Role Summary

We are looking for a hands-on Automation & Data Platform Engineer to design, build, and maintain workflow automations, event-driven integrations, and data platform pipelines across n8n, Node-RED, and Databricks. This role sits at the intersection of systems integration, workflow orchestration, API engineering, and cloud data operations.

The ideal candidate has deep experience in n8n, strong hands-on experience in Node-RED and/or Databricks, and is comfortable building secure, scalable integrations between business systems, APIs, and data platforms.

Key Responsibilities

Design, build, and maintain production-grade workflows in n8n for business process automation, API orchestration, alerts, approvals, and data movement.

Develop and support Node-RED flows for event-driven integrations, real-time data processing, device/system connectivity, and API-based automations.

Integrate n8n and Node-RED workflows with Databricks jobs, notebooks, SQL warehouses, and REST APIs.

Build automations that trigger Databricks workloads, monitor job status, handle retries, and route outputs to downstream systems.

Work with engineering and data teams to move data reliably between SaaS systems, internal services, and the Databricks platform.

Implement authentication, secret handling, logging, observability, and error handling across all workflows.

Create reusable templates, shared components, and best practices for low-code and API-led integration development.

Support CI/CD, testing, version control, and deployment processes for automation and data platform assets.

Document workflows, integration patterns, operational runbooks, and architecture decisions.

Must-Have Requirements

Strong hands-on experience with n8n in production environments.

Good practical experience with Node-RED for event-driven flows, REST integrations, and workflow development.

Good practical experience with Databricks, especially jobs, notebooks, SQL, and platform/API integration.

Solid understanding of REST APIs, webhooks, JSON, OAuth2, API keys, and service-to-service authentication.

Experience with JavaScript/TypeScript and at least one scripting language used around data or automation, such as Python.

Experience with Docker, Git, and CI/CD pipelines.

Strong debugging skills across distributed workflows and API-based integrations.

Ability to design reliable automations with retry logic, idempotency, monitoring, and alerting.

Preferred Requirements

Experience with Databricks Jobs API, SQL Statement Execution API, or other Databricks platform APIs.

Experience integrating workflow tools with data platforms, message queues, or event streams.

Familiarity with cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or GCP.

Experience with PostgreSQL, Delta/SQL, or other operational and analytical data stores.

Exposure to governance, access control, secrets management, and auditability in regulated environments.

Experience with IoT, telemetry, or operational systems is a plus if Node-RED will be used beyond pure SaaS integration.

What Success Looks Like

Critical automations are stable, monitored, and easy to support.

Databricks workloads can be triggered and managed cleanly from integration workflows.

Reusable patterns reduce one-off flow sprawl across n8n and Node-RED.

Business and data teams can rely on secure, documented, production-ready integrations.
