Junior AI Automation Developer
Manchester, GBOn-sitePermanentFull-time
Posted Aug 25, 2026
The Junior AI Automation Developer will help us solve the manual workarounds that slow down our clients. We are currently working with a major financial services provider based in the sector to address systemic delays in their approval chains and manual data entry points. You will assist in identifying where automation can replace repetitive manual steps, ensuring that data flows correctly between systems that currently do not communicate. This is a fully remote, permanent position focused on tangible fixes rather than theoretical designs.
About Tech Pipeline
We prioritize clear documentation over long meetings. Most of our internal updates happen through weekly written reports. We believe in named ownership, where every fix has a clear person responsible for its success. Since we are a remote company, we rely on precise communication and well-maintained runbooks to keep projects on track. We are not interested in creating dependencies: our goal is always to fix the problem, stabilize the client, and move on to the next challenge. We focus on the gaps between tools and the reality of daily operations, ensuring that the work actually gets done without the drag of manual intervention.
