About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Build automation solutions end-to-end across the business: integrations, data pipelines, workflow automation, and scripting
Partner with stakeholders to identify and evaluate automation opportunities, exercising judgment on when AI is the right tool versus when a traditional integration, script, or workflow change will serve better
Own integrations and data movement between systems, SharePoint, SQL, file shares, documents, including ingestion, transformation, and keeping downstream data fresh
Build AI features where they add real value: prompt design, RAG pipelines (chunking, embedding, indexing into our vector database), and LLM integrations (OpenAI, Anthropic, and others as we evaluate)
Collaborate with our C#/.NET and Angular ERP codebase alongside the existing dev team — feature work, bug fixes, code review, the usual full-stack rhythm
Stand up and maintain containerized services — including self-hosted components like Qdrant for vector storage — running on our Azure platform
Collaborate with consultants brought in for specialized depth, and absorb knowledge from those engagements so we can reduce consulting spend over time
Prototype quickly to validate automation ideas before committing to full builds
