Job Summary
The role owns existing production automations covering ticket intake and response, network self-service and conversational flows, and builds new ones, including AI-assisted workflows where they measurably outperform the alternative. This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who writes production code, integrates systems that were never designed to talk to each other, and instruments what they build so its performance is a measured fact rather than an impression. The role suits an engineer with sound judgment about when to automate, when to apply a model, and when to leave a working system alone.
Location
- The role will be based on-site at the office in Southlake, TX.
Employment Classification
- Exempt: Regular, Full-time
Supervisory Responsibilities
Duties / Responsibilities
- Build, operate, and improve production automations that process high-volume operational workflows end to end: intake, business rules, system of record updates, and outbound response.
- Take ownership of existing production automation, including established systems currently maintained by others, and bring them to a documented, monitored, and independently supportable standard.
- Design and build integrations across enterprise systems using REST APIs, webhooks, and direct database access, including systems with incomplete or inconsistent documentation.
- Build AI-assisted workflows such as retrieval, classification, summarization, and conversational automation, and define how each is evaluated before it reaches production.
- Instrument everything that ships: define success and failure explicitly, measure how often each occurs, and make the result visible without being asked.
- Extend and maintain conversational automation flows across voice and digital channels, and expand the set of customer issues resolved without an agent.
- Add reliability, alerting, and recovery to automated systems so failures are detected and surfaced rather than discovered later.
- Work with spatial and operational data in PostgreSQL/PostGIS and the enterprise analytics platform to support automated decisions.
- Write and maintain documentation, runbooks, and tests so that no automated process depends on a single person’s knowledge.
- Administer the Databricks platform alongside the current owner: workspace and compute configuration, Unity Catalog governance and access grants, job scheduling, and cost monitoring. Build enough depth that platform administration is not dependent on a single person.
- Partner with Customer Experience, Network Operations, and Engineering to identify high-volume manual work, quantify the opportunity, and deliver the automation.
- Apply sound judgment about where automation and AI belong, and say plainly when a proposed solution is not worth building.
- Perform other duties as assigned.
Education and / or Experience
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field, or equivalent demonstrated experience.
- Three or more years writing and maintaining production code, with automation, integration, or data engineering as a primary focus.
- Two or more years of AI enablement experience.
- Demonstrated experience owning a system in production, including responsibility for its failures.
- Hands-on experience building with large language models or applied machine learning in a production or near-production setting, including how the output was evaluated.
- Experience integrating third-party or vendor platforms via API required; experience with telecom, field service, CRM, or contact center platforms preferred.
Required Skills / Abilities
- Strong proficiency in Python, including scheduled and long-running processes, error handling, and logging.
- Strong SQL, and comfort working directly in a relational database; PostgreSQL and spatial data (PostGIS) preferred.
- Practical command of REST APIs, authentication patterns, webhooks, and event-driven integration.
- Experience with large language model tooling: prompting, retrieval-augmented generation, structured output, and evaluation.
