Business Automation Engineer

As a Business Automation Engineer, you’ll partner with teams across the company to rethink and refactor how work gets done. You’ll find manual and repetitive processes and then design and build automations to improve the quality of work and day-to-day business life of our internal partners. We’re focused on deploying efficient and adaptable automations that actually solve problems.

As one of the first members of the team, you’ll help build the foundation for a scalable hub of automations and integrations, using both off-the-shelf products and custom code where appropriate. You’ll help shape the workflows that make our team an effective and reliable partner for bringing business processes into an automated, AI-augmented world. You’ll work closely with security and IT leadership from the beginning to ensure the team’s foundations and, therefore, the rest of the company’s internal automation efforts are secure, auditable, and built to last.

How You’ll Contribute

Partner with business stakeholder to understand workflows and triage high-impact automation opportunities.

Business, build, and deploy automations across various SaaS tooling, internal systems, and APIs.

Leverage AI and agentic patterns when it adds value to business operations workflows and recognize when simpler, more deterministic solutions are the better choice.

Build with a secure-by-default mindset, including the incorporation of access controls, secrets management, logging, and the proper handling of sensitive information.

Establish team patterns and culture, including documentation, testing, and ongoing operational maintenance.

Be willing to tinker, iterate, and improve existing systems as we gain more context and mastery over the business environment.
