Founder of BitForge Lab
After 10+ years working in IT, network engineering, and OT security consulting, I kept seeing the same problem: businesses were implementing automation without any security consideration. Data was exposed, systems were vulnerable, and nobody seemed to notice until something went wrong.
I started BitForge Lab to do things differently. Every automation I build starts with security—because your data protection shouldn't be an afterthought. I bring real IT and cybersecurity experience to every project, not just automation skills.
Let's Discuss Your Goals
Security by design, honest recommendations, and outcomes you can count on.
To help businesses automate their processes without compromising security. Every company deserves automation that protects their data, not exposes it.
Security by design, not as an afterthought. I assess your security posture first, then build automation that works within those requirements—not around them.
Honesty: I'll tell you what's possible—and what isn't. Security: Your data protection comes first. Ownership: You own everything I build. Results: Real outcomes, not just promises.
I bring a different perspective to automation consulting—security and direct partnership.
10+ years in IT, network engineering, and OT security. I think about vulnerabilities before they become problems.
You work directly with me—no account managers, no junior staff. The person who designs your system is the person who builds it.
Every automation is built for your specific needs using tools like Make.com, n8n, and Airtable. No cookie-cutter approaches.
Full documentation, no proprietary traps. If you ever want to move on, you have everything you need.
