AI in this role
Your mission
As our AI Automation Engineer, you will be the driving force behind scaling efficiency at Cosuno. As the expert for Cosuno’s automation stack, you will partner with teams across the company to identify, design, and implement AI-driven workflows that transform their work. Rather than building or training proprietary models from scratch, you will leverage state-of-the-art existing models and reasoning chains to solve business problems.
As part of the product team, you will collaborate closely with the CEO & CTO to ensure all solutions are technically sound and aligned with our core infrastructure. This is an execution-heavy role where success is measured by the speed and reliability of the modular automation platform you build.
Key responsibilities
Discovery & Prioritization: Partner with Finance, Sales, Ops & Product to identify high-ROI automation opportunities & evaluate them based on business impact versus technical effort.
Workflow Engineering: Design, prototype, and deploy end-to-end AI workflows by building our orchestration stack (e.g., n8n, Vector Databases) and connecting various endpoints via APIs to build a universal memory for Cosuno.
Scaling & Modularity: Build solutions that are modular and reusable across different departments to avoid "reinventing the wheel" for every new request.
Enablement & Governance: Establish AI guardrails, while enabling AI champions in other departments to work with the automations themselves.
Monitoring & Optimization: Define and track success metrics (ROI, time saved, reliability) to ensure automations deliver continuous value.
Your profile
The "Product" Mindset: You treat internal tools like products. You prioritize ruthlessly and focus on business value over "perfect code” or "beautiful UI”.
Technical Fluency: You are proficient in Python, n8n, and API architecture. You have hands-on experience with RAG and connecting LLMs to proprietary data sources.
Applied AI Focus: You prefer building “Reasoning Chains” and integrating existing tools over training custom models.
Systems Thinker: You see the company as a series of interconnected data flows. You naturally see patterns and build modular solutions that scale across teams.
Change Agent: You have experience driving organizational change and can explain complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders with ease.
Pragmatic Innovator: You would rather ship a working automation in two weeks than a perfect one in six months, and you have the commercial sense to block non-feasible requests.
Why us
Applied AI, Not R&D: You won’t spend months training models that never go live. You’ll leverage the modern stack (LLMs, Vector DBs, n8n) to ship high-impact automations that solve real business problems immediately.
Uncapped Leverage: Construction is one of the last undigitized global industries. We aren't optimizing ad-clicks; we are building the digital nervous system for the physical world. Your efficiency gains here have a massive multiplier effect.
Strategic Ownership: You aren’t hidden in a silo. Collaborating directly with different team leads in the company, you have the autonomy to identify bottlenecks and build the infrastructure that allows Cosuno to scale.

Skills and AI tools this role asks for
Questions you could be asked
- How would you design a retrieval step so the model answers from real data instead of guessing?
- Tell me about a workflow you automated with AI tools, end to end.
- What are the limits of N8n that you've run into, and how did you work around them?
- Describe a typical day in a role like this one: which parts run through AI directly?
- If you removed AI from this role, what would be left, and how do you decide what still needs a human?
Adapt your resume
- List these exact terms on your resume: RAG, AI Automation, and N8n. An applicant tracking system matches the wording, not the idea.
- Attach one line of real, concrete experience to at least one of them. A tool named with nothing behind it rarely survives a human read.
- Show where AI is part of your daily process, not a one-off project. This role expects it to be a running habit.
