Automation & AI systems
I build automation systems that reduce ops load and increase revenue throughput.
Faizan Sohail — Automation Engineer & AI Agent Developer based in Dublin, Ireland. I ship business-first systems across Make.com, Zapier, n8n, Airtable, GoHighLevel, VAPI/Retell, and AI tooling — designed with retries, idempotency, and real-world edge cases in mind.

What I do
Core capabilities
End-to-end automation across the full stack — from scraping raw data to deploying AI voice agents that work 24/7.
AI Voice Agents
Inbound and outbound AI callers that qualify leads, handle objections, and book appointments — integrated with your CRM and calendar.
Workflow Automation
Connect any apps, automate every repetitive process, and build no-code pipelines with full error handling and monitoring.
CRM Build & Automation
Custom Airtable CRMs with dashboards, forms, interfaces, and automations. GoHighLevel pipelines, opportunity tracking, and email/SMS sequences.
AI & LLM Pipelines
Connect GPT-4, Claude, and other LLMs into your workflows — for email triage, call review, document parsing, and intelligent routing.
Python & API Integration
Custom Python scripts, ETL pipelines, and API integrations. If it has documentation, I can integrate it — I've done it dozens of times.
Finance & Payments
Accounting automation with QuickBooks and Xero. Complex payment integrations including Stripe, Radom (crypto), and invoice processing.

How I work
My process
Refined over years and hundreds of projects. You always know where things stand.
Research your business
Before our first call I study your website and any public info — so I walk in understanding your business, not asking basic questions.
Discovery call
I ask about the apps you use, the manual tasks you hate, and what a successful outcome looks like. Then I guide you on what's possible.
Get access & build
I get all platform credentials, map the full workflow end-to-end, and start building — resolving unknowns before I bring them to you.
QA test
I test across edge cases, missing values, and failure scenarios. Error handling is a first-class feature — not an afterthought.
Go live & monitor
I flip it live and watch the first real runs closely. I only hand off when I'm confident it handles your real data cleanly.
Handoff & support
Full documentation, Loom walkthroughs, and ongoing maintenance if you need it. You're never left wondering how anything works.
Client reviews
What clients say
Feedback from Upwork, LinkedIn, and direct engagements.
“Faizan built our entire backend automation for Capital Club — 15+ platforms, custom CRM, crypto payments. It's been running for 9 months without a single issue. Exceptional work.”
“Our AI cold-caller qualifies leads and books appointments on its own. Faizan set it all up — VAPI, Make.com, GHL — and it just works. My team doesn't touch cold calls anymore.”
“The sales call review bot is a game changer. Every rep gets a detailed scorecard right after the call ends. We've seen a noticeable improvement in conversion in just 6 weeks.”
“Very communicative, thorough with QA, and genuinely understands business — not just code. Faizan tested every edge case before going live. Exactly what I needed.”
