Summary I am seeking an experienced automation developer to build a fully automated SMS reminder system for my business. This is a one-time setup — I want a clean, stable workflow I can run and manage independently after it’s built. Users will submit a list of tasks or routines they need reminders for. The system should send automated text reminders at set intervals until the user replies with a specific keyword indicating completion. This will function as a lightweight “virtual assistant” that helps people stay organized with friendly, persistent reminders. I need someone who has built SMS workflows, keyword-triggered logic, or reminder/automation systems before. Core Features Needed • Automated SMS messaging using Twilio, TextMagic, or similar • Conditional logic that repeats reminders until user replies with a completion keyword • Ability to create multiple unique reminder flows based on user input • Dashboard or simple interface for viewing/editing reminder automations • Fail-safe flows, error handling, and clean organization • Documentation so I can manage and update the system myself Required Skills (Applicants Must Have All): SMS & Messaging Platforms • Twilio (primary) • SMS API Integration • TextMagic / Vonage / Plivo (optional but useful) Automation Platforms • Zapier • Make (Integromat) • No-code / low-code workflow design • Conditional logic + multi-step automation building Backend / API Knowledge • Webhooks • REST API Integration • Python or JavaScript/Node.js (for custom logic if needed) • Serverless functions (AWS Lambda or similar — optional) Database / Task-Handling • Airtable • Google Sheets Automation • Data structuring for user submissions Messaging Logic / Chatbot Behavior • Keyword-triggered workflows • Task completion triggers • State management for user interactions • SMS reminder or chatbot-style systems Professional Skills • Technical documentation • Clean system architecture • Ability to explain how to manage the system after handoff If you do not have experience with SMS automation or keyword-triggered flows, please do not apply. Deliverables • Fully functioning automated SMS reminder system • Clean and organized automation workflow • Dashboard or simple management interface • Written documentation + a short walkthrough video or call • Recommendations on minimizing monthly tool/SMS costs Budget Open to a fixed price based on your experience. When applying, please include: • Estimated cost • Estimated timeline • Tools/platforms you plan to use and why • Links/screenshots of similar SMS or automation systems you’ve built Ideal Candidate • Has built SMS assistants, reminder systems, or automation-heavy workflows • Understands Twilio deeply (or similar APIs) • Works cleanly, communicates clearly, and builds systems that last • Can create something stable that I can run without future help
