Open to remote software & automation work

Software Developer &
AI Automation Builder

I build and maintain production web applications, and I design practical AI-powered automations that connect the tools businesses already use — n8n, APIs, webhooks, databases and AI.

Currently a Software Developer at M Lhuillier Financial Services. Open to remote software opportunities and automation projects.

About

Who I am

I’m Jerwin Babatugon, a software developer based in the Philippines. I build and maintain web applications that businesses rely on day to day, and I design automations that take repetitive manual work off people’s plates. My focus is practical: software and workflows that hold up in real use, not demos.

I’m currently a Software Developer at M Lhuillier Financial Services, working on internal financial systems with Next.js, React, Node.js and NestJS. Before that I spent over two years as a front-end developer at Medspecialized, building and maintaining applications for the company and its sister businesses, and I completed an intensive software engineering training program at Vauldex. Today I’m extending that experience into AI automation — using n8n, Apify, APIs and AI models to connect the tools a business already uses and cut out the steps people shouldn’t have to do by hand.

Automation & AI

Automating repetitive business processes

I build workflows that connect the tools a business already uses, so information moves on its own instead of by hand. This is a growing part of my work, built on my software development background.

What I connect

Business applications APIs AI models Databases Google Sheets Webhooks n8n Apify Email Notifications

How I approach a workflow

  1. Discover

    Map the repetitive process and where time is lost.

  2. Analyze

    Identify which steps are rule-based and safe to automate.

  3. Design

    Plan a workflow around your existing tools and data.

  4. Automate

    Build it in n8n with APIs, webhooks and AI where useful.

  5. Integrate

    Connect it to the apps, sheets and inboxes you already use.

  6. Deploy

    Put it live with error handling and notifications.

  7. Improve

    Monitor real runs and refine the logic over time.
