  • Architect and integrate systems across documentation, localization, and content platforms using MCPs and REST APIs to enable reliable, scalable, and secure end-to-end workflows.
  • Apply AI and LLM-based capabilities to generate, validate, transform, enrich, and manage content in alignment with approved security, privacy, and compliance standards.
  • Own the reliability, performance, and maintainability of automation systems through monitoring, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement.
  • Define and contribute to standards, patterns, and reusable components that support consistent and scalable automation practices.
  • Mentor team members through technical guidance, design reviews, and knowledge sharing.
  • Partner cross-functionally to advance automation maturity, innovation, and AI-assisted documentation and localization workflows.
  • Other duties may be assigned.

What we are looking for:

  • BA/BS degree in computer science, engineering, information systems, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 5+ years of experience in automation engineering, software engineering, or systems integration, preferably supporting developer platforms, documentation, localization, or content operations.
  • Strong proficiency in Python, with experience building maintainable, testable, production-grade automation and agent frameworks.
  • Advanced experience with Git-based workflows such as GitHub, including pull requests, code reviews, and repository automation.
  • Experience with work-tracking and planning tools such as Jira, Linear, or similar systems.
  • Strong understanding of CI/CD concepts and tools such as GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, or Azure DevOps.
  • Due to collaboration with global teams, flexibility in working hours (including late afternoon meetings) will be required.

AI Skills / Knowledge:

  • Strong experience using AI-assisted engineering tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Cursor) with awareness of responsible AI practices including security, privacy, bias, and traceability.
  • Proven ability to design and operate production automation using Python and REST APIs.
  • Hands-on experience building and maintaining automation pipelines using Git-based CI/CD systems.
  • Demonstrated experience integrating LLMs via APIs to automate documentation and language operations.

Preferred Skills:

  • Experience designing or operating multi-agent or tool-orchestrated AI workflows at scale, including coordination and failure recovery.
