MacAdam Stafford, Data & Automation, Presales @ Motorola Solutions

About

I'm a senior studying Information Science at MSU (Class of 2027), focused on data analytics and technical solutions. Outside of class I've built real things: a referral-marketing business with 1,300+ completed referrals, the automation and AI agent system that runs it, a physical product I'm taking from concept toward manufacturing, and the web infrastructure I run it all on.

I started KIRO as a concept and worked with two contract mechanical engineers to get from concept to CNC-machined aluminum parts. It is a modular MagSafe accessory system. Still in development.

I'm a Presales COE Co-op on the Center of Excellence team at Motorola Solutions, building pricing tools, Salesforce data analyses, Looker Studio dashboards, and seller enablement for a Fortune 500 presales organization. It's the kind of work I want to keep doing, where the analytics actually feed a customer conversation. Long-term I'm aiming at presales and sales engineering.

What I've Built

Real systems I built and still run.

Hardware · Product

KIRO (in progress)

A modular MagSafe accessory system in CNC-machined aluminum. I scoped the product and worked with two contract mechanical engineers to get from concept to aluminum parts. Product development is still in progress.

Web · SEO · Analytics

Referral Content Sites

Four content sites (380+ pages) built with Python static-site generators, JSON-LD structured data, GA4 and Search Console tracking, IndexNow, and automated monthly rebuilds. 14,000+ Google search clicks in the 90 days ending Oct 2026.

Automation · Analytics

AI Operations Platform

A 24/7 multi-agent system across a cloud Linux server and a Mac Studio serving a local 27B-parameter language model, with one priority job queue, an always-on research worker, and a human approval inbox: nothing goes out without my sign-off. A Next.js Mission Control dashboard sits on top: 14 live data feeds, 80+ scheduled jobs, and a health sweep every 5 minutes that restarts failed services.

Infrastructure · DevOps

Self-Hosted Infrastructure

I run the servers behind the four content sites myself on a Linux VPS: Caddy with automatic HTTPS, fail2ban, a private Tailscale network for internal tools, nightly offsite backups, and cron and systemd scheduling. Self-taught across Linux, DNS, TLS, networking, and deployment.

Experience

Work History

May 2026 – Present

Motorola Solutions

Presales COE Co-op

Presales COE Co-op since Aug 2026 (intern May to Aug 2026). Built and deployed a budgetary pricing app (AppSheet front end, Google Apps Script engine) that turns a live master price list into PDF estimates, and wrote the seller quick-start guide for rollout. Rebuilt a quote comparison tool so every pricing change is computed in code and reconciles to the dollar, with AI limited to an optional written summary. Designed a Looker Studio dashboard that consolidated three overlapping pricing tools into one view for leadership; my manager signed off on it and escalated it to senior leadership. Analyzed 13,000+ Salesforce records and delivered a median-based turnaround analysis to presales leadership. Replaced a 16-sheet manual tracker with one auto-refreshing view on a live Salesforce feed of 32,000+ records, and led phase one of a three-tool pricing consolidation that produced a 7,000+ row reconciled master price list.

Current

Dec 2024 – Present

Self-Employed

Founder and Automation Developer

Built and run a referral-marketing business that connects people with health-program referral offers through content sites and automated follow-up: 1,300+ completed referrals since launch. I built the lead-capture forms and a Python routing service that applies eligibility rules, logs every click, and sends alerts and follow-up email, and I handle the content, SEO, and analytics myself.
