About the Role
We're hiring our first AI Automation Specialist to lead applied AI across the company. This is a hands-on, cross-functional role: you'll sit with teams in Sales, Operations, Finance, and beyond, find the work that drains their time, and replace it with reliable AI-powered workflows.
This is an implementation and ownership role, not a research one. You won't be training models or doing data science — you'll be composing existing AI tools, APIs, and no-code/low-code platforms into workflows that run in production, and you'll own them once they're live. If you like turning "we waste ten hours a week on this" into something that just works, this is your role.
We’re looking for someone long-term, at least a year commitment.
Responsibilities
Assess each department's workflows to identify high-value opportunities for AI automation (repetitive, multi-step, or judgment-assisted tasks).
Design and prototype agentic workflows (multi-step AI agents, tool integrations, approval/human-in-the-loop checkpoints) tailored to each department's needs.
Act as the internal point of contact between departments for ai transformation
Select and configure the right tools/platforms (e.g., Claude Cowork, MCP connectors) for each use case
Monitor deployed workflows for performance, drift, and failure modes, and iterate or retire workflows that underperform.
Track adoption metrics per department and report progress to leadership.
Requirements
Experience in process automation with AI, systems integration, business-process optimization, or a closely related field.
Ability to communicate across both technical and non-technical teams.
Strong process-mapping and business-analysis skills — the ability to translate a business problem into a working, monitored automation.
An ownership mindset: you care about reliability, edge cases, and proving impact — not just shipping a demo.
Hands-on experience with workflow automation platforms — any of n8n, Make, Zapier, or Power Automate.
Comfort with APIs, webhooks, and JSON, plus the ability to write light scripts (Python or JavaScript) when a no-code tool hits its ceiling.
English level: Upper-Intermediate.
*This is an applied automation role. Machine learning, model training, algorithm development, and data science are not part of this position.
What We Offer
Real ownership from day one — you'll define how AI works across the whole company, not just execute someone else's plan.
Direct impact and visibility — your work touches every department and is reported to leadership.
Modern tooling and autonomy to choose the right platforms for the job.
