Airtable Process Automation Expert

Headquarters: Remote URL: https://www.toptal.com/ About the Role We're looking for an Airtable Process Automation Expert to design, build, and optimize workflow systems that eliminate manual busywork for growing teams. This is not a "set up a base" role — you'll be architecting end-to-end operational systems: automations, integrations, and process logic that fundamentally change how a business runs day to day. You'll work directly with clients to translate messy, manual processes into clean, scalable Airtable-based systems — often integrating with other tools in their stack. What You'll Do • Design and build custom Airtable bases, interfaces, and automations tailored to a client's specific operational workflows • Map existing manual processes and re-architect them into automated, self-maintaining systems • Build integrations between Airtable and third-party tools (Zapier, Make, Slack, Gmail, native APIs) to create seamless cross-platform workflows • Write and maintain Airtable scripting (JavaScript) for advanced automation logic beyond native no-code capabilities • Design relational data structures and table architectu
