Senior/Lead AI Engineer

Roboyo AI is a category shaper in Applied AI and Agentic Automation. We help leading enterprises move from automation projects and AI experiments into governed, production-grade systems that execute real work across workflows, processes, products and services. 

Our heritage is in scaled enterprise automation; our future is Applied AI and Agentic Automation: autonomous agents, AI engineering squads, process orchestration, data and knowledge foundations, and human-in-the-loop governance embedded deeply into how our clients operate. 

We are not here to sell AI theatre. We are here to turn AI into working systems, measurable outcomes and repeatable transformation programs. 

 

About the Role 

We’re looking for a Senior/Lead AI Engineer to design, build, and deploy Python-based agentic automations for simple-to-medium complexity business tasks, end-to-end from design through testing and deployment. Some of this runs on GCP, so hands-on exposure to the platform is useful, though deep cloud expertise isn’t the bar — we care most about strong Python and agentic solution design skills. From time to time you’ll also help convert an existing RPA automation into a Python-based agentic solution, but that’s a small slice of the work — the core of the role is building new automations. 

Key Responsibilities 

• Design, develop, and deploy new Python-based automations and agentic workflows for simple-to-medium complexity business tasks, end-to-end from requirements through testing and deployment. 

• Build and integrate agentic AI components (LLM-based agents, orchestration/tooling frameworks) into automations, choosing the right level of “agentic-ness” for the task at hand. 

• Deploy and operate automations on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) where needed, integrating with APIs, databases, and enterprise systems. 

• Write and execute automated unit and integration tests, and run these through CI/CD pipelines to ensure reliable deployments and mitigate production risk. 

• Diagnose and resolve technical defects in your automations, optimizing performance and stabilizing processes before handoff to support teams. 

• On occasion, assess an existing RPA/UiPath automation and convert it into a Python-based agentic solution — a minor, occasional part of the role rather than the main focus. 

• Act as a technical guide for junior and mid-level engineers within your pod; run peer code reviews to enforce coding standards and reusability. 

• Serve as a technical representative in client meetings — translating technical approach, trade-offs, and risk into language accessible to non-technical stakeholders. 

• Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders — data engineers, DevOps, product managers, and business analysts — to prioritize and deliver the automation roadmap. 

• Stay current on industry trends in agentic AI and automation, and continuously improve our delivery methodology and service offerings. 

Required Qualifications  

• 5+ years of hands-on Python software engineering experience, including building production services, APIs, and data pipelines. 

• Experience building or integrating agentic AI automations (e.g. LLM-based agents, orchestration frameworks) for simple-to-medium complexity business tasks. 

• Strong analytical and solution design skills — able to take a business process description and design a clean, efficient Python/agentic automation for it. 

• Experience with common Python data/engineering libraries (e.g. Pandas, NumPy) and building well-tested, maintainable code. 

• Proficiency with containerization (Docker/Kubernetes) and CI/CD pipelines. 

• Some hands-on exposure to Google Cloud Platform (GCP) — e.g. Compute Engine, Cloud Run, Cloud Storage, or similar. Deep GCP expertise is not required; we're looking for enough familiarity to work in it and pick up more as needed. 

• Strong track record operating in Agile/Scrum frameworks within enterprise engagements, working alongside BAs, developers, and business SMEs. 

• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills — able to articulate technical challenges and solutions to both technical peers and project leadership. 

• Cloud Deployment Experience: Deploy and manage Python-based applications and agentic solutions using Kubernetes, including GKE, and Google App Engine.   

 

Nice to Have 

• Hands-on experience with UiPath (Studio, Orchestrator, REFramework) or other RPA platforms (Automation Anywhere, Power Automate) — useful for the occasional RPA-to-agentic conversion. 

• Exposure to UiPath AI Center / Action Center, Agentic AI solution design, or UiPath Advanced RPA Developer certification. 

• Exposure to consulting environments or client-facing delivery roles. 

• Familiarity with additional cloud platforms (AWS, Azure) beyond GCP. 

• Interest in upskilling in adjacent technologies such as process mining (Celonis, UiPath Process Mining), low-code platforms (Power Apps), or conversational AI (Cognigy, Druid). 

 

What We Offer 

• A truly international environment, collaborating on global automation projects. 

• The opportunity to experiment and innovate with Agentic AI solutions as we pioneer and rebrand our offering in the consultancy space 

• Work at the core of the automation and AI wave — we’re a pure-play automation company fully focused on innovation and future-ready solutions. 

• A growth-focused environment where you’re empowered to develop, excel, and contribute meaningfully — no corporate silos, no red tape. 
• This is not your standard corporate job — we value initiative over hierarchy, and you’ll have room to make a real impact from day one. 
• A vibrant team culture, collaborative spirit and culture you can’t experience anywhere else!
