Automation Architect (n8n | AI Systems | Client-Facing)

We’re not looking for someone who “uses n8n.”
We’re looking for someone who thinks in systems, breathes in workflows, and gets a little thrill when everything just… runs.

If you’ve ever looked at a messy process and thought, "This could be automated in 3 nodes and a webhook," you’ll feel at home here.

You’ll be the bridge between raw ideas and working automations and between non-technical founders and clean, scalable systems.

What You’ll Actually Do

 Build Like a Pro

• Architect, build, and optimize n8n workflows across sales, ops, onboarding, and internal systems
• Turn chaotic processes into clean, reliable automations
• Debug like a detective. Refactor like an artist.
• Write and maintain JavaScript inside n8n without breaking things (most of the time)
• Ensure workflows are scalable, documented, and reusable

Talk Tech Without Sounding Like a Robot

• Run live client sessions to troubleshoot, guide, and build in real time
• Translate “I want this to work” into actual working automations
• Explain complex systems in a way that doesn’t make people’s eyes glaze over
• Be the calm voice when things break (because they will)
  

Connect the Dots

• Integrate n8n with:
• CRMs, Airtable, Google Sheets
• APIs, webhooks, databases, SaaS tools
• Build flows for:
• Data syncing
• Trigger-based automations
• Scheduled workflows
• Data enrichment pipelines
  

Think Beyond Tasks

• Spot patterns in client problems and turn them into repeatable solutions
• Improve templates, systems, and overall workflow architecture
• Collaborate with delivery, ops, and consultants to level up everything

You’ll Crush This Role If You…

• Have serious hands-on n8n experience (non-negotiable)
• Understand APIs, webhooks, and automation logic like second nature
• Can write/debug JavaScript without panic-Googling every line
• Have built workflows that actually survive in production
• Are comfortable jumping between tools, systems, and edge cases

Soft Skills That Actually Matter

• You can run client calls without sounding unsure or overwhelmed
• You explain things clearly, even to non-technical people
• You stay composed when things break and fix them fast
• You take ownership instead of waiting for instructions

 Bonus Points If You…

• Have worked with Airtable, CRMs, or data-heavy systems
• Have played around with AI or LLM integrations
• Have experience in consulting, solutions engineering, or tech support
• Have supported founders or fast-moving teams

 The Vibe

This isn’t a “ticket-based” role.
This is a figure-it-out, build-it, make-it-work kind of environment.

You’ll thrive here if you:

• Like solving problems no one has documented yet
• Enjoy both deep work and human interaction
• Take pride in systems that just work
  About AI Acquisition
• AI Acquisition is a global AI consulting and enablement platform helping founders, agencies, and businesses design, launch, and scale AI-powered services. We operate a hybrid model combining Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), consulting, and execution—supporting clients across the US and globally.
• Our work goes beyond tooling. We help clients design systems, implement automation, and operate scalable workflows across sales, marketing, operations, and delivery—using AI, APIs, and modern automation stacks.
  

• Work hands-on with real client systems, not internal-only tooling
• Build production-grade n8n workflows used daily by founders and operators
• Be client-facing: influence outcomes, not just infrastructure
• Operate in a fast-moving, high-ownership environment
• Expand your skills across automation, APIs, AI, and solution design

This is not a back-office automation role. You will be building, explaining, troubleshooting, and evolving systems with clients live.

• Strong hands-on experience with n8n (required)
• Solid understanding of automation logic, APIs, and webhooks
• Ability to write and debug JavaScript within automation tools
• Experience building workflows that run reliably at scale
• Comfort working across multiple tools and systems

• Comfortable running client-facing calls
• Able to explain technical concepts in a clear, structured way
• Confident guiding clients through setup, troubleshooting, and best practices
• Calm, professional, and solutions-oriented when issues arise

• High ownership and accountability
• Comfortable working independently in a fast-moving environment
• Organized, reliable, and proactive
• Enjoys problem-solving and continuous learning

• Experience with Airtable, CRMs, or data-heavy workflows
• Exposure to AI/LLM integrations
• Background in consulting, solutions engineering, or technical support
• Experience supporting founders or non-technical clients

Please submit:

• Your CV
• Examples of n8n workflows you’ve built (screenshots, explanations, or demos are fine)
• Optional: GitHub, Loom walkthroughs, or documentation samples

We care less about buzzwords and more about how you think, build, and communicate.
