Role Description We are looking for an AI Automation Engineer to join Circana’s AI & Automation transformation program. In this role, you will build and ship production automations that integrate Python, REST APIs, data stores, and Large Language Models into end-to-end solutions across Circana’s global Operations Division. This is a hands-on engineering role where you will take process specifications and turn them into deployed, monitored, production systems — working in short-cycle sprint pods that deliver a working automation within a single quarter. The program targets millions in run-rate cost savings across 17 operational value stream areas, and you will be a core part of making that happen. Job Responsibilities - Take process specifications from the Solutions Architect function and design the technical approach, including data flow, integration points, LLM components, error handling, and human-in-the-loop touchpoints. - Build automations in Python: REST API calls, data store reads and writes, transformation logic, LLM integration, output validation, and the orchestration that ties it together. - Integrate LLMs into production workflows — including prompt engineering, structured output parsing, and output validation against defined quality thresholds. - Write tests that cover core logic, integration with external dependencies, and output quality checks for LLM components against defined acceptance criteria. - Deploy solutions to production, monitor initial runs, and manage hypercare through to stable operation. - Contribute to the program’s shared patterns library and component library as reusable patterns emerge across automation projects. - Maintain code in a shared repository with branching, pull request review, and documentation standards established by the programme. - Participate in sprint ceremonies (planning, daily standup, review, retrospective) and surface blockers early and constructively. - Build lightweight full-stack tooling (React frontends, FastAPI backends) when automations require a human-facing interface such as review queues, exception dashboards, approval workflows, or configuration surfaces. - Contribute to the design and implementation of multi-step agentic workflows, including tool use, memory, planning, and evaluation frameworks as the programme’s agentic automation capability matures. - Hand off completed automations to operations teams with documentation that a non-engineer can follow. Qualifications - 5-10 years of Python development experience in a production environment — systems that run, fail, get fixed, and run again, not scripts on a laptop. - Solid REST API integration experience: authentication patterns, rate limiting, pagination, error handling, and the debugging skills to diagnose integration failures without documentation. - Working knowledge of relational and cloud data stores (PostgreSQL, Snowflake, S3/Blob storage): SQL for querying and writing, and enough understanding of schema to navigate one you did not design. - Direct experience integrating Large Language Models into production workflows: prompt engineering, structured output parsing, output validation, and the discipline to handle hallucination as an engineering problem. - Git proficiency: branching strategy, pull request discipline, meaningful commit messages, and the ability to review code constructively. - The ability to read a process specification and ask the right questions before writing a line of code — identifying what is undocumented, what assumption is doing the most work, and where things will break first. - Familiarity with agile delivery methodologies (Scrum, Kanban) and sprint-based tooling (Jira or equivalent). - Excellent communication skills with the ability to explain what an automation does, what it cannot do, and what happens when it fails — to stakeholders who are not technical. Circana Behaviors - Stay Curious: Being hungry to learn and grow, always asking the big questions. - Seek Clarity: Embracing complexity to create clarity and inspire action. - Own the Outcome: Being accountable for decisions and taking ownership of our choices. - Center on the Client: Relentlessly adding value for our customers. - Be a Challenger: Never complacent, always striving for continuous improvement. - Champion Inclusivity: Fostering trust in relationships engaging with empathy, respect, and integrity. - Commit to each other: Contributing to making Circana a great place to work for everyone.
