# Maksym Liutsko
AI automation engineer and product builder. I design and ship AI-integrated products, autonomous agents and end-to-end automation — co-founder & CTO of XecSuite and co-founder of Apex Mind Automation. I architect agentic systems (multi-agent orchestration, LLM assistants, automated content and data pipelines) across OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini and self-hosted open-source models, plus media tools like ElevenLabs, HeyGen and Kling AI. It's all backed by 12+ years of front-end engineering (React, TypeScript, Tailwind) and Adobe Certified Expert–level Adobe Commerce experience. Shipped so far: an autonomous financial-news platform, an AI HR assistant, document-processing bots and a private family AI agent.

XecSuite — AI Operating Layer for 3PLs
The operating layer cross-border (Canada–US) logistics companies run on. A tenant-private company-memory core plus configurable modules — CRM, marketing, meeting intelligence, freight analysis, ops/SOP and an executive assistant — run by a governed, approval-gated agent workforce with hybrid model routing (private models for routine work, frontier models for high-stakes reasoning). Built and awarded at a Startup Weekend; now live.
NewsStocks.live — Autonomous Financial-News Platform
A fully automated Next.js news platform. A cron pipeline pulls S&P 500 news, and GPT-4o-mini generates per-article summaries plus comprehensive market analysis (direction, confidence, key drivers, risk, sector outlooks, strategy). Images via a Pexels→DALL·E pipeline to Cloudinary, a Telegram bot broadcasts daily analysis, and the system auto-produces social posts and short-form videos for TikTok, YouTube, Instagram & Facebook. Admin dashboard, role-based auth, PIPEDA/CASL-compliant.
Apex Mind Automation — Automation Studio
My automation studio: I design custom automations, AI agents and web apps for businesses — from lead handling and content pipelines to full multi-agent systems. The brand system pairs a GSAP + Lenis marketing site with Node generators that produce branded docs, decks and one-pagers automatically. (Public site launching soon.)
AI HR Assistant
End-to-end recruitment automation (Make.com / n8n + LLMs): answers candidate questions on social media, books interviews, parses and structures résumés, and shortlists candidates automatically.
Document & Image Archive Bot
A Telegram bot that ingests photos and documents, extracts and analyzes their text, files structured records into Google Docs and a database, and replies with a link and a short summary.
Self-Hosted Family AI Agent
A private home assistant running on open-source LLMs — searches our photo and document archive, plans schedules (school activities, meals), analyzes data (calories, recipes), and generates images and code, with no subscriptions or per-token cost.
Dewy — AI Plant-Care PWA
AI-guided plant rescue and care as a Next.js PWA (wrapped for iOS & Android via Capacitor). Smart Scan diagnoses plants against Google Gemini, with care logging, reminders, weather alerts and XP/badges.
AI Talking Avatar Portfolio
This site — a real-time 3D avatar you can talk to, built with React Three Fiber and the OpenAI Realtime API, with voice-driven navigation, gestures and live lip-sync.
E-commerce — Magento / Adobe Commerce
Six+ years building and supporting Magento 2 (Adobe Commerce) storefronts for retail brands across Canada, NZ and Australia — theme development, ongoing support, deep customization, custom checkout flows, and full from-scratch builds. Built with Knockout.js, jQuery, LESS/SASS and Gulp/Grunt pipelines, plus custom UI components and Figma-to-theme conversion.
