Senior Automation Engineer

Senior Automation Engineer (High-Impact / Mission-Critical Systems)

🔷 Role Overview

We are looking for an elite Automation Engineer who can design, build, and own

end-to-end automation systems at scale

. This is not a script-writing role—you will be expected to engineer

resilient, production-grade automation

that replaces manual operations across complex environments.

You must operate with strong ownership, anticipate failure scenarios, and deliver automation that is

observable, testable, and fault-tolerant under real-world conditions

.

🔷 Key Responsibilities

Automation Architecture & Engineering

Design and implement

scalable automation frameworks

across infrastructure, applications, and workflows

Build automation using

Python (or equivalent), APIs, and event-driven systems

Develop pipelines for CI/CD, test automation, and operational workflows

Systems Thinking & Reliability

Engineer automation with

idempotency, rollback, and failure recovery mechanisms

Identify bottlenecks and eliminate manual dependencies at system level

Ensure automation is production-ready with logging, monitoring, and alerting

Technical Ownership

Own automation lifecycle from design → deployment → optimization

Debug complex failures across distributed systems

Enforce coding standards, version control, and maintainability

Cross-Functional Impact

Work with DevOps, QA, Security, and Product teams to automate critical processes

Challenge inefficient workflows and redesign end-to-end processes

Deliver measurable impact (time saved, incidents reduced, uptime improved)

🔻 Non-Negotiable Requirements

5–10+ years in automation engineering (not manual QA or basic scripting)

Proven experience building

production-grade automation frameworks

Strong programming skills (Python, Java, or similar—not low-code tools)

Deep understanding of

CI/CD, APIs, testing strategies, and system reliability

Experience working with

distributed systems, cloud environments, or large-scale platforms

Demonstrated ability to debug failures across multiple layers (code, infra, network)

🔻 Exceptional Candidate Signals

Built automation that replaced entire workflows or teams—not just tasks

Experience with

infrastructure as code (Terraform, Ansible)

Strong grasp of

observability (logs, metrics, tracing)

Proven impact in high-scale or high-availability environments
