Overview

Creative Automation Pipeline is a queue-based system that automates creative asset generation, transformation, and packaging. It turns a repetitive workflow into something more reliable without making the outputs brittle.

Why it exists

Creative operations often repeat the same resizing, formatting, export, and delivery work, which is slow by hand and awkward to scale.

How it works

I built a pipeline prototype that accepts creative jobs, runs them through asynchronous stages, and outputs asset bundles with traceable status.

Built with

Node.js / TypeScript / Queues / FFmpeg / Cloud Storage

What I focused on

  • Tested queue-driven orchestration for multi-step creative processing.
  • Defined job payloads for repeatable asset generation.
  • Added failure handling for incomplete source files and malformed specs.
  • Checked where automation saved time and where review was still needed.
