WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR:
You love finding the boring, repetitive bit of a process and making it disappear. You'll sit with a team in Finance, HR, Operations or Customer Success, understand how they really work, and build something that saves them hours and makes their work more accurate.
You're practical. You know when a simple workflow is the right answer and when AI is worth the effort. You build with care: clear approvals, proper error handling and a human always in control of the important decisions.
THE ROLE:
Find and Shape the Opportunities

Choose the right approach for each process, whether that's a straightforward workflow or AI
Score opportunities on benefit, complexity and risk, and set a baseline so you can prove the impact
Build and Connect
Build, test and deploy end-to-end workflows using automation platforms, APIs and LLM agents
Extract and validate information from emails, PDFs, invoices and contracts
Connect cloud business systems with secure, reliable data flows
Keep Humans in Control
Build in approvals, permissions, exception handling and clear handoffs to business users
Test workflows and AI output quality before anything goes live
Add logging, alerts and recovery steps so automations can be supported properly
Run and Improve
Support live automations, investigate failures and manage changes to APIs and systems
Document every workflow, and make sure it meets our security, privacy and access rules
Work with the AI / ML Engineer on shared components
