I will automate your erp workflows as an ex cto


About this gig
I'm Thierry, the ex-CTO behind ERP Automate.
I ran engineering for SME operations before this. ERP rollouts, order processing pipelines, and integrations that had to survive Monday morning, not just pass a demo.
A recent build: a production system that reads incoming order emails, extracts the order data, and creates the orders automatically in Shopify, Odoo and Katana. Nobody retypes anything.
What I do: workflow automation connecting your ERP, Shopify, Odoo, Katana or custom system to the tools your team already uses. n8n is my primary platform. I write custom code where the no-code path turns fragile.
Every delivery includes a handover your team can own: documentation, a walkthrough, and a setup that doesn't break when something upstream changes.
I keep my client list small. That's deliberate: I'm accountable for what ships.
Start here: the Operations Automation Diagnostic. Map your highest-leverage automation, get a written brief, and walk away with a clear path, whether you build it yourself, hand it to your team, or continue with me.
Message me before ordering. A short conversation tells us both whether this is a fit.

FAQ
Why not hire a cheaper automation freelancer?
Most automation gigs deliver a working flow in a demo. Production is different. Your ERP has edge cases, volumes move, and someone maintains it when a field changes upstream. I bring CTO-level judgment about what survives a real stack. If you need a simple Zapier-style hook, I am not your best fit.
We don't know exactly what to automate. Is that okay?
That is what the diagnostic is for. Bring me your messiest manual process, the one your team does at 8am before anything else can happen. We will work out what is worth automating and what is not.
Who owns the automation after you deliver it?
You do, fully. I document everything, walk your team through it, and build on platforms your own developers can maintain. No proprietary black boxes and no monthly fee to me to keep it running.
What tools and platforms do you work with?
n8n is my primary platform. I integrate Shopify, Odoo, Katana and custom ERP systems, and write custom code where n8n alone falls short. One requirement: your systems need a usable API or database access. If your ERP is closed with no way in, I will tell you rather than build something brittle.
Do you sign NDAs?
Yes, standard NDAs are fine. Message me before ordering and we will sort that before the call.
Why do you ask buyers to message before ordering?
Because a mismatched project wastes your time and mine. The diagnostic works best when your stack and your goal are a real fit for what I do. Two minutes of context upfront makes the 60 minutes worth it for both of us.
