Role overview
A retail group in Saudi Arabia is hiring an AI Automation Engineer to design, develop, deploy, and support AI, RPA, and intelligent automation solutions.
The role aims to streamline business processes and improve operational efficiency across the organization.
RPA and intelligent automation
- Deliver RPA initiatives through assessment, design, development, testing, deployment, hypercare, and production support.
- Build attended and unattended automations and translate process maps and SOPs into workflows, reusable components, exception logic, and schedules.
- Integrate bots with enterprise applications, ERP systems, APIs, databases, email, files, and OCR/document processing.
- Design reliable controls and monitor processing rates, exceptions, cycle times, and capacity benefits.
AI automation and operations
- Combine RPA with AI/ML, OCR, document intelligence, classification, extraction, LLMs, and decision services.
- Build Python services, APIs, integration components, lightweight applications, and human-in-the-loop workflows.
- Implement automated testing, version control, CI/CD, monitoring, logging, alerting, dashboards, schedules, and operational runbooks.
- Resolve production incidents, conduct root-cause analysis, and ensure security, access, audit, and data protection controls.
Process and collaboration
- Assess process feasibility, stability, exceptions, data, risks, and business benefits; redesign workflows where appropriate.
- Document current and future process flows, requirements, exceptions, dependencies, controls, and acceptance criteria; help prioritize the automation backlog.
- Partner with business, technology, data, security, and vendor teams; provide documentation and knowledge transfer and contribute to reusable standards and libraries.
Required qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Automation, Industrial Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, or a related discipline.
- 4+ years of relevant software development, automation, RPA engineering, or intelligent automation experience, with production deployments.
- Hands-on development with at least one major RPA platform, such as UiPath, Microsoft Power Automate, Automation Anywhere, or equivalent.
- Strong Python skills and experience building APIs, integrations, scripts, utilities, or production services.
- Experience integrating with applications, databases, files, email, ERP systems, REST APIs, and authentication mechanisms.
- Knowledge of OCR/document intelligence, orchestration, queues, schedulers, credential management, exception handling, monitoring, and recovery.
- Working knowledge of AI/ML and GenAI, including practical LLM or ML service integration.
- Experience with Git/version control, CI/CD, automated testing, logging, monitoring, and production support.
- Strong analytical and process-mapping skills; ability to work independently, troubleshoot complex issues, and own automation outcomes.
Advantageous experience
- Experience with UiPath, Microsoft Power Platform, cloud platforms, or relevant automation certifications is an advantage.
- Finance process automation is highly desirable; retail, grocery, supply chain, or high-volume transactional experience is an advantage.
Success measures
Deliver reliable, scalable automations meeting agreed quality, processing, cycle-time, and productivity targets.
Maintain production bots with effective monitoring, exception handling, auditability, and support ownership.
Deliver measurable business benefits beyond proofs of concept and create reusable components that accelerate future delivery.
Integrate RPA into the broader AI and technology architecture rather than leaving it as isolated scripts.
Benefits
- The posting mentions an attractive salary and benefits without specifying amounts or payment cadence.
