Job description

Our consultancy partner is placing an AI automation engineer into a product company for 6 months, based in Melbourne. This engineer will be building production AI automation, not demos. Think Claude plus N8N (or UiPath), wired into real business processes like invoice processing. It's hands-on and a bit forward-deployed. You'd map the process with the client, decide what the AI handles versus what stays deterministic, then build it, test it and hand it over.

What you'll do
  • Map manual processes and decide what gets automated, what stays deterministic code, and where Claude does the reasoning
  • Build workflows in N8N (Workato or UiPath experience is a bonus) with Claude as the reasoning layer
  • Design guardrails, retries, fallbacks, and audit trails so one bad AI output never cascades
  • Explain the architecture to non-technical stakeholders
What you bring
  • Production experience with Claude or other LLMs
  • Hands-on N8N or similar workflow tooling
  • A disciplined AI-assisted engineering workflow
  • A cost-aware mindset on tokens, model choice, and judge or evaluator layers
  • Consulting-style communication, ideally some client-facing experience
  • Ideally you can code and you're comfortable with fullstack software development processes
The details
  • 6 month contract, Melbourne based
  • $750 + GST
  • Start: Immediate
