Senior Automation Engineer
Are you a Senior Automation Engineer ready to take your career to the next level? Join WorkFlex, a fast-growing European startup, and make an impact from day one!
➡️ About the role
Successful businesses think globally – but complex compliance challenges create significant barriers to global operations, forcing teams to spend vast amounts of time, money, and energy on administration instead of strategic priorities.
Traditional compliance approaches are too slow, vague, and expensive for modern business dynamics. That's why we've built the platform that automates compliance and duty of care for business travel, workations, and international assignments.
Our vision: A world where global business knows no borders – where compliance is effortless, so growth has no limits.
Your role in this mission: We're seeking an experienced Senior Automation Engineer who will transform complex manual processes into seamless automated solutions that empower our teams to scale globally.

- Automate Business Processes: Design, build, and maintain automations that streamline manual workflows and enhance efficiency.
- End-to-End Automation Delivery: Own the full automation lifecycle from requirement gathering, process analysis, and development to testing, deployment, and production monitoring.
- Optimize Existing Bots: Audit, debug, and improve existing automations to increase stability, speed, and maintainability.
- Lifecycle Governance: Ensure all automations follow established standards, documentation, and compliance guidelines across environments.
- Operational Excellence: Support production operations by handling incidents, monitoring bot performance, and implementing continuous improvements.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with business, product, and tech teams to align the requirements needed to facilitate automation.
- Accountability: Take ownership of assigned processes with a proactive mindset and strong commitment to quality and results.
