Senior Automation Engineer BA

Role Description

As a Senior Automation Engineer, you will join our Intelligent Automation delivery team and play a critical role in delivering high-quality automation solutions for our clients. This role is ideal for someone who is equally comfortable eliciting business requirements, designing end-to-end automation solutions, and building them hands-on using UiPath.

In this role, you will:

• Own the full automation lifecycle, from discovery and requirements gathering through solution design, development, testing, and production deployment.
• Apply your functional and technical expertise to solve complex business problems, translating business needs into scalable, resilient automation solutions that deliver measurable value.
• Lead net new automation initiatives independently or contribute as a key member of larger delivery programs.
• Work closely with business stakeholders, delivery pods, subject-matter experts, and client technology teams, acting as the primary point of contact for requirement clarity, solution intent, and delivery alignment.
• Support or lead platform migration initiatives (e.g., Blue Prism to UiPath), ensuring solutions are optimized for the target platform rather than simply lifted and shifted.
• Gain exposure to Agentic AI, Intelligent Document Processing (IDP), Test Automation, and advanced automation initiatives.
• Provide thoughtful recommendations and help shape future automation roadmaps for both clients and internal teams.

Qualifications

• Minimum of 3–5+ years of experience in RPA, Intelligent Automation, or Consulting roles, with demonstrated ownership of automation delivery outcomes.
• Strong hands-on experience with UiPath, including UiPath Studio and Orchestrator, delivering production-ready automations end-to-end.
• Experience with UiPath Maestro for orchestration of agentic, RPA, and human-in-the-loop workflows.
• Solid understanding of the automation lifecycle and SDLC, from discovery and design through deployment and hypercare.
• Proven experience creating high-quality automation documentation, including Process Design Documents (PDDs), Solution Design Documents (SDDs), and related technical artifacts.
• Experience working directly with business stakeholders, translating functional requirements into clear, testable, and scalable automation solutions.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to think critically and apply structured approaches to complex business problems.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across business and technical teams and manage client expectations.
• Practical experience with UiPath RPA development, and exposure to UiPath Test Manager or testing coordination activities.
• Familiarity with automation best practices, including ReFramework, exception handling, and logging strategies.
• Ability to read, interpret, and analyze technical design documents (TDDs) and support development teams with requirement clarity.

Requirements

• Act as the primary liaison between business stakeholders and technical delivery teams, ensuring clear communication and alignment throughout the automation lifecycle.
• Lead process discovery sessions, workshops, and stakeholder interviews to elicit, challenge, and validate business requirements.
• Document “As-Is” processes including current state understanding process logic and exception pathways.
• Define optimized “To-Be” automation solutions that improve efficiency, scalability, and control.
• Manage requirement changes through a structured change control process, ensuring impacts are documented, approved, and communicated effectively.
• Design, build, test, and deploy UiPath automations following established best practices and delivery standards.
• Lead solution design and development management, producing clear Solution Design Documents (SDDs), maintaining traceability matrices, and ensuring a well-groomed delivery backlog.
• Participate hands-on in automation delivery, including UiPath Studio development, use of the ReFramework, and implementation of robust exception handling and logging.
• Collaborate closely with QA, infrastructure, and release teams to support SIT, UAT, and production deployment activities.
• Own automation delivery end to end, from initial discovery through development, deployment, and hypercare support.
• Support backlog grooming, estimation, and sprint planning activities as required, to ensure delivery teams are provided with code-ready requirements.
• Provide clear and concise status updates, risks, and recommendations to clients and internal stakeholders.
• Build and maintain trusted-advisor relationships with clients, proactively identifying opportunities for optimization, enhancement, and expansion.
