Job Description
Senior Software Engineer – Automation
Gifthealth
• Designs, builds, and deploys production automations that integrate with internal APIs and third-party operational systems (browser-based UI automations where APIs are not available) • Builds and maintains step-level logging, alerting, and observability so automation failures, skips, and anomalies surface in real time rather than via downstream impact • Maintains, debugs, and enhances existing automations as operational requirements change and triages production incidents and resolve them within the internal fix path • Partners with operations stakeholders to translate process requirements into technical specifications, validates automation outputs during parallel-run periods, and defines acceptance criteria • Establishes and documents engineering standards for automation development, logging conventions, error handling patterns, configuration management, deployment processes • Evaluates, selects, and integrates tooling (including UI automation frameworks, observability platforms, and orchestration systems) that support the long-term automation roadmap • Documents automation logic, operational runbooks, and architectural decisions so that knowledge transfers cleanly across the engineering team
