Full Job Description

đź“‹ Description

  • • Design and maintain the reasoning layer for our operational engines: workflows that route and action tasks on business logic, not just move data between systems.
  • • Translate manual processes into automation with our Engine Leads, iterating fast on real operational feedback.
  • • Build agents with Claude, Codex, or equivalent, backed by evals and manual QA, shipped through tem's own GitHub and AWS stack rather than new vendor tools.
  • • Own delivery end to end, from discovery through to production, monitoring, and iteration, measuring yourself on hours reclaimed.
  • • Build the reasoning layer
  • • Codify business rules, build data-quality gates, and define the safety valves that know when to hand a task to a human instead of an agent.
  • • Build agents with Claude, Codex, or equivalent that take on real operational volume. Each one is prompted, tested against real data, measured on precision and recall, iterated, and shipped only once it clears an agreed bar.
  • • Partner with Engine Leads
  • • Work directly with the domain experts across Payments & Debt, Tendering & Partner Activation, and other operational areas to learn the business logic and turn manual processes into automation.
  • • Move where the impact is. You'll shift priorities to whichever engine stands to gain the most from automation.
  • • Iterate on real operational feedback, not on what looked right in testing.
  • • Integrate and ship properly
  • • Connect internal platforms and third-party services using APIs, webhooks, and workflow tools (n8n and equivalent). You're comfortable in the messy middle, joining up systems that were never built to talk to each other.
  • • Build and maintain frontend apps in TypeScript, using tem's AWS-native stack (databases, S3) for storage, deployed through GitHub and GitHub Actions.
  • • Ship a great automation today over a perfect one next month, but never skip the eval and manual QA that prove it works before it touches live data.
  • • Own delivery end to end
  • • Take problems from discovery through to production, monitoring, and iteration. You'll act as the product manager for internal efficiency.
  • • Measure success in manual hours removed each week, and report it as a real metric.
  • • Own the errors in your workflows and respond to them, improving each automation on the back of real-world use.
  • • Enable the team
  • • Keep pace with what's new in AI (models, agent frameworks, prompting techniques) and bring it back into what you build.

🎯 Requirements

  • • 3–5 years in automation roles, with a real portfolio of hours reclaimed: specific, provable examples of code replacing manual work, not just prototypes.
  • • Comfort in the messy middle of API integration, connecting systems that were never designed to talk to each other.
  • • Deep experience with low-code automation platforms (n8n or equivalent), and hands-on experience building agents with Claude, Codex, or similar tooling as part of a real logic flow, not just prompting a chatbot.
  • • A systems thinker who can map a messy human process into clean architecture, and ship it inside an engineering stack.
  • • A real testing habit (evals plus manual QA), paired with a bias for shipping a great automation today over a perfect one next month.
  • • Comfort partnering directly with non-technical domain experts and turning their process knowledge into working automation.

🏖️ Benefits

  • • Salary aligned to internal benchmarks and reviewed twice a year.
  • • Stock options, so everyone shares in the mission.
  • • 25 days' holiday plus public holidays. Swap public holidays for the ones that matter most to you, and take your birthday off.
  • • Remote-first, flexible working, with clear core hours and no internal meetings on Friday afternoons.
  • • A remote-setup budget of up to ÂŁ1,200 / €1,200 a year.
  • • A wellbeing budget of up to ÂŁ150 / €150 a month.
