POSITION SUMMARY:

Under limited direction, the Senior Automation Developer will design and build modern automations across multiple platforms, connect on-prem systems with cloud services, and start to embed AI/agentic capabilities into how we work.

This role will be responsible for taking manual, error-prone processes and turning them into secure, resilient, and observable automations using a mix of tools: RPA, low-code/no-code automation, iPaaS, APIs, and cloud functions (e.g., AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, GCP Cloud Functions). Experience integrating LLM / AI agents into workflows is a major plus.

This role is hands-on, but also highly collaborative and will partner with business stakeholders, architects, security, and data teams to prioritize opportunities, implement solutions, and establish automation standards and best practices.

ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS:

Automation Design & Development

• Works with business stakeholders to identify, qualify, and prioritize automation opportunities across the organization.
• Designs and implements end-to-end workflows using multiple automation platforms (e.g., Microsoft Power Automate / Power Platform, UiPath, Automation Anywhere, n8n, Make/Zapier, ServiceNow, or similar).
• Builds and deploys cloud-based automations using services such as AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, GCP Cloud Functions, event buses, and queues.
• Develops integrations using REST/JSON APIs, webhooks, and message queues to connect core systems (e.g., core banking, digital banking, LOS, CRM, HR, and other SaaS platforms).
• Implements robust error handling, retries, logging, and monitoring to ensure automations are reliable and supportable in production.
• Experiments with and, where appropriate, implements AI-powered automations (e.g., LLM-based agents that classify requests, summarize data, draft responses, or orchestrate next steps).
• Integrates AI/LLM services (e.g., Azure OpenAI, OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, or similar) into existing workflows to improve accuracy, speed, or member/employee experience.
• Help define guardrails and patterns for the safe and compliant use of AI within automation workflows (prompt design, redaction, input/output validation).

Engineering Excellence & Governance

• Owns the full automation lifecycle: discovery, design, development, testing, deployment, documentation, and support.
• Maintains source control, branching, and deployment pipelines (e.g., Git, Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or similar) for automation assets and related code.
• Defines and upholds standards, reusable components, and best practices for automation design, naming, security, and observability.
• Partners closely with Information Security, Risk, and Compliance to ensure automations meet security, privacy, audit, and regulatory requirements.
• Works with operations and help desk teams to transition automations into steady-state support, including runbooks, alerts, and SLAs.

Collaboration & Stakeholder Management

• Translates business problems into clear technical requirements and solution designs that balance speed, maintainability, and risk.
• Facilitate workshops and process walkthroughs to map current-state workflows and design future-state automations.
• Communicates progress, risks, and outcomes clearly to technical and non-technical audiences, including leadership.
• Mentor's junior developers and power users; it helps build an automation-minded culture across the organization.

QUALIFICATIONS:

Experience / Training / Education:

• 5+ years of hands-on experience in automation / integration development (RPA, low-code, or iPaaS), including designing and deploying production workflows.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
• Professional experience with at least two of the following categories of tools:
  • RPA platforms (e.g., UiPath, Automation Anywhere, Blue Prism, Power Automate Desktop)
  • Low-code / workflow automation (e.g., Power Automate, ServiceNow, Salesforce Flow, Nintex)
  • iPaaS / orchestration (e.g., MuleSoft, Boomi, n8n, Make, Zapier)
• Strong experience building cloud-native integrations and automations using:
  • Cloud functions (AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, or GCP Cloud Functions)
  • REST APIs, OAuth2/OIDC, webhooks, and JSON
  • Basic cloud services (e.g., storage, queues, event buses, secrets management).
• Experience working with relational databases and SQL for querying and transforming data.
• Experience using Git or similar version control and comfort working in a CI/CD environment.
• Experience integrating LLM / AI services (e.g., Azure OpenAI, OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, Gemini, etc.) into applications or automations preferred.
• Prior work in financial services, banking, or highly regulated environments, with exposure to audit, risk, and compliance requirements preferred.
