Job description

This role is open to candidates based in LATAM, Africa, and Eastern Europe. Please note that as this role supports U.S.-based clients, candidates must be available to work during U.S. business hours aligned with the client’s time zone.

Our client is a fast-growing e-commerce company that buys, bundles, and resells merchandise online. The company operates with a lean, distributed team and uses a combination of a core commerce platform, QuickBooks, Google Workspace, SharePoint, and custom-built internal systems to support day-to-day operations.

The company is looking to move from scattered, one-off AI experimentation toward AI automation that is systematically integrated into how the business operates.

ROLE OVERVIEW

The AI Workflow Specialist will identify, prioritize, build, and implement AI-powered automations across accounting, purchasing, operations, customer service, marketing, catalog management, and reporting.

Reporting directly to the founder, this person will initially work with each department to understand existing workflows, identify friction and repetitive work, and develop a prioritized roadmap for automation.

This is not a traditional software engineering role. The AI Workflow Specialist will primarily use modern AI coding assistants such as Claude Code to design, build, and ship practical internal tools and automations. The role requires strong business judgment, the ability to work with loosely defined problems, and end-to-end ownership from workflow audit through implementation and adoption.
