Job description

AI Automation Engineer

Remote | Full-time | U.S. Only

About the Team and Role

A Health-Tech company that has raised over $100M in funding is hiring their first AI Automation Engineer.

You’ll lead how AI gets used inside the company. Your job? Automate as much as possible—tools, tasks, workflows—so the whole team moves faster, works smarter, and builds better.

You’ll work directly with teams across the org to spot pain points and turn them into automated workflows. You’ll test, build, deploy—and repeat—using the best models out there. Access to top-tier LLMs won’t be a problem.

This role is for someone who ships. Not someone chasing research papers or building demos. We’re looking for pragmatic engineers who care about real impact.

What You’ll Do

  • Build tools that cut out repetitive work using AI

  • Automate your own workflows to move faster

  • Meet with internal teams to find and solve high-value problems

  • Prototype small utilities fast, and launch them even faster

  • Own and debug full-stack systems (Python, JS/React)

  • Handle systems with sensitive data—must be trustworthy

  • Track AI model releases and experiment with the latest

  • Get adoption—your tools need to work, and get used

What You Bring

  • 5+ years building software, including full-stack experience

  • Strong with Python, JavaScript, React

  • Past work using LLMs in real products (prompting, evals, etc.)

  • Great debugger and fast problem-solver

  • High ownership mindset—especially when stakes are high

  • Good communicator who works well with non-tech teams

  • Based in the U.S. and able to meet during Pacific hours (9–3 PT)

  • Comfortable with change and ambiguity

Nice to Have

  • Experience deploying internal tools

  • Familiarity with data privacy and security best practices

  • Background working in startups or small engineering teams

Why This Job?

  • You get to build from scratch

  • You’ll ship real stuff, not research slides

  • You’ll work directly with decision-makers

  • The org is AI-forward and model access is not a blocker

This is the kind of job where you make the biggest difference.

If you’re ready to lead the charge on automation, apply now.
