Engineer by training.
Builder by nature.

I'm Andrew Arbo — an AI & Data Automation specialist based in Dubai. I spent 3+ years at Deloitte transforming enterprise operations across EMEA and APAC before going independent to build systems that actually ship.

My background spans SAP environments, financial analytics, risk advisory, and large-scale data platforms. I've automated KPI reporting for multi-million-euro budgets, designed end-to-end data flows across Snowflake and Azure, and shipped dashboards that cut manual reporting by 60%.

Today I combine that enterprise rigor with AI-native tools — Claude, n8n, Python — to build automation systems for businesses that need results, not slide decks. From intelligent chatbots to complete workflow engines, I build what most consultants only recommend.
