Automation Lead

About the Role

We are seeking an Automator—a relentless experimenter and builder who thrives on deploying AI tools to drive internal efficiencies and business outcomes. Your mission is to identify inefficiencies, design optimized workflows, and implement AI-driven automation solutions that improve speed, accuracy, and scalability across our business.

You’ll work directly with the co-founder to analyze existing workflows, propose new streamlined systems, and rapidly iterate to build those solutions using available AI and automation tools. This is a hands-on role for someone who is equally obsessed with AI, no-code tools, and workflow automation as they are with mapping out processes and making things work better.

If you love finding, testing, and integrating the latest tools—and can execute at the speed of thought—this role is for you.

Key Responsibilities

🔍 Identify Automation Opportunities

• Audit internal workflows across marketing, sales, recruitment, client delivery, onboarding, HR, and accounting to find inefficiencies.
• Proactively explore emerging AI tools and automation technologies to enhance operations.

🗺 Map & Optimize Workflows

• Document current processes, identifying gaps, redundancies, and areas for improvement.
• Develop proposed workflow optimizations that leverage AI and automation.
• Present solutions clearly via structured decks with options, trade-offs, and implementation plans.

⚡ Build & Deploy AI-Driven Solutions

• Implement AI-powered automations using tools like Zapier, Flowgent, Replit, Make, and other no-code platforms.
• Create seamless integrations between CRM, project management, accounting, and HR tools to reduce manual tasks.
• Rapidly test, refine, and scale automation solutions for continuous improvement.

📊 Measure & Iterate

• Track and report the impact of automations with clear performance metrics.
• Continuously refine and improve systems to maximize efficiency gains.

About You

• AI & Automation-Obsessed: You actively experiment with new AI and automation tools and love solving efficiency problems.
• Development: You don’t need to be a developer, though basic Java/Python is helpful. You do need deep technical expertise in no/low-code automation
  Systems Thinker: You can deconstruct complex workflows, identify inefficiencies, and design smarter solutions.
• Creative Problem-Solver: You find innovative ways to integrate AI, no-code, and automation tools into real business challenges.
  Fast Executor: You rapidly test, deploy, and iterate automation solutions with minimal oversight.
• Metrics-Driven: You track success and constantly look for ways to refine processes.
• Clear Communicator: You document workflows in a way that makes it easy for stakeholders to understand and adopt new systems.

Tools You Should Be a Wizard With:

• Zapier, Flowgent, Replit, Make, Bubble, Airtable, Notion, and other no-code automation tools
• AI-powered workflow tools and APIs

What We’re Not Looking For:

🚫 Someone who just executes tasks—we need a builder and optimizer who takes initiative. You need to be on the hunt to improve operations, not wait around for your next task.
🚫 A traditional "operations generalist"—this role is for someone who is laser-focused on AI-driven process improvement.

If you live and breathe AI, automation, and efficiency—and can’t help but make things work better—we want to hear from you. 🚀
