Senior Automation & Data Infrastructure Engineer (Remote)

Imagine building the operating system behind a modern accounting firm. Every automation you launch saves hours. Every dashboard you improve drives smarter decisions. Every workflow you build makes hundreds of people more effective. That's this role.

ABOUT THE ROLE

You'll help shape the future of accounting by designing, building, and maintaining the automation and data infrastructure that powers our business. This isn't a support role—it's a builder role.

You'll own critical reporting systems, AI-powered workflows, and business automations that touch every department. From Power BI dashboards and SQL pipelines to GPT- and Claude-powered solutions, you'll continuously improve how teams work, make decisions, and serve clients.

This is a full-time Independent Contractor role requiring exclusivity after hire.

If you love solving complex operational problems with technology—and get excited watching people actually use what you've built—you'll thrive here.
