Careers / AI Automation Engineer

Open position

AI Automation Engineer

Design the playbooks and pipelines that let humans and virtual employees ship guardrailed automation together — on Magora's own knowledge Brain.

📍 Stockern, Waldviertel, Austria 🕒 Full-time 🎓 No degree required 🏡 Flexitime + home office
Role summary

Automation that thinks in playbooks, not one-off scripts

Magora doesn't just use AI — we build and run fully virtual-managed business divisions where humans and virtual employees collaborate every day. As an AI Automation Engineer, you'll design the pipelines and guardrailed playbooks that let a virtual employee reliably do real work: draft content, qualify leads, close tickets, ship code — with humans reviewing at the right checkpoints.

You'll work directly against our shared knowledge Brain, wiring virtual employees into it so every decision is grounded in real company context instead of guesswork.

Responsibilities

What you'll actually do

  • Design and build automation workflows and playbooks that guide virtual employees through guardrailed, repeatable tasks.
  • Integrate third-party APIs and internal services, and route work across our multi-LLM setup (local + premium models) for the right cost/quality/latency balance per task.
  • Wire virtual employees into the Brain so every task runs on real, current company context — not stale assumptions.
  • Build guardrail playbooks with checkpoints, logging, and human-review gates before anything client-facing ships.
  • Monitor automation quality in production — catch silent failures, regressions, and drift before they reach customers.
  • Partner with department teams across our virtual-managed divisions to turn manual processes into reliable, owned playbooks.
What you'll work with

Our stack for this role

The Brain

A shared knowledge base of context, decisions, and business rules that every automation is grounded in — no more re-explaining the company to a script.

Virtual employees

Persistent AI colleagues with their own scope and memory — you'll give them capabilities, not just prompts.

Playbooks

Pre-trained, guardrailed workflows that guarantee quality and consistency, even when the model underneath changes.

Multi-LLM routing

Local + premium models in harmony — routed per task for cost, speed, and capability.

Universal console

One chat surface to talk to any virtual employee like a colleague — you'll help shape what it can do.

Compute everywhere

Run-from-anywhere infrastructure — your automations aren't tied to one machine or one office.

Requirements

Skill and passion — that's the bar

  • Solid hands-on experience in Python or TypeScript — automation scripts, backend services, or integration work (bootcamp, self-taught, or degree — doesn't matter which).
  • Practical experience integrating third-party APIs, webhooks, or internal services into a working pipeline.
  • A pragmatic, ship-it automation mindset — you'd rather wire up something reliable today than design the perfect system nobody uses.
  • Comfortable working in German or English — most of our team communicates in both.
  • A debugging mindset — you want to know why something failed, not just patch around it.

No degree required. We hire for skill and passion — several of our best engineers are self-taught.
