VP Of Automation Engineering - Remote Eligible

VP Of Automation Engineering

At Huzzle, we connect high-performing professionals with global companies across the UK, US, Canada, Europe, and Australia. Our clients include startups, digital agencies, and tech platforms in industries like SaaS, MarTech, FinTech, and EdTech. We match top talent to full-time remote roles where they're hired directly into client teams and provided ongoing support by Huzzle.

Our client is an operator-led, AI-powered revenue systems company building next-generation go-to-market (GTM) infrastructure for scaling businesses. They design automation-first revenue engines that transform real-time market signals into predictable pipeline growth.

With a deeply AI-native stack—including workflow automation, LLM-powered systems, and custom-built internal products—they support companies scaling from $1M to $100M+ ARR. Engineering is not a support function here—it is the company's competitive advantage.
