personalised Outreach → CRM)
• AI agents & Chatbots that Classify, Route, Summarise, and Draft (OpenAI, Claude, DeepSeek)
• Document & Invoice Processing (PDF/email in → structured data out → straight into your tools)
• CRM, email, and Slack/Teams automation that keeps data clean and in sync
• Resilient data integrations & ETL pipelines — with proper error handling and retries
• Custom API integrations and webhooks for the tools off-the-shelf connectors can't reach
🔧 My stack
n8n (primary) · Zapier · OpenAI / Claude / DeepSeek · LangChain · RAG · REST APIs & webhooks · Airtable · HubSpot · Supabase · Python. Plus a deep software-engineering background (Java, Spring, microservices, event-driven systems) for the genuinely hard custom work.
🧭 How I work
I consult first, then automate. Most failed automation projects fail because someone rushed to build before understanding the actual workflow. I start with a short discovery call, map your current (manual) process, find the highest-ROI opportunities, and give you a clear phased plan before a single workflow gets built. You'll always know what you're getting, what it costs, and what it saves.
✅ What you get
Hours back every week, fewer human errors, clean documentation, and systems your team can actually trust, built by someone who has shipped production software at scale, not just watched a tutorial.
If your team is drowning in repetitive tasks, or you've got an automation that keeps breaking, let's talk. A 20-minute call and I can usually tell you exactly where the biggest, fastest wins are.
Steps for completing your project
After purchasing the project, send requirements so Tristan can start the project.
Delivery time starts when Tristan receives requirements from you.
Tristan works on your project following the steps below.
Revisions may occur after the delivery date.
Discovery call & detailed scoping
We run a structured discovery call to map your current process, pain points, data sources and success metrics. I confirm scope, complexity tier, integrations and the agentic approach, then share a clear written plan before any build begins.
Solution architecture & build plan
I design the full system: agent logic, RAG over your knowledge base, tool/API calls, custom nodes and human-in-the-loop checkpoints. You get an architecture diagram and node-by-node plan so you know exactly what's being built and why.
