Key Responsibilities

Solution Architecture & Design

Process Assessment: Evaluate manual business processes to determine automation feasibility and ROI.

Documentation: Author Process Design Documents (PDD) and Solution Design Documents (SDD) outlining exact technical workflows.

Architecture Planning: Define the deployment strategy, identifying required infrastructure, bot licenses, and security protocols.

Development & Implementation

Bot Construction: Develop complex attended, unattended, and hybrid bots using the Automation 360 (A360) platform.

Cognitive Automation: Train and deploy Document Automation (formerly IQ Bot) models to extract unstructured data from PDFs and scanned documents.

Human-in-the-Loop: Build Automation Anywhere Robotic Interface (AARI) forms to allow seamless interaction between human workers and digital bots.

Custom Scripting: Write inline Python, JavaScript, or VBScript code blocks within A360 to handle edge cases that native actions cannot process.

Testing & Deployment

Testing Protocols: Conduct rigorous Unit Testing, System Integration Testing (SIT), and User Acceptance Testing (UAT).

Control Room Management: Package and deploy bots through the Automation Anywhere Control Room across Dev, QA, and Production environments.

Error Handling: Implement global exception handling frameworks to ensure bots fail safely and alert administrators with detailed logs.

Maintenance & Optimization

Production Support: Monitor live digital workforces, troubleshoot runtime errors, and resolve data-driven bot exceptions.

Code Optimization: Refactor existing code to reduce execution runtime, optimize memory usage, and lower API API consumption.
