What We Offer
- Competitive compensation (we believe in paying for cognitive horsepower)
- Real impact: Your solutions will save clients thousands of hours
- Continuous learning: Stay at the forefront of AI and automation

Red Flags (Yup, We're That Transparent)
- If you need heavy supervision, this isn't for you
- If you can't handle ambiguity, you'll hate it here

- You get excited about finding clever solutions
- You've automated your own work before
- You're curious about business, not just tech
