What you’ll be doing

• Design, develop, and deploy workflow automations that streamline cross-functional business processes across Employee Services, IT, and People Operations.

• Partner with business stakeholders and IT teams to analyze complex workflows and reimagine them through automation, AI, and integration solutions.

• Build automations leveraging tools such as Zendesk, Workato, Google Workspace, Slack, and Workday - connecting systems to reduce manual work and improve employee experience.

• Experiment with AI-powered agents, copilots, and workflow automation frameworks to reduce repetitive tasks and enable higher value targets.

• Collaborate closely with the AI & Automation Director, AI Governance, and Enterprise Architecture teams to evaluate and pilot new AI tools responsibly and securely.

• Create reusable automation templates, integration patterns, and documentation to accelerate adoption of automation capabilities across Zendesk.

• Assess incoming automation requests, maintain and prioritise a backlog, and collaborate with leadership to align execution based on impact, effort, and strategic objectives.

• Support the development of performance metrics (ROI, time-savings, productivity gains) and continuous improvement of automations in production.

• Evangelize AI-first thinking by demonstrating how automation and AI can enhance service delivery and employee productivity.

What you bring to the role

• 5+ years of experience in workflow automation, integration engineering, or low-code/no-code development.

• Demonstrable hands-on experience designing, building, and maintaining automation workflows in one or more of the following: Zapier, n8n, Make (Integromat), Workato, UiPath, or comparable iPaaS / RPA tools.

• Familiarity with AI and machine learning APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Google Vertex AI, Anthropic) and prompt design principles.

• Demonstrated expertise in ITSM processes (incident, request, change, service catalog) and HR operations workflows (onboarding, offboarding, payroll, benefits) in a large enterprise environment.

• Hands-on experience with enterprise ITSM/ESM SaaS platforms (including configuration, integration, automation, reporting) ensuring controls, resilience, governance and scalability.

• Experience working with REST APIs, JSON, and webhooks to integrate SaaS systems.

• Solid scripting or programming fundamentals (Python, JavaScript, or equivalent).

• Comfort operating in agile environments with rapid prototyping, iteration, and stakeholder feedback loops.

• Exceptional analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills; able to translate business needs into scalable automation solutions.

Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or equivalent practical experience.

• 3–5 years of hands-on experience designing and deploying automations in enterprise environments.

Preferred Qualifications

• Hands-on experience deploying or integrating major enterprise SaaS platforms - for example: Zendesk, Workday, Google Workspace, Slack and familiarity with related ecosystems (e.g., identity/authn, API-connectors, data flows).

• Strong familiarity with AI-agent/LLM orchestration frameworks (for example LangChain, CrewAI, or equivalent) - including designing conversational or task-oriented agents, integrating external tools/APIs, and operationalising them in production-grade environments.

• Demonstrated ability to measure automation or AI-driven initiatives using meaningful metrics such as process time-savings, SLA/XLA improvement, error-reduction, employee satisfaction or user adoption rates.

• Deep understanding of data privacy, governance, and responsible AI practices — including how to embed controls, auditability, vendor risk, bias mitigation and privacy by design into automation/AI initiatives.

• Proven experience operating in a global, distributed enterprise environment — including multi-region, multilingual, hybrid infrastructure (cloud + on-premises), and managing cross-regional security, compliance and resilience requirements.
