Junior role focused on automation in customer care at , a travel and spend management platform company.

Обязанности

Customer Care at is being rebuilt around automation and AI. This role is for someone who likes taking a messy operational problem and turning it into something that runs in production.
As an Automation Specialist, you'll design and ship the systems that cut manual work, make agents faster, and improve what customers actually experience. You'll work across, Airtable, Zendesk, Claude, APIs, and whatever else the problem needs. Some days that's a workflow. Some days it's an AI tool with evals, guardrails, and a kill switch. The through-line is the same: get it from idea to live, then keep it reliable.
You'll partner with Operational Excellence, Customer Care Leadership, and Operations. You'll own delivery end to end, and you'll be measured on whether the things you build actually stick.

Требования

Shipped production automations on, Zapier, Claude, or similar not just demos.
Worked with Airtable or comparable systems as a real ops backbone, not a side spreadsheet.
Built LLM-powered workflows with prompt craft, evaluation, and guardrails — and knows when the model shouldn't act alone.
Strong at debugging production systems under time pressure.
Can turn a fuzzy business request into something scalable and supportable.
Comfortable working with both technical and operational partners.
Prefers speed and ambiguity over perfect specs.

AI is embedded in how we work across every function. The tools you'll use day-to-day are AI-enabled, so you can move faster and spend more time on the work that matters. In practice, that means using AI to research and prioritise accounts, draft and refine outreach, handle customer interactions more effectively, synthesise information, and cut through shadow work - the invisible tasks that pull people away from the work only they can do - so you can focus on relationships and outcomes.
We don't expect you to be an AI expert, but we do expect you to be curious and intentional about it. The bar is judgment: knowing when AI makes your work better, when to verify what it produces, and when to rely on your own expertise instead.
We'll ask about how you use AI in your interviews, not to test tool knowledge, but to understand how you think about it. That reflects how we work every day.
