Full Job Description
About the Role

We are seeking a hands-on AI & Automation Engineer to design, build, and optimize integrations, automations, and AI-driven workflows that power our enterprise data and business operations. You'll own the Workato automation stack, develop resilient data pipelines between core platforms (Salesforce, NetSuite, Snowflake, Slack), and implement AI-enabled capabilities that reduce manual work and accelerate insights.

This role requires deep technical execution skills in integration development, data modeling, and programming, combined with a practical understanding of AI workflows. You will collaborate directly with stakeholders to translate business needs into scalable, automated solutions - delivering measurable improvements in data accessibility, system efficiency, and operational performance.

    • Architect multi-agent systems: tool selection, planning loops, state management, human-in-the-loop Checkpoints.
    • Partner with stakeholders to design corporate systems (Salesforce, NetSuite, Snowflake, Slack, etc) as agent-callable tools, not just data sources.
    • Build guardrails, fallbacks and error recovery for non-deterministic workflows.

Data/RAG Pipeline Design & Management
    • Develop and automate ELT/ETL processes to support both BI Analytics and AI retrieval across similar datasets with different access patterns.
    • Build evaluation into every pipeline to ensure high quality results considering precision, answer faithfulness, latency and cost.
    • Own retrieval end-to-end including ingestion, chunking strategy, embeddings, vector storage and reranking as one connected system.
    • Implement data enrichment, quality checks, and architectural safeguards to maintain trusted datasets.
  • AI Operations
    • Production observability: prompt/response tracing, cost monitoring, eval dashboards.
    • Document agent behavior, decision logic and failure modes.
    • A/B testing agent versions, model comparisons.

Programming for Automation
    • Write modular, reusable scripts in Python, Ruby, SQL, or JavaScript to support integration, data transformation, and automation tasks.

Governance & Documentation
    • Apply data governance practices for lineage, security, and retention.
    • Maintain technical documentation, diagrams, and version control via GitHub, Confluence, and Jira.
