Senior Automation Engineer
About the Role

We are seeking a Senior Automation Engineer to help design and deliver scalable, intelligent automation across a complex enterprise environment. This role is ideal for an engineer who began their career in Cloud Engineering, Network Engineering, or Identity & Access Management (IAM) and has since expanded into automation, systems integration, and operational efficiency.

This position goes beyond traditional scripting or task automation. You will work at the intersection of infrastructure, identity, cloud platforms, and service management, using automation to connect systems, reduce manual work, and improve reliability and visibility across the enterprise. A strong understanding of CMDB concepts and data relationships is critical, as automation efforts will rely heavily on accurate configuration data.

Key Responsibilities
Automation & Integration

Design, build, and maintain automation workflows that integrate cloud platforms, network systems, identity providers, and IT service management tools

Develop automation to support provisioning, deprovisioning, configuration changes, incident response, and operational workflows

Create reusable automation frameworks and patterns to scale automation across teams

CMDB & Service Management

Leverage CMDB data to drive automation, ensuring configuration items (CIs) and relationships are accurate and actionable

Partner with service management teams to improve CMDB data quality, discovery, and governance

Build automations that update, validate, and reconcile CMDB records across systems

Cloud, Network & Identity Enablement

Automate workflows related to cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform), networking, and identity platforms (Okta, Azure AD, AD, CyberArk, etc.)

Collaborate with cloud, network, and IAM teams to standardize and automate common operational tasks

Support identity-driven automation use cases such as access provisioning, role-based access, and lifecycle events

Operational Excellence

Reduce manual effort and operational risk through automation and self-service capabilities

Improve reliability, observability, and response times through automated remediation and event-driven workflows

Support incident, change, and configuration management processes with automation-first solutions

Collaboration & Leadership

Act as a technical mentor and automation subject-matter expert for engineering and operations teams

Partner closely with architecture, security, and platform teams to align automation with enterprise standards

Contribute to automation strategy, roadmap, and best practices

Required Qualifications

Strong background in Cloud Engineering, Network Engineering, or Identity & Access Management, with a transition into automation

Hands-on experience building automation using scripting or automation tools (Python, PowerShell, Bash, Ansible, Terraform, etc.)

Solid understanding of CMDB concepts, configuration items, relationships, and service mapping

Experience integrating automation with ITSM platforms (e.g., ServiceNow or similar)

Strong systems-thinking mindset and ability to work across technical domains
