About the Role
VGW is seeking a Senior Automation Engineer to architect internal orchestration engines, transforming manual IT procedures into automated, zero-touch pipelines and reusable frameworks.
Responsibilities
- Architect and maintain durable, automated workflows that replace manual processes across IT and core business functions to eliminate single-person dependencies.
- Design robust, decoupled integration frameworks using APIs (REST/SOAP) and event-driven architectures (Kafka, SQS, Lambdas) to seamlessly connect applications.
- Drive background user account provisioning and zero-touch access control to significantly reduce service desk ticket volume and support rapid organisational scaling.
- Establish maintainable technical standards, self-service scaffolding, and reusable integration assets that empower other internal teams to leverage automation safely.
Requirements
- Proven experience converting manual operational workflows into reliable automated pipelines and integration frameworks.
- Strong background in event-driven architecture and messaging systems, such as Kafka, SQS, or Lambdas.
- Extensive API integration experience, including working with REST and SOAP APIs, custom endpoints, and secret management tools.
- Deep technical expertise in Identity Management, automated access control, and zero-touch provisioning across core enterprise applications.
- Solid software engineering foundation with hands-on technical implementation skills rather than high-level enterprise architecture alone.
