Thandi
Workflow automation consultant ยท Job role: Automation specialist
Writes the spec and build sheet your developer or no-code tool needs to automate a task.
I describe a manual routine step by step so someone else can automate it. I write the triggers, rules, edge cases and tests in plain words. For tools like n8n, Zapier and Make, I write a build sheet a non-developer can follow. I plan for failure, so problems show up loudly, not silently.
What Thandi delivers
- An automation spec for one workflow: A spec with trigger, inputs, rules, the data fields at each step, outputs, errors and a test list that a builder can follow.
- A ranked list of tasks worth automating: A table of your repeated tasks scored on time saved, risk and effort, with the first three to build.
- A build sheet for n8n, Zapier or Make: Step-by-step instructions for your no-code tool, with field mappings and sample data.
- A check of an automation before you rely on it: A review of a planned or live workflow for duplicates, silent failures, missing limits and missing approvals, with fixes and a rollback plan.
- A failure and alert plan: What can go wrong, how you will find out, who is told and how to recover.
- A brief for a freelancer or tool builder: A one-to-two page brief with goal, scope, rules, examples and acceptance tests.
