About The Position

As part of our commitment to supporting business growth through scalable automation solutions and fostering a culture of digital innovation, we are seeking an Automation Engineer to lead the transformation of operational workflows across the organization. This role will be pivotal in shaping the company’s automation capabilities by designing and implementing intelligent process automation strategies, integrating advanced RPA and AI agent technologies, and enhancing the efficiency and adaptability of core business processes. This position offers a unique opportunity to collaborate with business leaders to design, develop, and deploy an integrated automation strategy that blends the precision of robotic process automation (RPA) with the adaptability of AI-powered agents. The role focuses on creating intelligent automation solutions that not only streamline and optimize repetitive, rule-based tasks but also incorporate AI agents capable of cognitive decision-making, learning, and real-time adaptation where applicable. A key objective is to deliver robust, scalable automation workflows that enhance process efficiency, accuracy, and responsiveness to dynamic business needs. The ideal candidate will bring a strong technical foundation in both RPA platforms and have experience with AI agent technologies, along with a customer-centric approach to delivering innovative solutions. Success in this role requires hands-on engineering skills, deep collaboration with stakeholders, and a passion for fostering continuous improvement through hybrid intelligent automation that can self-optimize and evolve. This hybrid approach positions the automation engineer as a leader in driving digital transformation by seamlessly integrating rule-based bots with intelligent agents to achieve unprecedented operational efficiency and innovation.
