Bottleneck thinking
We start from where time and money leak — leads, quotes, CRM, documents — not from a technology label.
Automation & intelligence delivery
Pilots through to orchestrated programmes — integrations, guardrails, and reporting your leadership can trust.
Retainers & tuning
Monitoring, model and workflow adjustments, and new data sources after pilots land — paced to your operations.
Operational Data & AI, done with clarity
Yarli Data is a Sydney-based studio helping SMEs turn messy operations into measured automation — internal knowledge systems, CRM signals, quoting, documents, and ERP-connected workflows. You work directly with senior practitioners who own delivery, not a revolving cast of account managers.
- Discovery that names systems, data, and ROI
- Pilots first, then scale when KPIs prove out
- Integrations across CRM, finance, and comms
- Retainers for monitoring and iteration
Our work process
How we take an operational AI engagement from first conversation to measured pilot — and expand when the value is clear.
Discover & quantify
Bottlenecks, systems, data quality, and compliance captured in a shared plan.
Design the pilot
Workflows, integrations, and acceptance tests so everyone sees behaviour before rollout widens.
Build & integrate
Incremental releases, logging, guardrails, and connections to CRM, finance, and messaging.
Measure & support
KPIs in production, enablement, monitoring, and a roadmap for the next workflow.
A few words about us
Who you work with
Sydney-based delivery with senior engineering discipline — we work closely with owners and operations teams on data, automation, and integrations, and bring in trusted partners when the scope needs extra depth.
Principal consultant · Founder
Naresh Kumar
I’m the principal consultant behind Yarli Data. My background is hands-on Web Platforms, CMS (WordPress), NextJS, React, Tailwind, Typescript, Cloud, DevOps, and data platforms — spanning AWS and Azure, infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD, and secure delivery — with 20+ years leading engineering work, mentoring small teams, and owning outcomes from design through operations.
Through Yarli Data (since September 2021) I help Australian organisations with websites, web applications, integrations, and automation — and increasingly with operational Data & AI (lead systems, CRM intelligence, documents, ERP signals) — applying the same rigour we use on large-scale platforms to shipping, governance, and measurable outcomes.
In parallel, recent enterprise delivery has included NSW Government programmes — Cloud and Data platforms (contract work spanning AWS analytics engineering, data strategy and ingestion design) and large-scale citizen-facing digital services, where I served as Principal Data Engineer / Technical Lead on an enterprise AWS data platform, CDC-based pipelines, and team uplift. I’ve also shipped data platform engineering for a major Australian bank. Earlier roles span global consulting, telecommunications, enterprise software and integration partners, and leadership building a higher-education web portal with hybrid hosting and scalable delivery — plus automation-first platforms across hybrid infrastructure.
I’m Sydney based Consultant, with a Graduate Certificate in Artificial Intelligence (Deakin University), a Bachelor of Science, and a postgraduate diploma in systems management — plus AWS Certified Solutions Architect and related cloud training. Expect straightforward communication, realistic timelines, and delivery you can operate with confidence.
How we extend the team
For specialist UX, brand design, or niche integrations we collaborate with vetted partners so you get senior oversight without bloating the core team. If something on this page should be tightened for your public story — titles, dates, or emphasis — send edits and we’ll align it.
