Staff Automation Engineer

Job Description

Who are you?

You're resourceful and creative

You love challenges and your analytical perspective finds the problems others may miss. Identify, analyze, and rectify is your mantra. Nothing is more satisfying than solving that difficult problem and you love to bring new ways to tackle an issue, even if it goes against popular opinion or the way things have been done before. You're not afraid to inject some reality when needed but offer alternative solutions - not excuses. You don't know the meaning of ''blocked''.

You lead by example

People always request you when they want someone technical for their project.

You're a mentor and make your teams stronger by being involved. When things get tough and deadlines are tight, you keep your cool, step up and do what is needed. We count on you and you can count on us.

You play nice with others

You believe in one team despite what the org chart says. You rally team members to form a common alliance and use your great communication skills and attention to detail to ensure the delivery of exceptional products.
