Job Description:

ABOUT THE ROLE:

Matson is looking for an entry-level developer capable of building production level AI agents and automations. Candidates will use low code platforms such as copilot, etc. and in pro-code using python, Java and Typescript. You are expected to own the agent end-to-end and interact with business stakeholders. The candidate should have a bachelor's degree and can be entry-level.

About the Role:

Matson's Architecture & Innovation organization is building the AI capability that will run inside our core shipping, logistics, and customer-facing systems. We are hiring two early-career engineers to build production AI agents and automations — both on low-code platforms (Microsoft Copilot Studio, Power Automate, AI Builder) and in pro-code (Python, Java, TypeScript) where the problem demands it.

This is a builder role, not a support role. You will own agents end to end: talk to the business user, understand the process, design the flow, build it, test it, and take it to production.

What You’ll Do:

• Build and ship AI agents and automated workflows on Microsoft Copilot Studio, Power Automate, and AI Builder for business teams across Commercial, Logistics, Terminals, and Finance
• Develop pro-code components where low-code hits its limits — API integrations, custom connectors, data extraction services, MCP tool servers
• Sit with business users to understand a process before automating it, and translate what you hear into a working design
• Write clean, reviewable code and follow SDLC discipline: version control, code review, testing, CI/CD, structured deployment across DEV/UAT/PROD
• Instrument what you build — logging, error handling, and enough observability that someone else can diagnose it at 2am
• Participate in Agile ceremonies, keep your work visible in Jira, and communicate status without being chased
• Rotate through our internal AI support channel, fielding agent-development questions from business users across the company

Minimum Qualifications
