About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Designs, builds, and deploys production automations that integrate with internal APIs and third-party operational systems (browser-based UI automations where APIs are not available)
Builds and maintains step-level logging, alerting, and observability so automation failures, skips, and anomalies surface in real time rather than via downstream impact
Maintains, debugs, and enhances existing automations as operational requirements change and triages production incidents and resolve them within the internal fix path
Partners with operations stakeholders to translate process requirements into technical specifications, validates automation outputs during parallel-run periods, and defines acceptance criteria
Establishes and documents engineering standards for automation development, logging conventions, error handling patterns, configuration management, deployment processes
Evaluates, selects, and integrates tooling (including UI automation frameworks, observability platforms, and orchestration systems) that support the long-term automation roadmap
Documents automation logic, operational runbooks, and architectural decisions so that knowledge transfers cleanly across the engineering team
