The team is actively moving into agentic automation patterns, so the person in this seat will work on both the established RPA estate and the newer AI assisted and agentic build work. Position this accurately to candidates. This is a hands-on build and support role on a mature production estate with a genuine path into applied AI engineering. It is not a greenfield AI research role, and it is not a maintenance-only support seat.
