AI Automation Engineer
Building Intelligent Systems. Automating What’s Next.
I build intelligent AI agents, automated workflows, and software solutions that connect AI with real-world business processes. From n8n automation and API integrations to computer vision research, I turn complex problems into practical, scalable systems.
About me
About Me
I’m an AI Automation Engineer and Software Engineer with a background in AI research. I design AI agents and workflow automations that connect tools such as Gmail, Airtable, Slack and OpenAI to real business processes.
On the research side, I built a machine vision system that improved piston rod measurement precision from approximately 20 μm to 3 μm. My experience spans software development, AI research and automation engineering.
