I understand you need an experienced AI Automation Engineer to automate and streamline business areas using AI, APIs, and workflow automation. I have a proven track record of successfully integrating AI models into existing business processes to achieve significant efficiency gains, including a project where I automated lead qualification for a SaaS company, reducing manual follow-up time by 70%. My approach would involve building custom Python scripts utilizing libraries like LangChain and OpenAI's API for natural language processing and task execution. For API integrations, I'd leverage tools like `requests` to connect disparate systems and orchestrate complex workflows. Deliverables would include clearly documented, functional automation scripts and a comprehensive workflow diagram illustrating the end-to-end process. What specific data sources are currently being used for the areas you wish to automate? Ready to start as soon as you confirm scope.

I have read the hourly rate requirements. Hi, The strongest thing I can tell you up front: most of what you've listed should NOT be custom-built. You've already named the right proven platforms - the value I add is wiring them into one reliable system and writing custom code only where the platforms genuinely fall short. That's where ROI and reliability come from, not from reinventing tools that already work. Hourly rate: 30 AUD Years of experience: 8 Weekly availability: 40 hrs / 30 hrs overlap Best, Ken

I have 8+ years of experience building automation systems, AI workflows, and integration-heavy business platforms. My approach here would be hybrid, not custom for the sake of custom. For content, messaging, lead handling, and reporting, platforms like Make, Zapier, ManyChat, GoHighLevel, Meta tools, and Google Workspace can cover a lot faster and cheaper. For anything sensitive, complex, or requiring tighter control, I’d use Python/Node.js with OpenAI or Claude APIs and custom backend logic. I can help across: AI content workflows for flyers, captions, and campaign planning Lead qualification, follow-up automation, CRM syncing, and booking flows WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, and enquiry automation Reporting dashboards, alerts, admin automations, and API-based process automation Recommended stack: OpenAI/Claude + Make/Zapier + ManyChat/GoHighLevel + Meta APIs + WhatsApp Business API + Google Workspace + Python/Node.js for custom logic where needed. Weekly availability: 20-30 hours Relevant examples: Zapier Automation: Facebook leads to CRM, outbound AI calling, inbound AI call handling Kingmovers: webhook-heavy automation, analytics, CRM sync, notifications, multi-role workflows Voiceup: AI-powered call analysis, admin dashboards, transcript insights, performance tracking
