Automation & Integration Engineer (Remote)
About the Role
We’re building a scalable automation platform that streamlines how marketing, sales, recruiting, and operations work —eliminating manual steps, reducing cycle times, and improving data quality. We’re looking for an engineer who delivers resilient systems (not brittle scripts) and has a track record of solving real-world problems by automating processes, integrating systems, and measurably optimizing our teams’ and clients' time to delivery.
Responsibilities & Success Outcomes
- Own outcomes end-to-end: Translate cross-functional needs (marketing, sales, recruiting, operations) into reliable, scalable workflows—from discovery through rollout and iteration. Success in 90 days: Replace at least one high-volume manual process with an automated, observable pipeline that cuts cycle time by 30–50%.
- Architect resilient automations: Choose patterns for scraping, enrichment, and orchestration; design for idempotency, retries/backoff, observability, and safe scaling with predictable costs. Success in 90 days: Establish SLAs and alerts for critical jobs; baseline failure/latency metrics with weekly improvements.
- Integrate the stack: Connect data and processes across tools/APIs with clean contracts and versioned schemas (e.g., n8n/Retool, Apify, HubSpot/Greenhouse, Zapier/Make, webhooks, queues). Success in 90 days: Launch a reusable template or internal tool that non-engineers can operate to spin up new automations.
- Raise data quality: Implement validation, normalization, and deduplication so downstream systems (CRM/ATS/ops tools) remain trustworthy. Success in 90 days: Reduce bad/duplicate records and document rules for ongoing governance.
- Instrument & improve: Build monitoring/alerts, SLAs, and usage & cost dashboards; experiment to increase throughput, reduce failures, and shorten cycle times. Success in 90 days: Stand up a cost & throughput dashboard and a simple weekly ops scorecard.
- Enable the org: Package reusable components/templates and clear runbooks so teams can launch and run automations without starting from scratch. Success in 90 days: Publish at least one runbook and onboard a non-technical team to use it.
- Tackle varied projects: Examples include content/competitor change tracking, campaign QA, account-research hygiene, candidate aggregation & scheduling, policy/SLA monitoring, and automated reporting.
Qualifications
- Strong English Communication Skills
- JavaScript (Node.js) & Python — production experience building and operating automations/integrations.
- n8n or Retool — Experience with orchestration or internal tools for multi-step processes.
- Apify — Experience with actors, datasets/storage, proxy management, and scheduling.
- API integration — Experience with REST/GraphQL, authentication, pagination, retries/backoff, and handling rate limits.
- Reliability tooling — Knowledge of queues, webhooks, CI/CD, logging/metrics/alerts.
- Data handling — Proficient with Google Sheets, Airtable, and SQL for interim processing and reconciliation.
- Business translation — Ability to clearly communicate and translate business workflows into robust automation.
Nice to have
- Bland AI (voice agents) for confirmations/scheduling or outreach flows.
- Power BI for operational and cost/throughput dashboards.
- Clay for enrichment/filtering/scoring.
- HubSpot/Greenhouse admin or API experience; enrichment APIs (Clearbit, Hunter, Apollo, PDL); email validation tools.
Why join us
- Own the architecture of a critical growth engine with visible business impact.
- Partner with leadership to design and scale a best-in-class automation platform.
