Maliwan Savage | AI Workflow & Systems Architect

Practical AI automation for content, publishing and operational workflows

I help teams reduce manual work and build reliable AI systems across content operations, SEO, localisation and internal tooling, with clear workflow states, human checkpoints and production-ready delivery.

Publishing workflowsSEO and localisation systemsInternal AI toolsWorkflow auditsPilot builds

Best suited to teams with manual, slow or fragile workflows across content, publishing, SEO operations and internal delivery.

What I do

I design and deliver practical automation systems for complex operational environments. Typical work includes publishing pipelines, localisation workflows, internal request routing, SEO operations and human-in-the-loop review flows.

How I deliver

My focus is not model novelty. It is reliable workflow design. That means explicit states, bounded retries, structured validation, operator checkpoints and clearer handoffs between automation and human judgement.

Current focus areas

Current work is centred on AI automation for content operations, publishing, SEO and localisation systems, along with workflow audits and pilot builds for teams introducing internal AI tools.

Services

Clear offers for teams improving real workflows

I help teams assess automation opportunities, build focused pilots and strengthen internal AI systems without drifting into vague or fragile tooling.

AI Automation Audit

Who it is for

Teams with manual, slow or error-prone workflows across content operations, publishing, SEO, localisation or internal delivery.

Problem it solves

Clarifies where automation will genuinely help, where human judgement should stay in place, and which workflow is worth piloting first.

What you get

  • Workflow mapping and handoff review
  • Task classification and automation suitability
  • Opportunity scoring and pilot recommendation

Pilot Build

Who it is for

Teams that already know one workflow they want to improve and need a practical pilot rather than a long discovery phase.

Problem it solves

Turns a clear operational problem into a working system with validation, workflow states and human checkpoints where needed.

What you get

  • Pilot workflow design and implementation
  • Validation, retries and approval logic
  • A tested handoff process and next-step recommendation

Advisory Support

Who it is for

Teams building internal tooling or automation in-house and wanting senior input on structure, risks and production readiness.

Problem it solves

Helps internal teams avoid fragile workflows, vague AI experiments and poorly scoped delivery decisions.

What you get

  • Workflow and architecture review
  • Delivery guidance and risk input
  • Ongoing support for internal builds

Case Studies

Selected Automation Systems

Concise case study notes showing the kinds of systems I build for content, publishing, SEO and internal operations.

Case study

Doc-to-WordPress Draft Orchestration

Production publishing workflow that converts structured source documents into WordPress drafts with predictable output.

Client need

Operational teams needed to move faster from source document to publishable draft without relying on repeated manual copy-paste and formatting cleanup.

System designed

A staged workflow for document parsing, field mapping, validation and WordPress draft creation, with bounded retries and operator checkpoints before publish.

Operational value

Faster draft creation, less formatting drift and clearer visibility into workflow state, exceptions and next actions.

Case study

PR Translation & Multi-site Publishing Pipeline

Multi-market release workflow that localises source content and routes validated drafts across WordPress sites.

Client need

Teams needed multilingual rollout across regions, but translation, localisation and publishing steps were fragmented and difficult to manage under time pressure.

System designed

A single pipeline coordinating source extraction, localisation rules, prompt-controlled translation, release routing and validation around required fields and links.

Operational value

Faster multilingual turnaround, more consistent output across locales and fewer defects during time-sensitive launches.

Case study

Slack-triggered Workflow Orchestration

Internal workflow system that turns Slack requests into routed tasks with explicit state handling and completion signals.

Client need

Operational requests were being tracked manually in chat, which created unclear ownership, missed steps and inconsistent follow-through.

System designed

A workflow layer that maps message intent to actions, owners and downstream stages, with validation gates, retries and escalation for unresolved states.

Operational value

Less coordination overhead, fewer dropped tasks and clearer visibility of who owns each step and what happens next.

Credibility

Built from real operational work

My work sits at the intersection of content operations, publishing systems, SEO delivery and internal tooling. I care about whether a workflow can be trusted in practice, not just whether it looks impressive in a demo.

Operational leadership

Led a 15-person SEO function and delivered 200% organic revenue growth, which shaped how I approach workflow design, ownership and measurable outcomes.

Publishing and localisation experience

Hands-on work across multi-site publishing, translation pipelines, content operations and AI-assisted delivery workflows with strong attention to handoffs and release discipline.

Commercial and technical grounding

MBA background with MIT professional training in data science, combined with day-to-day implementation across APIs, workflow orchestration and internal tools.

Technical Stack

Tools and delivery stack behind the work

I keep the stack practical and implementation-focused, with the emphasis on workflow design, integration and production reliability rather than novelty for its own sake.

Contact

Start a project conversation

Tell me which workflow is manual, slow or difficult to scale. I can help assess the opportunity, scope a pilot, or support an internal build already in progress.

Best current contact

For this base version, the cleanest public contact path is LinkedIn. Send a short note with the workflow you want to improve and I will take it from there.

Message on LinkedIn

What to send

Include the workflow, where it slows down, who is involved, and whether you want an audit, a pilot build or advisory support.

AI Automation Audit

Best first step if you want a structured review of workflow bottlenecks, handoffs and automation opportunities.

Book an AI Automation Audit

Pilot Build

For teams that already know the workflow they want to improve and want to discuss a focused pilot.

Advisory Support

For internal teams that need senior input on workflow design, tooling choices and production readiness.
