Summary

Building production AI systems
from prompt to VPS.

AI Automation Engineer building production-grade agent systems, multi-modal generative pipelines, and self-hosted workflow infrastructure. 15+ years deep in Linux, scaling into the modern AI stack: Claude / GPT / Gemini orchestration, MCP-based tool integration, n8n at scale, voice cloning, image and video synthesis, and CLIP-based semantic retrieval. I design end-to-end systems — from prompt and agent architecture through Python, FFmpeg, Docker, and VPS deployment — and ship them into production. Rare hybrid: I also run a working design studio (visualgenius), so the systems I build come with polished product UI and brand-grade visual output. Operator-first: I optimise for ROI, uptime, and time saved, not novelty.

What I Build

Eight core competencies,
shipped in production.

🤖

Agent Systems & LLM Orchestration

Multi-tool agents that think, decide, and act across APIs. Claude/GPT/Gemini with function calling & ReAct loops, MCP multi-source tool integration, OpenClaw runtime with persistent memory, Claude Code plugins and agent architecture.

⚙️

n8n Workflow Automation

Self-driving business systems that replace manual ops. Self-hosted production n8n (Docker+Traefik+Postgres), event-driven webhooks / scheduled DAGs / queue-mode, custom Python & JS function nodes, REST/GraphQL/SOAP at scale.

🎙️

Voice & Audio AI

Cloned voices and speech pipelines for production content. ElevenLabs custom voice cloning (Creator-tier), multilingual TTS with emotional range, Whisper STT & WhisperKey, narration pipelines synced to visual timelines.

🎬

Image & Video Generation

Multi-modal pipelines from prompt to broadcast-ready. Gemini 2.5 Flash Image / Midjourney v6 / Stable Diffusion, Kling AI / HeyGen / fal.ai, FFmpeg compositing (Ken Burns / parallax / captioning), CLIP semantic frame retrieval.

🧠

Retrieval & Knowledge Systems

RAG, semantic search, document intelligence. Vector embeddings (CLIP / OpenAI / sentence-transformers), chunking & re-ranking, MCP-mediated retrieval across Box / Drive / Gmail / Calendar, structured extraction from PDFs / legal packs / contracts.

🐧

Infrastructure & DevOps

15+ years of bedrock reliability. Ubuntu / RedHat / CentOS / Docker / Traefik v3, PostgreSQL / NGINX / cPanel-WHM / Cloudflare, SSH key management / server hardening / incident forensics, automated backups / log analysis / uptime monitoring.

🎨

Design & Visual Systems

Product UI, brand identity, campaign visuals. Figma / Photoshop / Illustrator / FigJam, fintech dashboards / SaaS UI / mobile financial flows, brand identity systems / design tokens / hero visuals, packaging / editorial / logo systems.

⌨️

Programming & APIs

The glue that holds it all together. Python (async / Pillow / ffmpeg-python / FastAPI), Bash / JavaScript-Node / SQL / JSON-YAML / regex / Git, 20+ API integrations: Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, ElevenLabs, fal.ai, Pexels, Adzuna, Swissquote, Stripe, Wise.

Selected Projects

Nine production systems
currently shipping.

Multi-Modal Documentary Synthesis Pipeline

Abyss of Crime2025–present

Self-hosted Python pipeline that ingests a case name and produces a finished, broadcast-ready long-form documentary — script, voice, generative imagery, B-roll, dynamic overlays, and final render.

  • Stage-based orchestration across Claude (script), ElevenLabs (cloned voice), Gemini 2.5 Flash Image (visuals), Pexels API (B-roll), and FFmpeg (assembly)
  • CLIP-based semantic frame extractor pulls visual context from source YouTube footage to keep generated imagery on-style
  • 7 distinct FFmpeg visual-effect modules + Pillow procedural overlay engine (lower thirds, photo frames, title cards)
  • Checkpoint-based recovery — long renders survive process restarts without re-running paid API calls
  • Cut single-episode production from ~40 hours manual to under 2 hours fully automated

Production WhatsApp Conversational Agent

"Jason" on OpenClaw2025

Multi-tool agent deployed via OpenClaw with WhatsApp Business integration, running in Docker behind Traefik on a hardened VPS.

  • Tool-calling agent on Claude backbone with persistent session state in PostgreSQL — scheduling, info lookup, multi-turn conversations
  • Webhook-driven inbound, structured JSON logging, retry and idempotency logic on outbound dispatch
  • Modular tool registry — new capabilities added by registering a Python function and prompt, no agent rewrite

Property Due-Diligence AI Toolkit

IAG Estates2024–present

Internal toolkit that compresses days of property-investment analyst work into minutes for UK auction and off-market deal flow.

  • LLM-driven extraction across legal packs, title docs, leases, and EPC reports — structured deal sheets with red flags
  • Comparable-sales scoring agent ingests Land Registry / Rightmove / Zoopla data, ranks by yield, refurb spread, exit risk
  • Tenant-communication automation drafts compliant, tone-matched replies for routine landlord correspondence

Algorithmic Market-Open Briefing Engine

n8n + Swissquote + ECB2025

Zero-touch n8n DAG pulling live gold and FX feeds, formatting an HTML briefing, and dispatching before market open every trading day.

  • Replaced 30+ minutes of manual data gathering each morning with a fully automated pipeline
  • Source- and channel-agnostic — new feeds or output destinations swap in within minutes via reusable sub-workflows
  • LLM-generated commentary layer adds market context alongside the raw numbers

Semantic Job-Match & Application Engine

n8n + Adzuna + Claude + Gmail2026

End-to-end pipeline monitoring live job boards, scoring listings against a candidate profile, and drafting tailored cover letters into Gmail.

  • Adzuna feed ingestion with deduplication and recency filtering, queued into n8n
  • LLM ranking layer scores fit before drafting — saves tokens, prioritises the top 10%
  • Claude-drafted cover letters land as ready-to-review Gmail drafts via the Gmail API

Cross-Platform Document Intelligence Layer

MCP-Mediated Retrieval2026

Unified retrieval layer over Box, Google Drive, Gmail, Calendar — exposed to Claude through MCP servers.

  • MCP server orchestration — single agent queries across storage silos with per-source auth and rate limiting
  • Semantic-search layer over indexed documents for fast retrieval at query time
  • Used in production for due-diligence research, contract review, and correspondence drafting

visualgenius — Design Studio

AI-Native Product & Brand DesignOngoing

One-person studio shipping product UI, brand systems, and campaign visuals for founders and product teams.

  • Fintech dashboards, SaaS analytics interfaces, trading and crypto UIs — conversion-led, component-ready systems
  • Brand identity systems with wordmarks, type and colour tokens that scale from favicon to large-format campaigns
  • Workflow accelerated by Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, and LLM-driven moodboarding

AI Design Asset Production Pipeline

ZenLayerStudio2024–2025

Batch generation pipeline producing print-on-demand and digital design assets at volume for Etsy.

  • Midjourney + Stable Diffusion batch generation driven by LLM-curated prompt-sets — scored, filtered, upscaled programmatically
  • Automated mockup generation, watermarking, and Etsy-listing draft creation via Pillow and the Etsy API

Self-Hosted Automation Infrastructure

n8n / Docker / Traefik / PostgresOngoing

Production VPS hosting all of the above — multi-workflow n8n, Dockerised services, Traefik reverse proxy with auto-TLS, PostgreSQL.

  • Migrated stack from Traefik v2 to v3 and resolved n8n v2.11.x compatibility breakage with no downtime
  • Hardened SSH (key-only auth), automated PostgreSQL backups, log shipping, uptime monitoring
