Wells Fargo is seeking an Automation Platform Engineer to architect, build, and evolve the enterprise automation platform that powers technology-enabled workflows across the organization.
This position focuses on automation as a durable platform and product rather than ad hoc scripting. It serves as a foundational enabler for business process transformation, standardized operational workflows, self-service capabilities, and future AI-driven automation built with enterprise-grade reliability, scalability, and governance.
We're looking for an engineer who has already built automation frameworks at scale and understands what it takes to run them in complex enterprise environments. This is not a role focused on learning automation concepts or maintaining isolated scripts. You'll help define the architecture, standards, and engineering practices that shift execution from people to platforms while creating measurable reductions in operational effort across Technology.

As a Senior Automation Platform Engineer, you will operate as both a technical subject matter expert and hands-on engineer, defining standards, developing core automation services, and partnering with infrastructure, operations, security, and application teams to fundamentally transform how work is executed across the enterprise.
Success in this role requires a platform mindset, strong software engineering discipline, and prior experience building scalable automation solutions that can be adopted broadly across an organization.
