Helping tech teams automate workflows and build AI-powered systems.

Introduction

Me in Pamukkale
Hello World! I'm Xavi Valdés, a Senior Software Engineer specialized in system integrations, workflow automation, and AI. I help companies connect their tools, streamline processes, and unlock new efficiencies—whether through APIs, scripting, or intelligent agents. I build scalable, high-performance backends and custom integrations that go beyond standard APIs, including reverse engineering and web scraping when needed. I've worked across platforms like Wrike, Airtable, Google Calendar, DAMs, Perforce, ... Lately, I’ve been exploring the potential of AI agents and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems to solve real-world problems. My goal is to blend automation and intelligence in ways that truly transform workflows. I started freelancing in 2019, and now I run my own company to keep helping teams and businesses improve their architecture, integrate systems, and work smarter.
