Automation Specialist | n8n, API Integrations, AI Workflows & CRM

Most "automation" on Upwork means a Zapier zap that breaks the first time an edge case hits it. I build systems that actually run business operations — and keep running, not just the demo. If you're dealing with one of these, that's exactly where I come in: Processes that are still manual and eating hours every week Automations that are unreliable, silently failing, or breaking under real usage Tools that don't talk to each other, so someone's stuck copy-pasting between platforms I design and build structured, end-to-end workflows using n8n, Make, Zapier, APIs, and AI — engineered to run in the background without you babysitting them. What I typically build: End-to-end lead flow systems, from form submission to CRM to follow-up n8n workflows with proper structure, logging, and error handling — not a chain of triggers held together with hope API integrations between SaaS platforms and internal tools AI-powered workflows (OpenAI, Claude) for classification, enrichment, and routing Data synchronization across CRMs, databases, and third-party platforms Internal automation systems that replace repetitive operational work I also handle self-hosted setups — deploying n8n on DigitalOcean, configuring environments, and setting up backups — so what you end up with is infrastructure you own, not a subscription you're renting forever. My approach: build it clean, make it reliable, make it scale. You won't get a fragile setup that only works under perfect conditions. You'll get a system that's still running the day your business has outgrown the plan you started with. Have a workflow that's breaking? I'll audit and stabilize it. Starting from scratch? I'll design and build the right system from day one — backed by a Top Rated, 5.0 track record and 20 years doing this. Send me your current setup or project scope and I'll map out the best approach.
