I build automation systems for teams that want operations to move faster, cleaner, and with less manual work.
About
"I build automated workflows and agentic systems for teams that want operations to run faster, cleaner, and with less manual effort."
Engineer who moved into ops
The engineering background is not a past chapter. It is why I lead operations differently.
I build the system, not just the process
I do not stop at identifying inefficiency. I wire up the system that removes it.
Process first, tool second
Tool choice follows process understanding. That is what makes automation mature rather than template-driven.
At Silverthread Labs, I work at the overlap of engineering and operations, designing and implementing systems for workflow routing, reporting, delivery coordination, and internal execution.
I am hands-on with the actual build. I map the process, decide what should be automated, wire the logic, integrate the tools, and make the workflow run in production.
Because I come from software engineering, I do not stop at diagnosing inefficiency. When a workflow is slow, fragile, or breaking, I can go into the system itself, fix the logic, and rebuild the workflow properly.
If you need automation built for real operations work, not just discussed at a strategy level, I bring both the implementation depth and the operational judgment required to make it useful.
Experience
VP of Operations & Workflow Automation Specialist
I run operations at Silverthread Labs and build the automated systems underneath them. The two aren't separate: the ops strategy and the technical build are the same job here.
- Design and own internal processes: work routing, team coordination, performance tracking, client delivery
- Build the automation infrastructure the company runs on using n8n, Make, and Zapier
- Build agentic workflows for multi-step tasks that used to require constant human involvement
- Integrate GPT and LLMs into internal processes where AI decision-making replaces manual steps
- Translate technical capabilities into operational decisions leadership can act on
Full Stack Developer & Workflow Automation Engineer
Handled full stack development and internal workflow automation. Built automated pipelines and integrated automation platforms into the company stack while continuing to ship on the development side.
Workflow Automation Engineer
Built end-to-end automated workflows using n8n, Make, and Zapier. Worked on both client-facing automations and internal process pipelines. Focus was on automation logic that holds up under real production conditions.
Technical Lead, Workflow Automation & SaaS
Owned systems-level work across two tracks: internal automation and client SaaS development.
- Built internal workflows that replaced manual processes across approvals, onboarding, and reporting
- Led technical direction for client SaaS products: architecture, delivery scoping, engineering-to-product alignment
- Built early agentic workflows for multi-step development and ops tasks
Full Stack Developer
Built and shipped production features across the full stack: frontend UIs and backend APIs for SaaS products with real users.

Selected Work
Reporting Pipeline
Eliminated a full day of manual work per week
Built an automated reporting pipeline that replaced 8+ hours of manual data aggregation every week. Data flows automatically from multiple sources, gets processed, and lands in clean reports. No human required.
Intelligent Work Router
Replaced chaotic Slack-thread coordination
Designed and built a work routing system that automatically assigns incoming tasks based on type, priority, and capacity. Replaced a Slack-thread-and-spreadsheet process that was breaking under volume.
Agentic Dev Workflows
Multi-step dev tasks that run themselves
Built agentic coding workflows for multi-step technical tasks that used to require someone sitting there the whole time. From spec to implementation to PR: automated, auditable, repeatable.
