• Build, test, document, and maintain scripts and workflow automations that reduce manual work and improve operational reliability. Use AI-assisted tools responsibly, validate generated outputs, protect sensitive information, and implement monitoring and failure-handling processes.
• Identify recurring issues and lead improvements from investigation through pilot testing, employee communication, deployment, and validation. Measure results, plan recovery procedures, maintain practical runbooks and self-service guidance, and coordinate changes with relevant technical and business teams.
