AI Automation Engineer

About the Role We are looking for AI Automation Engineers to help design and deploy intelligent systems that streamline how work gets done across the company. Your role will be to understand existing business processes, identify opportunities to improve them using modern AI tools, and build reliable automated workflows powered by large language models and agent-based systems. You will work across teams to reduce manual effort in repetitive tasks, improve operational efficiency, and enable people to focus on higher-value work. This role sits at the intersection of operations, product, and engineering, and is ideal for someone who enjoys solving real-world problems using practical technology. What You’ll DoAnalyse business workflows Work with teams across the organisation to understand how key processes currently operate and identify opportunities where automation or AI assistance can improve speed, accuracy, or scalability. Design AI-powered workflows Break complex processes into structured steps and design agent-based systems that can execute parts of those workflows. Build and deploy automation Implement solutions using modern AI and automation tooling, integrating internal systems and external APIs to create end-to-end workflows. Ensure reliability Make systems robust by adding monitoring, validation, retry logic, and human review points where appropriate. Measure impact Track the effectiveness of the systems you build, including improvements in speed, throughput, and operational efficiency. Example Projects Examples of the kinds of systems you might build include: AI-assisted customer support triage and response drafting Automated document or invoice processing workflows Internal reporting agents that generate weekly summaries Sales research assistants that prepare account briefings Marketing workflow automation and campaign reporting P.S. Yes, this Job Description was written by AI. That is the point. Skills and Experience We are looking for practical builders who enjoy solving messy real-world problems with cutting edge agentic technology. You may come from backgrounds such as automation engineering, technical operations, internal tooling, startups, or AI prototyping. Strong candidates will have experience with some combination of: Working with APIs and system integrations Using large language model APIs (e.g. Claude, OpenAI, Gemini) Workflow automation tools such as n8n, Zapier, or Make Scripting or programming (commonly Python or TypeScript) Designing structured workflows or automation systems Debugging and improving automated processes You do not need deep academic AI or machine learning experience. We value practical experience building systems that work. How You Work The best candidates for this role tend to: enjoy experimenting with new AI tools and technologies approach problems systematically by breaking them into steps build and iterate quickly focus on reliable, practical solutions rather than theoretical ones take ownership of projects from idea through to deployment What Success Looks Like In this role you will help build a growing set of AI-powered systems that make everyday work faster, simpler, and more scalable for the human Ometrians. Over time you will create a library of reusable agentic components which teams across the company will leverage. Why This Role Matters Advances in AI are creating new ways to redesign how work happens inside organisations. By combining modern AI models with well-designed workflows, it is now possible to automate many repetitive tasks and significantly increase operational efficiency, and the effectiveness of our human Ometrians. This role is about helping teams take advantage of those capabilities in a thoughtful, practical way. 30 Days Holiday Private Healthcare Enhance Company Pension Contribution Mental Health Support via Spill
