You are probably reading this because you have spent the last few years quietly being the person in your company who actually makes things work. You are the one who built that N8N flow that saved the finance team days of work. The one who rebuilt the CRM after the last consultant left it a mess. The one whose Zapier dashboard is full of active flows and you can tell a story about every single one. And you are a bit bored. Possibly frustrated. Definitely underused. We would like to talk. Who We Are We are Rocketeer Orbit, and we build something genuinely useful. We provide a platform that gives businesses a digital workforce. Not simple chatbots pretending to be helpful, but actual automated workflows that take the heavy admin away from business owners so they can get back to growing their company. The platform is live. Clients are paying. The demand is real, and it is growing faster than we can keep up with, which is exactly why this role exists. What You Will Actually Be Doing You will be joining our delivery team, reporting directly to our Head of Delivery. You will be the person who takes a clearly scoped problem and turns it into a working automation. A typical week might look something like this. Monday morning, the Head of Delivery drops a brief into your queue. A wholesaler in Birmingham is wasting two hours a day manually generating quotes. Our Head of Delivery has already mapped the pain points and managed the client expectations. Your job is to build the solution. By Wednesday, you have designed the workflow logic, built the phase one AI coding in n8n or Make, and pressure tested it. By Friday, you have handed it back to Head of Delivery for client rollout. Alongside building new pods (projects), you will be monitoring our live projects, tracking API token costs, and ensuring everything runs flawlessly without drifting. What you will do: Design and build workflows using low code tools. Execute phase one AI logic building for custom client pods. Monitor live projects to ensure they continue delivering measurable impact. Track API token usage and optimise flows for maximum efficiency. Support your line manager so he can focus on complex project delivery and client strategy. What We Are Looking For We hire for logic, not just keywords. You do not need to know our exact stack on day one. You need the right brain. You will thrive here if you have: A logic brain. You think in flowcharts. You see a messy process and instinctively want to turn it into a clean sequence of if this, then that. Real workflow experience. You have used at least one of these tools extensively such as n8n, Make, Zapier, Salesforce Flow, Power Automate, or something similar. You have broken things, fixed them, and learned. Resilience. Automations break. APIs change. Clients change their minds. You troubleshoot calmly instead of panicking. In our experience, two types of people absolutely fly in this role: The hobbyist turned pro. You have been quietly automating your own life for years. You would like to do it full time, for actual money, with proper equipment. The low code power user. You have built real things with Zapier, Make, n8n, or Power Automate. You want a job where building this logic is your actual job, not just a side hustle to your main work. What You Will Get Salary of £25,000 to £28,000 (depending on experience.) Genuine EMI share options. You are a partner in what we are building, not just an employee. Working life split between our Stafford HQ for collaboration and remote days for deep focus. The chance to join a founding team and shape how we scale our engineering department.
