Job Overview

We re hiring an

Automation Architect

to design and govern end-to-end automation patterns across APIs, workflows, and human-in-the-loop (HITL) actions. You ll define the architecture for safe, auditable automation-spanning orchestration engines, connector/adapters, policy-as-code guardrails, and reliability/observability. The ideal candidate blends integration engineering, workflow/RPA expertise, and platform goverce to deliver secure, resilient, and cost-effective automations at scale.

Key Responsibilities

  • Automation Architecture & Roadmap:

    Define target architecture for orchestrated workflows (API, event-driven, and scheduled); create reference patterns for approvals, rollbacks, retries, and idempotency.
  • HITL & Safety Controls:

    Design gated action flows (draft approve execute) with policy-as-code, entitlement checks (role/row/column), and auditable decision trails.
  • Connector/Adapter Strategy:

    Standardize typed I/O contracts and error taxonomies for systems of record (e.g., ticketing, document services, data platforms, in-silico models); implement backoff/rate-limit handling and circuit breakers.
  • Workflow & RPA Enablement:

    Select and configure workflow/RPA/iPaaS platforms (e.g., Camunda/Temporal/Airflow, UiPath/Power Automate, MuleSoft/Boomi); publish reusable blueprints and developer guardrails.
  • Reliability & Observability:

    Establish SLOs and error budgets; implement tracing/logging/metrics (OpenTelemetry or equivalent); build dashboards for latency, success rate, and cost-per-automation.
  • Security & Compliance:

    Embed SSO/OIDC, secret management, data minimization, and audit logging; partner with security on threat models (injection, exfiltration, impersonation).
  • Cost & Performance Goverce:

    Define budgets, caching and queuing strategies, and autoscaling policies; monitor per-workflow spend and P50/P95 latency targets.
  • Delivery Leadership:

    Review designs/PRs, mentor engineers, and lead incident/post-mortem practices; maintain decision records and change-control gates across environments.

Required Skills

  • Automation & Workflow Platforms:

    Hands-on with one or more: Camunda/Temporal/Airflow, UiPath/Power Automate/Automation Anywhere, or iPaaS (MuleSoft/Boomi).
  • Integration Engineering:

    Strong API design and integration patterns (REST/gRPC, webhooks, event sourcing); message queues/streams (SQS/SNS, Pub/Sub, Kafka, RabbitMQ).
  • Reliability Engineering:

    Retries/backoff/idempotency, dead-letter queues, circuit breakers, bulkheads; performance tuning and capacity planning.
  • Security-by-Design:

    SSO/OIDC, OAuth2, service accounts, secrets management (vaults/KMS), least-privilege RBAC/ABAC, audit logging.
  • Observability:

    Tracing/metrics/logging standards, correlation IDs, run diagnostics, and actionable dashboards; SLO/error-budget management.
  • DevOps & Platform:

    IaC (Terraform/CloudFormation), CI/CD (pipelines, artifact/versioning), environment promotion and release strategies (blue/green, canary).
  • Programming Proficiency:

    One or more of

    Python

    ,

    TypeScript/Node.js

    for building reference implementations and SDKs.
  • Stakeholder Leadership:

    Clear communication, requirements elicitation, and cross-team alignment; ability to mentor and set engineering guardrails.

Good to Have Skills

  • LLM/Agentic Patterns:

    Designing safe tool-use flows, prompt/response guardrails, and evaluation hooks for AI-initiated actions.
  • Knowledge & Data:

    Familiarity with vector/graph stores, data lineage/provece, and policy-as-code over data access.
  • UX for Approvals:

    Designing clear approval prompts, rationale views, and reversible actions for HITL experiences.
This role suits a hands-on architect who can codify best-practice automation patterns, balance safety with speed, and scale reliable integrations across complex enterprise ecosystems.
