Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. The hiring company is confidential. The Senior Automation Engineer will design, build, and own automation solutions supporting investment operations, combining RPA delivery, AI integration, and production engineering. The role also focuses on production stability, business value, and collaboration with product owners and business units.

Responsibilities

• Analyze, design, develop, and deploy end-to-end automation solutions with a strong emphasis on business value, cost savings, and operational efficiency across the investment workflows
• Serve as the primary technical owner for production automation stability — proactively monitoring, triaging, and resolving incidents to maintain zero-defect delivery posture across all live bots
• Evaluate automation requests and emerging AI capabilities (including LLM agents and agentic frameworks) to determine the optimal solution approach — knowing when RPA, AI, or a hybrid model is the right fit
• Build and maintain React-based front-end interfaces that surface automation outputs, operational dashboards, and AI-powered workflow tools for business users and stakeholders
• Integrate LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Azure OpenAI) and AI-native patterns — including RAG pipelines, function calling, and streaming interfaces — into automation and operational tooling where applicable
• Collaborate with the Product Owner during PI planning and sprint ceremonies to translate business requirements into well-scoped, deliverable automation epics and user stories
• Partner with business units to gather requirements, assess automation opportunities, and design workflows that meet each team's operational and regulatory needs
• Document automation architecture, design decisions, and process flows using Arc42 or equivalent frameworks to ensure maintainability and knowledge continuity
• Provide technical mentorship to junior and mid-level engineers on the squad, establishing code quality standards, review practices, and AI integration patterns
• Support the evaluation and adoption of emerging automation and AI tooling — including UiPath Autopilot, Agentic workflow frameworks, and Snowflake-integrated data pipelines
• Act as a liaison and represent automation capabilities and interests when interacting and collaborating with Intelligent Automation teams across the enterprise

Skills

• Production-level RPA design and delivery
• React 18+, TypeScript, component architecture, integration with REST/API backends
• Must be fully available for core EST business hours and sprint/PI ceremonies
• Process assessment, ROI/cost-saving analysis, solution design, and implementation planning
• Monitoring, incident triage, root cause analysis, and remediation of live automation environments
• Hands-on experience with OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, or Anthropic APIs; RAG pipelines, function calling, streaming UX patterns
• Active participation in PI planning, sprint ceremonies, and backlog refinement; Jira proficiency
• UiPath
• React
• TypeScript
• LLM / AI APIs
• RPA Architecture
• REST APIs
• Github Actions / CI-CD
• Jira
• You understand both RPA and AI deeply enough to make principled decisions about when each is the right tool — and when neither is. You can push back with data and propose alternatives
• You don't consider a bot "done" at deployment. You monitor it, catch failures before users do, and drive long-term stability as seriously as new delivery
• You measure success in hours saved, error rates eliminated, and cost avoided — not lines of code written. You partner with business stakeholders to size and validate impact
• You're actively exploring where LLM agents, RAG, and agentic frameworks fit into automation pipelines — and you're excited to help get there responsibly
• You can translate technical tradeoffs into plain language for business stakeholders, compliance teams, and leadership — and write documentation that outlasts your tenure
• Prior work in financial services, healthcare, or other regulated environments
• Data querying, pipeline integration, and analytics workflows
• Workflow configuration, API integration, or administration experience
• Scripting and custom component development within automation pipelines
• Arc42, design specs, API contracts, and operational runbooks
• UiPath certifications preferred (UiARD or equivalent)
• Snowflake
• Python
• C#
• Power BI
• SharePoint
• RAG Pipelines
• Azure OpenAI
• SAFe Agile

Benefits

• Remote work (EST time zone required)
