Automation Engineer

About the Role

Client's global network infrastructure relies on thousands of external partners — internet

service providers (ISPs), colocation facilities, hardware vendors, and managed service

providers. We're building a centralized platform to manage all of these relationships,

contacts, and service data in one place.

Develop Data Pipelines & Integrations

• Build ETL pipelines that synchronize partner data across multiple internal systems
• Automate the migration of legacy data from spreadsheets, wikis, and siloed databases into the centralized platform
• Develop reconciliation scripts to detect discrepancies between systems and maintain data consistency

Automate Operational Processes

• Build tools that auto-retrieve relevant partner contacts during network incidents, reducing response time
• Create automated escalation and outreach workflows triggered by network events
• Develop runbook automation to standardize and speed up repetitive operational tasks

Monitor & Report

• Build dashboards tracking data quality, freshness, and platform adoption
• Implement automated health checks and audit scripts to detect duplicates, orphaned records, or incomplete entries
• Create scheduled reports for leadership on automation ROI and data integrity metrics
