AI & Automation Engineer

I embed AI into
your operations.

Your team is spending hours on work that should take minutes. I build the AI systems that fix it — and I stay to keep them running.

Step 01

Learn the business

I sit with the team, map workflows, and find where AI actually helps. No assumptions, no template — the system has to fit the operation, not the other way around.

Step 02

Build inside the stack

Working systems go into the actual operations — real code, in your tools, used by your team. Not slide decks. Not isolated demos. The thing has to run.

Step 03

Stay and evolve

Systems break. Tools update. Businesses grow. I keep what I built running, fix what cracks, and ship what’s next as the operation matures.

How I show up.

Listen

Understanding before doing

Access, intros, listening. I learn the tools, the workflows, the places things break. I’d rather be the new person who asks too many questions early than ship the wrong thing later.

Build

First systems take shape

Once I know enough, I start. Not polished demos — actual things going into actual workflows. Working code beats slide decks every time.

Compound

Systems go live

First builds land in production. We measure, adjust, ship the next round. Each system that runs frees capacity for the next — the work compounds.

Built by someone who loves what he does.

I’m Rodruey, an AI & Automation Engineer based in the Philippines, working with teams around the world.

I came into this from an unusual angle. I studied Civil Engineering and worked in data analysis before I ever touched AI. That background didn’t just teach me how to build things, it taught me how to think in systems. Where things connect. Where they break. What needs to survive under real pressure. When I got into AI, that way of thinking turned out to be the thing that makes everything I build actually hold up in production.

I work primarily with Claude, bringing in automation platforms and other AI tools where they fill the gaps. At the end of the day the goal is the same: build systems that actually run your business, not just sit next to it. I’ve seen the alternative. Freelancers disappear after the handoff. Agencies move on. I’d rather stay, learn the details, and keep building.

Outside client work, I’m always tinkering. Current obsession: Claude Code and the frameworks around it. Recently shipped a Chrome extension for freelancers, built Claude skills that automated lead generation across different platforms and email drafting straight into Gmail, and somewhere in between built a gamified productivity tracker just to see what it could do. The tools move fast. I make sure I move with them.
