Role Overview
The Junior AI & Automation Engineer is a hands-on builder role within K Group’s AI and Automation practice. This role focuses on the design, construction, and iteration of automation workflows, AI-assisted integrations, and internal tooling that the practice delivers to clients and deploys internally.
This is not a help-desk role. It’s not a ticket queue. It’s a make-things-work role for someone who gets excited about connecting systems that weren’t designed to talk to each other — and figures out what’s possible when they do. The ideal candidate thrives on turning ambiguous problems into working, practical systems and takes ownership of what they build.
