[Hiring] Intelligent Automation Engineer @Harbor Compliance

Role Description

This is a contractor position and will start as a 6-month contract with opportunity for extension. The Intelligent Automation Engineer builds automation that handles customer compliance filings — annual reports, charitable registration renewals, business formations, and registered agent changes — across state and government portals, as part of Agentic Operations' migration from legacy RPA (Fortra/UiPath) to an agentic stack built on Browserbase. This role suits a technically minded RPA or web automation engineer looking for hands-on exposure to agentic, AI-assisted development, measured by reliable, production-grade delivery on a predictable sprint cadence.

• Design and build browser automations for government agency portals — data scraping, form fill, and filing submission — using Browserbase or comparable frameworks.
• Use Claude Code as the primary environment for agentic coding of automations.
• Author automation specs using OpenSpec prior to implementation for structured handoff to agentic coding.
• Migrate and refactor existing RPA-based workflows (Python/RPA tooling) to the agentic stack as assigned.
• Integrate with internal and third-party APIs supporting the filing and data pipeline.
• Participate fully in Agile ceremonies on a two-week sprint cadence — planning, standups, backlog refinement, demos, retros — tracking work in Jira with accurate status and estimates.
• Troubleshoot production issues in live automations, including CAPTCHA/bot-detection, portal changes, and filing failures.
• Document completed automations and collaborate with product, data, and ops stakeholders to validate output against business and compliance requirements.

Qualifications

• Hands-on experience with Claude Code or a comparable agentic/AI-assisted coding tool.
• Experience with Browserbase or a comparable web automation framework (e.g., Playwright, Puppeteer, Selenium).
• Prior experience with RPA tools (e.g., UiPath, Fortra Automate) and/or Python-based web automation.
• Working knowledge of REST APIs.
• Experience working in Jira within a Scrum/Agile team, including sprint planning and backlog hygiene.
• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills for brittle, change-prone web targets (e.g., CAPTCHA/bot-detection handling), with attention to detail and clear communication.

Preferred

• Experience using OpenSpec (or a comparable spec-driven design approach) to scope work for agentic coding.
• Experience contributing to a migration from legacy RPA to agentic AI automation.
• Familiarity with compliance, legal, or regulatory filing domains, and/or SQL experience (MySQL/MSSQL) for filing and customer data.
