Job description

Job Purpose:
To design, build, scale, and maintain our core automation infrastructure. In this role, you will act as the bridge between unstructured AI capabilities (LLMs, RAG pipelines, intelligent agents) and structured enterprise systems (HRIS, Payroll, databases, and third-party APIs).

Build and maintain Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines, managing vector databases (e.g., pgvector, Pinecone, Qdrant) for internal knowledge bases and HR/policy search.

Enforce deterministic guardrails, structured JSON outputs, and validation steps around non-deterministic AI outputs before writing data to databases.

System Integrations & Data Pipelines

Connect disparate platforms via REST APIs, GraphQL, webhooks, and secure authentication protocols (OAuth2, JWT, API Keys).

Build robust data transformation pipelines to clean, map, and sync data seamlessly between operational tools and internal databases.

Implement comprehensive logging, monitoring, and automated alerting for workflow failures or API rate-limit bottlenecks.

Documentation & Reporting

Document automation procedures, test plans, and test scripts.

Report on the outcomes of automated tests, including any issues or bugs.

Work closely with developers, QA engineers, and DevOps to identify automation opportunities.

Provide technical support and training to other team members regarding automation best practices.
