Responsibilities
Partner with business functions to identify a small number of high-leverage workflows where automation can drive outsized impact, rather than spreading effort across many low-value tasks
Build and extend reusable automation workflows that connect internal tools and APIs, with a focus on supporting internal business operations
Maximize native features in 3rd party tools like Rippling, Salesforce, Slack, and/or Gitlab to improve efficiency and reduce the need for custom development
Enable internal self-serve tools and workflows for developers and business users alike, using established patterns and templates
Contribute to a growing automation platform by turning successful one-off solutions into reusable patterns that can be applied across teams with minimal incremental effort
Serve as the technical owner for cross-functional automation initiatives, bringing engineering rigor to internal tooling
Layer AI tools and copilots onto existing infrastructure to empower non-engineers to build, automate, and operate with confidence, establishing guardrails that ensure security, compliance, and maintainability at scale
Track and communicate the impact of automation efforts using practical metrics (e.g., time saved, cycle time reduction, error reduction), helping the organization understand what’s working and why
Help keep teams informed about available automations and self-serve capabilities through documentation, examples, and occasional enablement sessions
Qualification
Required
4+ years in automation engineering, systems engineering, internal tooling, or related technical roles with a strong focus on reducing manual effort
Experience building production-grade automation that interacts with real systems (APIs, webhooks, event-driven workflows), not just local scripts
Experience designing infrastructure-as-code and reusable automation patterns that scale across teams and tools
Confidently engaging directly with stakeholders to surface pain points, define success metrics, and deliver high-impact automation aligned to business priorities
Demonstrated ability to deliver usable, documented internal tooling with minimal overhead and long-term maintainability
Strong prioritization instincts; able to assess and balance competing needs using sound judgment to drive outcomes that maximize value and reduce operational drag
Proven ability to operate independently, navigating ambiguity, building cross-functional relationships, and self-prioritizing work without constant direction
Familiarity with tools or systems that can act on behalf of users (e.g., workflow engines, assistants, or API-driven automation)
