Remote IT Automation Engineer

Transform Business Processes with Intelligent Automation

Ever imagined what’s possible when automation is more than just scripts—it’s a strategy that shapes how teams work, learn, and innovate? If you’re ready to redefine productivity on a global scale, this is your moment. You’ll architect systems that empower teams to focus on creative solutions, not repetitive tasks, and ensure technology serves people, not the other way around. The impact you make will echo across distributed teams, transforming the daily experience for colleagues worldwide.

Role Purpose & Impact

You won’t just implement automation—you’ll create the digital backbone that elevates how the business operates. Imagine orchestrating seamless integrations across cloud platforms, securing data workflows, and turning hours-long processes into one-click solutions. Your work unlocks the potential for every team to deliver faster, smarter, and with fewer roadblocks. You’ll have ownership from discovery to delivery, ensuring every solution is robust, scalable, and measurable. The goal? Making complexity invisible, so teams spend time where it matters most.

What You’ll Do (Responsibilities That Drive Results)

  • Design Automation Strategies: Architect automation frameworks that streamline infrastructure provisioning, user onboarding, and incident response, making life easier for everyone who relies on IT.
  • Optimize and Scale Systems: Your scripts, bots, and pipelines will support teams in every time zone, ensuring uptime, efficiency, and proactive problem-solving.
  • Integrate Diverse Technologies: You’ll connect APIs, cloud tools, and legacy systems, turning disparate platforms into a unified digital ecosystem.
  • Champion Security by Design: Every automation you deliver will incorporate data privacy and security best practices, ensuring sensitive information remains protected.
  • Mentor and Guide: Share your expertise through documentation, peer reviews, and workshops, raising the bar for automation maturity across the company.
  • Proactive Incident Prevention: Utilize monitoring, alerting, and self-healing processes to minimize outages and provide teams with peace of mind.

Tools & Technologies (Your Automation Toolkit)

You’ll have freedom to shape the tech stack, but expect to collaborate using tools like:

  • Scripting Languages: Python, PowerShell, or Bash, crafting robust, reusable scripts.
  • Automation Platforms: Ansible, Terraform, or similar IaC tools for scalable deployments.
  • CI/CD Pipelines: GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or GitLab CI for seamless software delivery.
  • Cloud Services: AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud—leveraging native automation capabilities.
  • Collaboration Channels: Notion for documentation, Slack for quick syncs, and Jira for tracking initiatives.
  • Monitoring & Security: Prometheus, Datadog, or Splunk to keep everything running smoothly and securely.

Work Environment & Culture

Remote-first isn’t a buzzword here—it’s the operating system. Your schedule is flexible, and your focus is respected. You’ll be surrounded by problem-solvers who view automation as the spark for innovation, not just a means to optimize tasks. Curiosity and experimentation are celebrated, as is honest communication—whether it’s over Zoom or asynchronous updates. You’ll partner with product managers, developers, and support to deliver unified, user-centric solutions. There’s room to grow, space to experiment, and time to focus intensely when it counts.

What Makes You a Great Fit

  • You translate business challenges into technical opportunities—always looking for ways to automate what’s manual or error-prone.
  • Explaining complex solutions in simple terms comes naturally; you simplify ideas for colleagues at every level, whether over Zoom or Slack.
  • You’re hands-on with scripting, automation platforms, and cloud services, but also keep the big picture in focus.
  • Experience with infrastructure-as-code, cloud integrations, and workflow automation is key.
  • You value security as a fundamental part of automation, not an afterthought.
  • Curiosity and initiative drive your learning; you stay current with emerging tools and practices.

Your Impact—Measured & Celebrated

Every automation you build will give teams back hours, reduce error rates, and boost operational resilience. Your dashboards will display real outcomes: faster onboarding, shorter incident resolution times, and measurable cost savings. Recognition comes from the value your work creates, not just the code you write.

Compensation

You’ll join a remote team that values your expertise and commitment. The annual salary for this position is $102,175, reflecting your role in shaping how work gets done at scale.
