What I build

The software your operation runs on.

Maintain is my practice. I work with operator-led teams that outgrew their tools and need someone to build the next thing: a custom web or mobile app, an internal admin tool, a voice system, an integration between systems that don't talk, or a workflow automation with a human approval gate. AI shows up when it earns its keep.

Autonomous Outbound Voice Agent

An always-on voice agent that dials a thousand-lead call sheet a day, qualifies every prospect against the same script, and warm-transfers the hot ones to a live rep in seconds. About 10x the top-of-funnel throughput on the same headcount.

  • Sub-second turn-taking with barge-in, so the call feels like a call.
  • Compliance built in: DNC scrubbing, TCPA disclosures, calling-hours gating, full recordings.
  • Live review dashboard for recordings, dispositions, and start/stop control mid-campaign.
  • Roughly two dollars per booked appointment, all-in.

Multi-Tenant Community Platform

Improved a multi-tenant community platform (a native mobile app plus an admin console) for a growing community that had outgrown group chats and forwarded emails. The member app reflects their community; the admin console publishes with version history and safe rollback.

  • Native iOS + Android app with tenant-aware theming and role-based access.
  • Admin dashboard with versioned publish and one-click restore, so it's safe to move fast.
  • Row-level security in the data layer so every tenant sees only what belongs to them.
  • Email-OTP auth, per-tenant seed data, and an EAS-driven release pipeline.

Vision-to-Listing Product Pipeline

Built an end-to-end vision pipeline that turns raw product photos into live, SEO-ready storefront listings, with a human approval checkbox before anything publishes. Scaled listing creation from a handful a week to hundreds without hiring a content team.

  • Operator uploads photos into a single intake location.
  • Vision model returns structured JSON: title, description, SEO terms, tags, color, price.
  • Reviewer ticks an approval checkbox on rows they accept.
  • Approved rows auto-publish as live products.

Multi-Department Onboarding Platform

Architected and shipped a chat-native onboarding platform spanning six departments. One intake form fans out to department-specific task lists, auto-provisions accounts, tracks per-task completion, and powers a live leadership dashboard.

  • 4.5 hours of cross-team coordination per hire → under 1 hour.
  • ~7 hours/week saved company-wide, ~28 hours/month.
  • Replaces 100+ emails and a dozen e-sign uploads per hire cycle.
  • Leadership gets a self-updating completion dashboard instead of manual status chases.

Unified Sales & Ops Pipeline

Designed and built a unified sales pipeline for a growing business that was losing leads across disconnected systems. Every inbound lead (phone, email, web form, calendar inquiry) lands in one pipeline with context, deadlines, and automated follow-up.

  • Seven back-office systems consolidated behind a single operator view.
  • Automatic routing, ownership assignment, and closed-loop confirmation back to the source channel.

Workspace Administration in a Regulated Environment

Own workspace administration as the sole IT operator: OU structure, groups architecture, email routing, DLP, access control, vendor BAA review, and user lifecycle. Security posture is built around actual data flows. Audit how teams use collaboration tools, layer targeted DLP where PHI and PII actually move, and pair every guardrail with documentation so people aren't motivated to work around it.

Working with AI

LLMs are infrastructure, not novelty.

Claude and ChatGPT are part of my default stack. I use them for scripting, debugging, and summarizing tickets, and as the reasoning layer inside the systems themselves. The vision-to-listing pipeline treats the model as infrastructure behind a structured-output contract and a human approval gate. The outbound voice agent uses a small, fast model on a sub-second voice runtime. Both stay deterministic downstream, with a human checkpoint wherever the cost of a mistake matters.

Have something you need built?

An app, a tool, a voice system, an integration, a workflow to automate. If an in-house engineer would build it for your operation, it's the kind of work Maintain takes on. Book an intro call or send a short note describing the problem.
