Our clients include startups, digital agencies, and tech platforms in industries like SaaS, MarTech, FinTech, and EdTech.

Role Type: Full-time

Engagement: Independent Contractor

Job Summary

We are hiring a Automation Engineer (n8n Specialist) to design, build, and maintain the workflow automation systems that power our client’s operations.

This is a hands-on engineering role focused on executing automation requirements within sprint cycles. You will work closely with the automation lead and operations team to develop n8n workflows, system integrations, and scalable automation pipelines that support client campaigns and internal processes.

Key Responsibilities

  • n8n Workflow Development
    • Build, test, and deploy n8n workflows that automate operational processes such as lead enrichment, signal detection, outreach sequencing, reply routing, and reporting.
    • Maintain and optimize existing workflows by improving error handling, logging, execution speed, and scalability.
    • Design workflows that are modular and reusable across multiple clients rather than one-off builds.
    • Troubleshoot production issues quickly, identify root causes, and implement safeguards to prevent recurring failures.
  • Integration & Data Flows
    • Build and maintain integrations between operational tools including Airtable, Clay, Slack, CRM systems, outreach platforms, and custom APIs.
    • Manage data integrity across systems through field mapping, validation logic, deduplication, and error handling.
    • Work with webhooks, REST APIs, authentication systems, and JSON data transformations.
  • Sprint Execution & Team Collaboration
    • Work within Airtable-managed sprint cycles to pull tasks from the backlog, estimate effort, and deliver automation projects on schedule.
    • Participate in daily standups, sprint planning, and retrospectives.
    • Communicate blockers early and collaborate closely with the automation lead and operations team.
    • Document workflows, architecture decisions, and deployment processes to ensure maintainability.
  • Quality & Reliability
    • Thoroughly test workflows before deployment, including edge cases, rate limits, empty datasets, and error scenarios.
    • Monitor production automations and proactively resolve issues before they impact operations.
    • Maintain well-organized automation environments with consistent naming conventions and credential management.

Requirements

  • Required Skills
    • Extensive n8n automation experience in production environments, building complex workflows that support real business operations.
    • Strong understanding of workflow execution design, error handling branches, webhook triggers, and sub-workflow patterns.
    • Proven experience working with REST APIs, webhooks, JSON transformations, and authentication methods such as OAuth and API keys.
    • Proficiency with Airtable as both a data tool and project management system (views, linked records, formulas, automations).
    • Experience working in agile or sprint-based environments with standups, planning sessions, and retrospectives.
    • Strong remote collaboration skills using tools such as Slack and project management platforms.
    • Ability to produce clear technical documentation for workflows, architecture, and troubleshooting.
  • Preferred (Bonus) Skills
    • Development experience with JavaScript or Python for custom automation logic or helper scripts.
    • Experience integrating automation workflows with AI or LLM APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Claude).
    • Familiarity with outbound operations tools such as Clay, HeyReach, SmartLead, HubSpot, or similar CRM systems.
    • Strong understanding of automation architecture and system design for scalable operations.
