• Build production-grade systems using webhooks, retry logic, queues, structured logs, real-time alerts, and recovery processes.

• Create operational dashboards, runbooks, and structured documentation with version control.

Requirements

Must-have qualifications


• Proven background building advanced GHL + Zapier or n8n automations involving API/webhook integrations.

• Strong proficiency in monitoring frameworks, idempotent workflow design, logging, retries, and error handling.

• Excellent documentation and communication skills — flow screenshots + short Loom walkthrough encouraged.

Nice-to-have


• Basic scripting in JavaScript or Python; knowledge of Stripe + LLM-powered tool integrations.

• Experience with clinical, medical, or regulated dataset workflows.

Benefits

Compensation & performance bonuses

Retainer: USD $1,000–$1,500 per month depending on scope and SLAs.
Performance incentive: USD $500 per month for KPI over-performance.

Payment & contractor terms

Independent Contractor arrangement only. Paid in USD via Wise or bank transfer. Monthly retainer invoicing. No employee benefits; performance-based paid time off available.

How to apply


• Submit two screenshots showing your most complex automations + a 2-minute Loom covering retries, idempotency, and monitoring.

• Schedule a 16-minute AI one-way prescreen video interview.

• Complete a role-related technical task.
