About The Position

Awardco is reimagining the workplace to be more rewarding, supportive, and fun for everyone.

As our AI & Automation Engineer, you will be the primary architect and administrator of our enterprise AI ecosystem. Your mission is to turn our fragmented company data into a unified, actionable knowledge base. You won’t just be "connecting apps"—you will be building custom AI agents, automating cross-functional workflows, and partnering with department heads to ensure AI is solving real-world business problems.

• Search & Data Architecture: Experience with enterprise search, indexing, or knowledge management systems.
• Automation Background: Proficiency in low-code/no-code automation tools or scripting (Python/Node.js) to bridge gaps between platforms.
• Experience: 2-5 years of experience working with AI and automation.
• The "Translator" Ability: You can take a complex request from a non-technical Marketing manager and translate it into a technical AI prompt or workflow.
• Problem-First Mindset: You don't just implement tools; you look for the friction in a process and solve it.
• Agility: You’re comfortable in the fast-moving AI space where features and best practices change weekly.
