Telecom specialist, Red Seal electrician, sales enablement operator, and AI systems builder working at the intersection of communications technology, automation, CRM workflows, and practical field operations.
I build and support systems that connect technical infrastructure with real-world business needs. My background spans RF communications, low-voltage electrical systems, CRM implementation, sales operations, automation workflows, and applied AI development.
I am Matthew Schafer, commonly known as Matt or in the Amature Radio Space and online as VE7LTX.
My work combines technical problem-solving with customer-facing execution. I have experience in telecommunications, radio systems, electrical infrastructure, CRM systems, AI tooling, sales enablement, and operational process design.
I am especially interested in using AI to improve how people organize knowledge, automate repetitive work, troubleshoot systems, and make better decisions from messy real-world information.

- Capture and organize operational knowledge
- Assist with technical troubleshooting
- Improve follow-up and sales process consistency
- Support field teams with better documentation
- Connect CRM data, notes, files, and customer history
- Run locally or semi-locally where privacy and ownership matter
