AI Automation Engineer — End-to-End Cloud Deployments

Cognizant; Greater London; Sur place; GBP 90 000 - 120 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

Cognizant is seeking an AI-enabled automation engineer to deliver end-to-end automation solutions. You will build AI agents, deploy them, and ensure production readiness with robust monitoring and CI/CD pipelines.

Collaborate with architects to translate designs into production-ready builds, integrate with enterprise systems, and maintain runbooks for operations. This role emphasizes cross-stack expertise across automation, integration, and AI disciplines.

Qualifications

• Hands-on development of automations/agents; RPA background helpful but must extend into AI/LLM-based build work.
• Practical experience with LLM APIs, agent frameworks, and integrating them into production systems, not just conceptual familiarity.
• Strong API/integration development skills, including REST, webhooks, and event streaming.
• Hands-on cloud platform experience across Azure/AWS/GCP, including deployment and basic infrastructure-as-code.
• Experience running production monitoring/observability for deployed services, including logging, alerting, and dashboards.
• Comfortable working across the stack rather than in a single specialism — automation, integration, and AI.
• Debugging and troubleshooting across distributed, cloud-hosted systems.
• Familiarity with version control, CI/CD pipelines, and standard software engineering practices.
• Ability to work from architectural designs and translate them into working, production-ready builds.

Responsabilités

• Build and deploy AI agents and LLM-based automations against architecture designs.
• Develop integrations between automation/agent layers and enterprise systems via APIs, webhooks, and event-driven patterns.
• Own the full delivery lifecycle for assigned components: development, testing, deployment, and production support.
• Implement and maintain deployment pipelines (CI/CD) for AI services and automations on cloud platforms.
• Set up and maintain monitoring/observability for deployed agents and automations, catching failures, drift, or performance degradation in production.
• Troubleshoot and resolve production issues across the automation/AI/integration stack, escalating to the Architect where design changes are needed.
• Collaborate closely with the Architect on design feasibility and technical constraints during solutioning.
• Collaborate with the Integration Architect on data/API dependencies feeding automations and agents.
• Document technical builds, configurations, and runbooks to support handover and ongoing operations.
• Contribute reusable components, templates, and patterns for future engagements.
• Support testing and validation of automation/agent outputs prior to production release.
• Participate in code/design reviews led by the Architect.
