Job description

What you'll do

You'll be automating the recurring, manual tasks IT teams handle every day — access reviews, license audits, alert triage, onboarding/offboarding steps, and similar — by building:

• Automation scripts and small tools in Python — pulling data from APIs, transforming it, and pushing results somewhere useful
• Power Automate flows to connect different business systems and automate repetitive manual work
• AI agents using the Claude API — writing the logic that connects an agent to a real system (like email, a ticketing tool, or a chat app) so it can actually take action, not just answer questions
• Simple dashboards and reports so people can see what an automation is doing, or catch something that needs attention
• Integrations with common IT and business tools via their APIs (think: Microsoft 365, Slack, ticketing systems) — reading data from them and writing back to them
• Tests and documentation for what you build, clear enough that a teammate can pick it up and extend it later

What we're looking for

• 1–2 years of hands‑on development experience — professional, internship, or solid personal/open‑source project work all count
• Working knowledge of Python — comfortable reading and writing scripts, calling APIs, and debugging your own code without needing to be walked through it
• Some exposure to Power Automate or a similar low‑code automation tool (Zapier, n8n) — you don't need to be an expert, but you should understand how flow‑based automation works
• Basic familiarity with git/GitHub (branches, pull requests, code review)
• Some experience calling or working with REST APIs — you understand requests, responses and authentication at a basic level
• Genuine interest in AI agents and automation — you don't need prior experience building with LLMs, but you should be excited to learn
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
