## What I do

I automate repetitive business work so you stop doing it by hand. Typical jobs:

- Connecting tools through REST APIs and webhooks (CRMs, marketing automation, payment tools, spreadsheets, internal systems)

- Replacing manual CSV imports and exports with scheduled data syncs

- Spreadsheet automation: Excel macros, Google Sheets and Apps Script, auto-updating reports

- Web scraping and monitoring (prices, listings, availability, changes to a page) delivered to a sheet, database, or your inbox

- Data cleanup: deduplicating, reformatting, merging messy files, and converting between formats (CSV, Excel, JSON, XML)

- Bulk file and document processing: batch renaming, PDF text and table extraction, invoice and form data entry

- Email automation: parsing incoming messages, auto-sorting, scheduled reports, and notifications

- Custom Slack and Discord bots, plus alerts for things you currently check by hand

- Scheduled jobs and cron tasks, including fixing old scripts that keep breaking

- Small internal tools and dashboards: admin pages, forms, and lookups on top of your existing data

- Workflows that outgrew Zapier or Make: rebuilding them as reliable code without per-task pricing

- AI-assisted workflows, such as pulling structured data out of documents or drafting and categorizing messages, with human review built in

- Database work: SQL queries, cleanup, and performance tuning for MySQL/PostgreSQL

- Linux server setup and maintenance (Apache, Gunicorn, SSL, email, monitoring scripts)

- Site and hosting migrations with minimal downtime

If you're not sure whether your workflow is automatable, describe it and we can work something out.

## Rates

$40/hr, or a fixed price once we agree on requirements. Small projects and one-off scripts are welcome. No free or speculative work.
