About Wallround
Wallround is headquartered in Berlin, with additional locations in Hamburg, Frankfurt am Main, Munich, Friedrichshafen, and NRW.
Our mission: we turn energy-efficient retrofits for multi-family residential buildings into predictable, lucrative investment opportunities. When it comes to modernisations, the real estate market is often a black box of rough estimates and fragmented processes. We are changing that. Through our integrated platform and streamlined workflow, we transform 'brown assets' into future-proof, high-yield properties.
## About the Role
Department: Prod & Tech
Functional Home: Automation
Reports to: CPO / Head of Product & Technology or designated Engineering Lead
Seniority: Senior
We are looking for a Senior Software Automation Engineer specializing in low-code automation to help us turn manual, repetitive, and fragmented workflows into scalable automated systems.
You will belong to the Automation Team , but your work will be embedded across cross-functional squads. You will collaborate with Product, AI, Software Engineering, and business stakeholders to identify opportunities and rapidly build automation solutions.
This is not simply a workflow-builder role. We are looking for someone who combines software engineering thinking with low-code execution - someone who can understand complex processes, design robust automations, integrate systems, and know when a low-code solution is appropriate versus when custom engineering is required.
Key Responsibilities
Automation Architecture
- Design end-to-end business and product automation workflows.
- Identify opportunities to eliminate repetitive manual processes.
- Build reliable, maintainable, and observable automation systems.
- Design integrations between SaaS platforms, APIs, databases, AI services, and internal applications.
- Establish reusable automation patterns and components.
Low-Code Development
- Build production-grade workflows using leading low-code/no-code platforms.
- Configure APIs, webhooks, triggers, actions, authentication, transformations, and error handling.
- Integrate CRM, ERP, communication, productivity, AI, and internal systems.
- Create automation workflows that can be maintained and extended as the business scales.
AI + Automation
- Combine AI capabilities with workflow automation.
- Build intelligent workflows using LLMs, classification, extraction, enrichment, routing, and decision logic.
- Identify opportunities to use AI where deterministic automation alone is insufficient.
- Partner with AI Engineers to integrate AI capabilities into operational workflows.
Cross-Functional Squad Execution
- Work as an automation specialist inside product squads.
- Translate business and product requirements into automated workflows.
- Collaborate with Product Managers and Engineers to determine the simplest reliable implementation.
- Own automation initiatives from discovery through deployment and optimization.
- Act as a technical advisor on automation feasibility and architecture.
Engineering Quality
- Implement robust error handling, retries, logging, monitoring, and alerting.
- Document workflows and integrations.
- Establish testing and deployment practices for automation.
- Monitor automation performance and continuously optimize workflows.
- Identify technical debt and migrate fragile workflows to more scalable solutions when required.
Dein Profil
What we are looking for
Essential
- 4+ years of experience in software engineering, automation engineering, solutions engineering, or a similar technical role.
- Strong hands-on experience with low-code/no-code automation platforms.
- Strong understanding of APIs, webhooks, JSON, HTTP, authentication, and data transformation.
- Experience integrating multiple SaaS systems.
- Strong understanding of software engineering principles.
- Ability to translate business processes into technical workflows.
- Strong troubleshooting and debugging skills.
- Comfortable working independently in a fast-moving environment.
Strong Plus
- Experience with platforms such as Make, n8n, Zapier, Power Automate, Retool, or similar tools .
- Experience with REST APIs and webhooks.
- Experience integrating LLMs and AI APIs.
- Experience with SQL and databases.
- Basic Python or JavaScript/TypeScript knowledge.
- Experience building internal tools.
- Experience working in a SaaS, startup, or scale-up environment.
Success in the First 6–12 Months
- Establish a scalable automation architecture and standards.
- Automate high-impact manual workflows across the organization and product.
- Build reusable integrations and automation components.
- Reduce manual operational effort and process errors.
- Enable product squads to ship automation faster.
- Create a clear framework for deciding between low-code, AI automation, and custom software engineering.
