Description of the offer
Automation Engineer / Python Developer — AI & Workflow Systems
We’re looking for an AI focused developer who can design systems that automate intelligently and do meaningful work.
This role sits at the intersection of AI, automation, and real business operations.
You’ll take ownership of existing n8n workflows that handle customer service inquiries, expand them with new features, and push into new frontiers — voice automation (ex: VAPI) that handles calls and voicemails, and deeper operational processes that drive insights and efficiency across the company.
What You’ll Do
- Take over and expand existing n8n workflows that automate customer service and internal processes
- Build and refine Python-based backend systems (we use FastAPI and Litestar)
- Integrate voice AI to handle live calls, voicemail transcription, and intelligent responses
- Connect systems through APIs, databases, and event-driven logic
- Own projects end-to-end: concept → architecture → deployment → iteration
Who Thrives Here
- You don’t need a scrum master or detailed playbook to stay productive — you manage yourself and your work effectively.
- You think like an engineer and a problem-solver
- You’re enthusiastic about AI
- You communicate clearly, manage your own time, and deliver results consistently
- You’re comfortable being dropped into complex systems and making them better
Must-Have Skills
- Strong Python and backend fundamentals
- Familiar with SQL and data-driven logic
- Skilled at building and connecting APIs (third-party and internal)
- Experience with LLMs, prompt engineering, or AI-driven automation
- Bonus if you’ve worked with n8n, VAPI, FastAPI, or Litestar
Location & Schedule
Hybrid in Garland, TX — primarily remote with occasional in-person collaboration.
Our company is only set up to process payroll for Texas residents. Candidates outside of Texas would only be eligible if paid as a contractor/ vendor.
To Apply
Send:
- A short intro — why this role fits you
- A link to your GitHub, portfolio, or anything you’ve built
- One example of a system or automation you designed from scratch — what it did, how you approached it, and what made it unique
You’ll be joining a small, fast-moving team where autonomy isn’t just encouraged — it’s required. If this sounds like a good fit for you, we’d like to talk.
