Omschrijving

I help businesses and NGO's access powerful tech tools and business practices that have revolutionized big companies but are now accessible and affordable at every level. Using a suite of database, automation and AI tools, I create custom-built systems that can revolutionize how a company or organization does their work. I do this by using no-code/low-code tools to build a strategic, scalable and optimized system that either integrates with, syncs with, or replaces the tools you already use.

When designing and architecting a system or solution, I tend to keep a few high level goals in mind:

1. I try to see the system through the eyes of the user. I want to delight, inform and simplify life for users in every way.

2. I always keep in mind scalability goals. It's easy to make something work - it's hard to make it work at a different scale. It's why I'm always interested in the growth goals of a client.

3. Push efficiency without quality loss. The right kind of efficiency should lead to quality improvements. Efficiency with quality loss isn't sustainable long-term.

4. I try to centralize work as much as possible. It's a lot easier to use a small suite of tools than to have a tool for everything. That's why I value flexible tools like Airtable and Notion that can do a lot, and if necessary, let a few other integrated tools do some specialised tasks.

5. Great communication is key to the success of any project. I communicate progress daily and offer opportunities for feedback often. I am always honest and genuine in my communication with clients.

I have experience integrating Airtable, Notion, Bubble, Softr, Make, Zapier, N8N, MS365, Quickbooks, Xero, Shopify, ECWID, Ship Station, Square, Slack, Google Docs, One Drive, PandaDocs, Documint, and many more. I can work with anything that plugs into anything else via API, and can learn new platforms and integrations with ease. I can code in Javascript, Python and am SQL literate.
