# AI Automation Engineer

> Valsoft Corporation · United States (Remote) · Full-time · Posted 2026-03-23

**Workplace:** remote

**Department:** IA | AI

## Description

**Join the team transforming 150+ software companies with AI**

**ABOUT VALSOFT:**

Valsoft is a global firm that acquires and grows mission-critical vertical market software companies. Since 2015, we have built a portfolio of 150+ companies across 30+ industries, comprising 4,000+ employees in over 20 countries.

We're building the infrastructure, tools, and talent to make every business in our portfolio AI-native. We're hiring across 150+ vertical market software businesses in the Valsoft portfolio. The right candidate will be matched to a specific business where they can have an outsized impact from day one and an opportunity to work across multiple businesses over time.

**THE OPPORTUNITY:**

Engineers at Valsoft go where the hardest problems are — embedded directly inside portfolio companies, working alongside operators, product teams, and customers to solve complex, messy, high-stakes challenges that can't be fixed from a distance.

As an AI Automation Engineer, you'll be the person who figures out how to make a business run better end to end. The product, internal ops, customer experience, back office — if it's manual and repeatable, it's your target. You're not here to consult. You're here to build and ship.

**What you’ll do**

-   Embed inside portfolio companies to audit their workflows across every department and identify automation opportunities
-   Translate messy, manual processes into clean, reliable automated systems — using AI, no-code, custom code, or whatever actually works
-   Interview stakeholders, map processes, and diagnose root causes before writing a line of code
-   Build and deploy automation across operations, sales, customer support, reporting, and internal tooling
-   Own the full delivery cycle: scoping, building, shipping, measuring, and iterating
-   Work directly with company leadership to prioritize what gets built and communicate ROI clearly
-   Operate across multiple portfolio companies over time, building a repeatable playbook for what works

 **What we’re looking for**

-   Proven experience automating real business workflows — not just experiments, but things that shipped and stuck
-   Fluency across automation tooling: you know when to use Make, Zapier, n8n, custom code, or an AI agent — and you pick the right one
-   Strong technical foundation — you can build production-quality solutions, not just prototypes
-   Exceptional problem-framing skills: you ask the right questions before jumping to solutions
-   High comfort with ambiguity — you thrive when the brief is "this is costing us time but we don't know why"
-   Strong communicator — you can explain what you built, why it works, and what it's worth to non-technical leadership
-   Self-starter who moves fast and leaves systems better than you found them

 **What success looks like**

-   **Within 30 days:** You've completed a full workflow audit and have a clear, prioritized automation roadmap
-   **Within 90 days:** At least two high-impact automations are live and driving measurable time or cost savings
-   **Within 6 months:** You're a trusted resource with a track record of shipped solutions and real outcomes
-   **Long-term:** You've built a repeatable playbook that defines how Valsoft operationalizes automation across its businesses — and you've got the metrics to prove it
