Why this role exists
We have clear operational opportunities where AI can drastically reduce cycle time and eliminate repetitive work:
At the same time, we need strong ownership of core IT systems so the business runs smoothly without constant friction.
This role combines both—build automation where it matters most and keeping the underlying tech healthy.
What you’ll build (real projects, not hypotheticals)
You will be expected to directly build and deploy tools such as:
1) Proof Automation (“Proof Factory”)
2) AI‑Assisted Color Separations (starting simple)
3) Design Generation for Client Selection
4) Sales Prospecting Acceleration
5) Core IT Ownership
What success looks like (first 90 days)

Why this is a unique opportunity:
This role sits at the intersection of AI, production, and sales, with direct authority to implement change. If you want to build real systems, see immediate impact, and shape how a company uses AI in practice—not theory—this role is for you.
Education- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Data Science, Information Systems, or a related field preferred
- Equivalent hands‑on experience building and deploying real systems is valued equally
Experience & Qualifications- Proven experience building and deploying internal tools or automations that are actively used by teams
- Experience owning systems end‑to‑end: concept, build, deploy, support, and iteration
- Strong understanding of workflow automation, data flow, and exception handling
- Ability to translate messy, real‑world processes into reliable, repeatable systems
- Comfortable working directly with non‑technical teams (production, sales, operations)
Technical Capabilities- Strong programming or scripting ability (e.g., Python, JavaScript, or similar)
- Experience integrating systems via APIs, automation platforms, or custom workflows
- Familiarity with AI‑enabled workflows beyond prompt usage (e.g., routing, QA, guardrails, validation)
- Solid IT fundamentals:
- Microsoft 365 administration
- User access and permissions
- Basic security practices (MFA, backups, least‑privilege access)
What Will Set You Apart:- Exposure to production graphics, prepress, or screen‑printing workflows
- Experience working with vector and raster design pipelines
- Automation work in sales ops, prospecting, or go‑to‑market systems
- History of replacing manual spreadsheets or ad‑hoc processes with durable systems
- You have examples of systems you have build that people rely on everyday
