How are modern AI & workflow automations typically structured using Google Apps Script? (Looking for architectural patterns)
Hi everyone,
I am modernizing the operations for a traditional real estate agency by replacing manual paper processes with Google Workspace.
So far, I’ve built a central Google Master Calendar, a Google Docs/Drive office portal for form downloads, and structured Google Sheets for lead tracking. I am now looking to expand into deeper workflow and AI automations using Google Apps Script (GAS).
Coming from an operations background rather than computer science, I’d love to learn how experienced developers structure end-to-end automation pipelines using GAS.
Thx
Genuine question: how do you measure someone for an AI automation workflow role with no real experience?
Is it based on:
• A fresh certification? • Confidence over demonstrated output? • The right keywords on a resume?
Because I’ve seen what happens when AI ops roles go to the wrong people. The team carries the gap. Quietly. For months.
Experience isn’t just about knowing the tools. It’s knowing what breaks, why it breaks, and how to fix it without burning down the workflow.
What are you seeing in your hiring process?
