Expert Vetted | AI & Automation Strategist | Business Sys
🕵️I Build Actual Intelligence Systems I build complete AI systems that perform real operational work. My work spans construction quotation, financial market intelligence and trade execution, sales training, M&A due diligence, compliance intelligence, document validation, and conversational AI. These systems combine application logic, databases, AI reasoning, operational workflows, user interfaces, testing, auditability, and deployment infrastructure. 🏗️ Selected AI Product Builds AI-Powered Construction Quotation Platform Reduced quote time from 2 hours to 5 minutes AI-Assisted Financial Trading Platform Architected and built a modular financial market intelligence, strategy evaluation, and trade execution platform. It acquires live market data, analyzes structural liquidity and market terrain across multiple timeframes, identifies opportunities, generates trade intent, manages risk and exposure, routes orders through an exchange testnet, tracks positions, and records performance. AI Sales Training Platform It includes a backend API, database, authentication, session routing, training scenarios, transcripts, scoring, representative progression, and structured performance records. AI-Powered M&A Due Diligence Platform Designed and built an AI-powered due diligence platform for private-equity firms evaluating manufacturing acquisitions. Compliance Intelligence Platform Built a multi-module compliance intelligence platform for financial-services firms. It covers AML and KYC screening, risk management, regulatory-change monitoring, FinCEN and SAR case management, and FINRA trade surveillance through a FastAPI backend with OpenAI integration. 🕵️ AI Validation and Audit Work I identify AI failures before they cost clients money or reputation. In one engagement, I audited an SEC filing for a financial-services client and identified 47 fabricated citations in eight hours. The structured cross-audit method was designed to catch hallucinations in high-stakes documents before they reached a regulator, court, or board. 🎙️ Voice AI and Conversational Systems Configured and optimized an AI receptionist for a home-services company under a compressed launch timeline. Working directly with the product manager and head of engineering, I ran structured A/B/C testing to reduce homeowner hangups and improve call-handling quality. 📈 Operational AI and Automation Selected results from operational AI and automation work: Approximately 80% touchless invoice processing Invoice cycle time reduced from three days to same day Manual financial data entry reduced by approximately 90% Field reporting reduced from approximately 45 minutes to five minutes Missed operational follow-ups reduced by more than 90% On-time task completion improved by approximately 30% 🛠️ What I Can Build for You AI SaaS products and internal business applications AI quotation, estimation, and document-processing platforms Decision-support and operational command systems Sales-training and performance-management platforms Autonomous agents and multi-agent systems Complex workflows, APIs, and third-party integrations AI evaluation, audit, and failure-detection systems MVP architecture, product specifications, and implementation roadmaps Rescue plans for stalled, unreliable, or poorly structured AI products 💻 Technical Toolkit Languages and Frameworks Python FastAPI Laravel Livewire AI and Models OpenAI Claude AI system architecture and evaluation Automation n8n Make Zapier Custom webhooks GitHub Actions Data and Documents Document extraction OCR Financial-system integrations Custom dashboards APIs and Integration REST APIs Complex third-party integrations Built and open-sourced two GitHub developer tools: a three-tier AI agent memory system and a curated prompt-template library. 💼 Business Experience Behind the Technology More than 15 years leading business development, sales, operations, finance, product development, and technology initiatives. Grew an automotive division from $40 million to $140 million in annual revenue Secured major multimillion-dollar contracts Restructured companies to increase revenue while reducing costs Guided organizations through technology adoption and operational change That experience shapes how I build. I start with the business objective, operational bottleneck, decisions the system must make, and evidence required to prove it is working. I build the controls and checks needed to catch problems before they spread downstream. 🎯 Let’s Build Something Real Bring me the messy version of your idea. I’ll help turn it into an AI system people can actually use.
