About the role

The AI Automation Engineer is the execution layer of the Greenlight delivery pod.
This is not a back-office development role.
As AI agent-based automation grows alongside our RPA practice, this role requires genuine fluency across both - UiPath for process automation, and Claude-powered agent workflows for AI-driven solutions.

Build automation solutions in UiPath Studio - efficient, well-structured, maintainable, and easy to understand; scalability and reusability are not optional
Develop and configure AI agent workflows using Anthropic's Claude API - integrating LLM components, defining tool use, and wiring agent logic into the broader automation pipeline
Validate the AI-generated SDD before build begins - flag gaps, ambiguities, or technical constraints early rather than discovering them mid-sprint
Create reusable components, activity libraries, assets, and queues via UiPath Orchestrator and Studio that raise the quality floor for every subsequent build
Integrate automations with client systems - ERPs, CRMs, document management platforms, APIs - handling authentication, error handling, and edge cases the spec may not have fully anticipated
Write and execute unit tests and pre-UAT test procedures - own quality before the client ever sees it
Participate in UAT alongside the Automation Business Consultant - triaging defects, distinguishing genuine build issues from scope queries, and resolving assigned bugs with speed and quality
Build, Configuration & Test
Build and configure agents: define tool schemas, implement decision logic, handle multi-turn interactions, and ensure output formats match the finalized specifications
Implement prompt-to-output pipelines - taking the prompt architecture designed and wiring it into the automation workflow reliably and testably

3-7 years of hands-on development experience, with at least 2 years on UiPath a client-facing or professional services environment
you have shipped something that uses an LLM in production
Strong understanding of automation architecture: reusability patterns, exception handling frameworks, Orchestrator asset management, and queue-based processing

Clear communicator - able to explain what you built, why it works, and what it can and can't won't do
Experience working within agile delivery cycles - sprint-based development, backlog grooming, iterative releases
Precision builder - your code is clean, documented, and maintainable
Fast and focused - two-week sprints are real
you scope your effort, hit your commits, and flag early when something is bigger than it looked
UiPath Studio, Orchestrator, REFramework - proficient across the full development and deployment lifecycle
Anthropic Claude API or OpenAI API - tool use, structured outputs, prompt chaining, output validation
REST API integration - authentication patterns, error handling, payload management

They know how an LLM will behave under pressure before they deploy it, because they tested it.
They don't wait for UAT to find the edge cases - they find them first.
And when something breaks in production, they are already diagnosing it before anyone has to ask.
