    20+ years of database and backend work, PHP/SQL first, Python and AI pipelines these days. My specialty is messy data: supplier catalogs, PDF price lists, scans and product photos in, clean structured records out, every value traced to its source. I built and run two live SaaS products that do exactly that, so you can try the work before you talk to me. Looking for remote contract work, fixed scope preferred: AI/data pipelines, catalog and OCR systems, product data cleanup, Shopify/WooCommerce integrations. One founder, no agency, I do the work myself. Flexible hours, happy to overlap with your timezone.
