@zacchaeusakinwale
Senior Analytics Engineer and AI automation consultant building LLM agents, pipelines, and CRM automation that cut manual work.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Analytics Engineer and AI Automation Consultant with 9+ years of experience building data infrastructure across Fintech and Blockchain ecosystems. I’ve pivoted into production-grade AI automation by designing and deploying end-to-end LLM agent systems, agentic workflow pipelines, and CRM automation stacks.
Over the past 2+ years, I’ve delivered measurable results by reducing manual operations by 70%+ across client environments spanning the US, UK, and Africa. My edge is a rare blend of analytics engineering foundations—SQL, data modeling, and warehouse workflows—combined with hands-on AI automation expertise.
I’ve built and integrated LLM-powered systems across the full stack: lead scoring and routing using OpenAI GPT-4, appointment-setting with voice AI (Vapi) and Twilio, and business-DNA RAG systems using LangChain, Supabase vector storage, and embeddings for contextual memory. I also engineer agentic automations that connect CRM and operational workflows (HubSpot, GoHighLevel, Salesforce, Supabase, and more), with clear ownership and communication end-to-end.
In addition to automation, I strengthen analytics reliability and decision-making through dbt/warehouse modeling, data quality frameworks, KPI operationalization, and dashboard delivery (Power BI, Metabase, Superset, and Tableau). I enjoy working with engineering and product teams remotely—turning complex requirements into production systems, faster insights, fewer errors, and sustained business impact.
