AL Imran B.
AI Automation & DevOps Engineer | Linux, n8n & Server Security
I build, automate, and secure custom AI applications and the infrastructure they run on. With 10+ years in Linux administration and DevOps, I make sure your AI workflows, websites and apps are deployed reliably and stay secure in production. I combine AI development (OpenAI and Claude APIs), automation (n8n, Zapier) and CI/CD (GitHub Actions, Docker) to deliver end-to-end solutions, from idea to a live, monitored system. ✨ What I build: • AI automations and agents: lead follow-up, document processing, reporting and approval workflows • Custom AI applications: Django, React and PostgreSQL apps with AI built in • Ultra-modern websites built with AI: fast, secure and easy to manage • DevOps and servers: Linux (Ubuntu/Debian), Nginx/Apache, AWS, DigitalOcean, Docker, security hardening and performance ✨ Recent results: • Built an AI preconstruction bid platform for a Canadian contractor, cutting document review from over a week to about 30 minutes • Built n8n workflows that automated a 655-product catalog upload from Google Sheets to Shopify • Deployed AI automation pipelines with human-approval gates in Slack • Restored a Django/React/PostgreSQL production app on DigitalOcean after dependency failures • Hardened WordPress sites across multiple hosts, resolving security incidents and resource exhaustion ✨ Why work with me: • Full lifecycle: I don't just build it. I deploy, secure and maintain it. • Reliability: 10+ years keeping servers up and data safe • Practical AI: I automate what saves you real time, not what just sounds impressive Need a custom AI application, a workflow automated, or your servers made rock-solid? Send me a message and let's talk about your project.
