Senior Automation Engineer

The position is accountable for raising the level of automation across Falck's digital infrastructure and for the technical direction of that automation agenda. Based in Strategic Initiatives – new established part of Digital Infrastructure & Operations. The role is equally advisory and hands-on, combining advisory technical engagement with the infrastructure product teams with direct, hands-on engineering delivery. It assesses automation maturity and advises the product teams on engineering standards and roadmap direction towards DevOps practices, without dictating those roadmaps. It drives the building of Infrastructure-as-Code, CI/CD pipelines, API integrations and machine learning-supported automation that connect existing infrastructure with digital operations via collaboration with specialized teams. It also evaluates the AI, ML and automation capabilities offered by infrastructure vendors, and technically reviews and tests deliverables from Falck's outsourcing partner, entering into dialogue with the vendor on the best solution.

A key focus is to collaborate effectively with third-party providers and drive results for Falck. These results include increased automation coverage across the in-scope infrastructure domains, infrastructure changes delivered through pipelines rather than manual execution, and documented recommendations that inform architecture and sourcing decisions. Falck has outsourced key infrastructure services, primarily to HCL.
