Core Responsibilities • Engineering & Customization: Design and build large-scale cloud automation.

The AI Edge: • Familiarity with GitHub Copilot and Copilot Studio. • Proven ability to build AI agents or use AI tools to significantly increase development velocity. Specialized Roles within the Team We are also hiring for the following niche functions within the JCL organization: • Automation Quality Engineer: Focus on Selenium-based automation within the Octane (ALM) data quality center. Note: We are not looking for manual testers or SDETs who build pipelines; we need specialists who can write robust test scripts within existing CI/CD frameworks. • Platform Performance Engineer: Focused on "the product of the platform." You will install new products, find performance bottlenecks, and optimize the ecosystem.
