MakeExpert for Modularization, Refactoring & Sub-Scenario Architecture

Description
We are looking for an experienced Make specialist to help restructure and refactor an existing automation setup. Our current Make scenarios have grown significantly over time and have become difficult to maintain. The goal is to redesign the architecture into clearly defined sub-scenarios, improve resiliency, and ensure long-term maintainability.

Scope of Work

  1. Refactor existing scenarios

    • Analyze the current scenario structure (multiple hooks triggering large, monolithic flows).

    • Split into modular and reusable sub-scenarios.

    • Introduce a systematic calling structure (e.g., chained webhooks, data-store–driven routing, or router-based orchestration).

  2. Improve resilience & error handling

    • Implement robust error paths, retries, and fallback logic.

    • Add logging, monitoring, and alerting where necessary.

    • Ensure idempotency for repeated webhook calls.

  3. Optimize complex JSON processing

    • Handle nested arrays and deep object structures.

    • Build reusable transformations, iterators, and mapping blueprints.

    • Ensure consistent data validation throughout the flow.

  4. Enhance maintainability

    • Introduce naming conventions and folder structures.

    • Build documentation inside Make (notes, module descriptions) and externally if required.

    • Propose best-practice guidelines for future scenario development.

Tech Stack & Modules Used
Candidates must be proficient with:

  • Brevo (Send Mail module + REST API calls)

  • Microsoft 365: OneDrive, Excel, Calendar modules

  • HTTP API (custom calls, webhook orchestration)

  • Advanced Make modules (Routers, Iterate, Array Aggregator, Data Store, Error Handlers)

Requirements

  • Proven track record working with large Make environments.

  • Deep understanding of nested JSON/array processing.

  • Ability to design scalable, modular automation architectures.

  • Highly structured, documentation-oriented approach.

  • Strong English communication skills.

Deliverables

  • A fully modularized scenario landscape with sub-scenarios.

  • Refactored and optimized logic for all webhook-based flows.

Additional Notes
Our automations are business-critical. Stability, clarity, and professional engineering discipline are essential. We expect clean refactoring, not only “patchwork fixes”.

Hello @Max16 , welcome to make.com community, I have worked and have experience with Make.com and l will love to collaborate with you on this you can schedule a call Here and you can checkout my upwork profile Here, for my pastworks and certifications

Hello @Max16, we are Certified Make Partners and would love to help you with your scenarios. Check your DMs for more information. :smiley:

Hi, Hi, I’m an experienced Make.com specialist and can help restructure and refactor your automation setup. I have a strong track record of working with large Make environments, optimizing complex JSON workflows, modularizing scenarios, and implementing robust error handling.

I can split your monolithic flows into reusable sub-scenarios, introduce systematic orchestration, and ensure your automations are resilient, maintainable, and documented for future development.

@Max16 We would love to assist with this.

This looks like a well-defined refactoring project, and it’s exactly the kind of work we do every day.

We’re Make Gold Partners with deep experience building secure, scalable automations on Make.

One thing that sets us apart from many other Gold or Platinum partners is that we’re not simply task-masters who just “do what we’re told.” Our role is to be your strategic consultants — guiding you with solid business advice on what you could, should, and shouldn’t look to automate. That way, you’re not just getting a build, you’re getting a partner who helps you avoid wasted time, unnecessary costs, and mis-steps in your automation journey. We’ll share advice and suggestions at every step — not just execution.

For work like this, we use our OpsMesh™ framework to guide the process:

  • OpsMap™ (Audit) — We start with a structured review of your entire automation footprint: scenario layout, webhook entry points, iterator density, error pathways, JSON structures, and modularity gaps.
  • OpsBuild™ (Build) — This is the refactor itself — breaking monolithic scenarios into clean sub-scenarios, introducing router-based flows, chaining webhooks appropriately, and putting in place solid naming, documentation, and error-handling patterns.
  • OpsCare™ (Maintain - if desired) — Ongoing support so the new architecture stays consistent and resilient as your business evolves.

Based on your description, your environment has reached the natural “breaking point” many teams hit — scenarios that have grown over time, become difficult to maintain, and now need to be re-engineered rather than patched. We’ve handled this exact situation for companies where Make is mission-critical, and the goal is always the same: long-term stability, clarity, and predictable behavior.

Everything you’re aiming for — modularization, webhook chaining, data validation, error resilience, structured logging, idempotency protection, and documentation — falls directly into how we architect large-scale automation systems.

We also thoroughly document everything that we do. I’m attaching a redacted sample of our documentation for review.

Please use this link to schedule a time with us:

Looking forward to diving in and helping you build something cleaner and more maintainable.

Thanks,
Jeff

Sample Make Scenario Documentation - Redacted - Outbound Calls_Redacted.pdf (96.0 KB)

@Max16 The main goal is a setup that is easier to reason about, safer to change, and stable under production load. My approach is to treat this as an architectural refactor rather than a few quick fixes.

I would map your current flows, design modular sub-scenarios in Make.com for each core function, implement structured error paths and logging, and standardize naming, documentation, and JSON handling so future changes stay predictable and testable.

  1. Roughly how many scenarios and webhook entry points are in scope today, and which 2 or 3 workflows are the highest priority for refactoring?

  2. What are your typical volumes for the busiest flows per day and per hour, and do you see any peak periods that we need to design around?

  3. Which parts of the current setup are most fragile right now, for example, timeouts, iterator overload, data store usage, Brevo or Microsoft 365 limits, or something else?

  4. How would you prefer the sub-scenario boundaries to be defined in practice by business process, by integration, or by technical function, such as enrichment, notifications, and logging?

  5. What level of documentation do you expect at the end: internal notes in Make.com only, or external artifacts such as architecture diagrams, runbooks, and change procedures?

  6. Do you have any constraints around using a staging workspace, acceptable downtime risk during cutover, or target budget and timeline that I should factor into the plan?

I’ll wait for your reply. Thanks!
