We’re hiring a Process Orchestration Engineer to design, build, and support integrations and automated workflows across our enterprise. This is a mid level role intended for someone who already brings solid technical fundamentals—especially scripting and SDLC experience—and is eager to deepen their skills in enterprise automation and orchestration.
This is not a traditional application development position. The focus of this role is integration driven scripting and workflow orchestration, with scripts executing within and alongside Control M job streams. You’ll partner closely with IT, data, and business teams, and take ownership of automation that keeps critical processes running.
We’re looking for someone who is hungry to learn, asks thoughtful questions, and wants to grow into deeper system level ownership.
