I'm an ex-Google engineer who builds the automation behind e-commerce operations, the Amazon and Shopify systems that keep inventory and orders in sync without anyone copying data by hand all day. My biggest Upwork project is one I still run today: an Amazon SP-API system across 50+ brand trackers that has held a single long-term contract for years.
Before Upwork I spent five years as a backend tech lead at Google, then ran engineering as a Director and later as a CTO. At Google I built BigQuery analytics dashboards that took report generation from over two hours down to three minutes, and that's the same kind of problem I solve now for sellers and agencies: the reports nobody has time to pull, inventory that quietly drifts across channels, and orders that have to move between Amazon, Shopify, a CRM, and a pile of spreadsheets on their own.
You're hiring a senior engineer who has owned production systems at real scale, not a no-code hobbyist who vanishes when something breaks. I work in Make, n8n, and Google Apps Script, and I write real code against the Amazon, Shopify, and marketplace APIs when the no-code tool runs out of room. On Upwork that adds up to 1,880+ hours, $100K+ earned, a 100% Job Success Score, and Top Rated Plus.
If part of your operation is held together by manual work right now, send me the details and I'll tell you straight whether it's worth automating and how I'd build it.
