micro1 is looking for a Director of Talent Automation who will expand talent operations using advanced automation.

The job is deeply technical and hands-on, suited to an AI engineer with good product sense. You'll own much of where the product and the technology go, in close partnership with Ops Engineering and Talent Operations.

Scope of Work

• Plan, design, and build a Department Agent for Talent Operations (TO) that handles expert operations from start to finish, drawing on workflow automation and process-improvement methods.
• Combine LLMs (large language models) with full-stack builds to automate the main operational processes, letting the business scale with very little hands-on effort.
• Partner with Operations Engineering specialists to pin down requirements, chart user journeys, and build sturdy automated workflows.
• Find, assess, and add third-party integrations that strengthen automation and make operations more efficient.
• Keep refining automated systems using feedback, performance data, and changing business needs.
• Document solutions and keep stakeholders informed with short, clear written and spoken updates.
• Take strong ownership of delivering and evolving the TO Dept Agent, concentrating on edge cases that need human judgment.

Preferred Qualifications

• Shown expertise in improving processes and automating workflows, ideally in talent or operations.
• A history of working as an AI engineer, or of building products on LLMs (large language models).
• Full-stack development skill, including current frameworks and deployment practice.
• At ease connecting APIs and outside platforms to extend what a system can do.
• Outstanding writing and speaking, especially explaining technical ideas to different audiences.
• Experience as an engineering founder, product owner, or product specialist counts strongly.
• Clearly collaborative, able to work alone while partnering closely with experts from other teams.
