AI Automation Specialist (018-802)

​​Looking for Philippines-based candidates

Job Role: AI Automation Specialist

Compensation range: $2,000 AUD - $2,500 AUD / Monthly

Engagement type:Independent Contractor Agreement

Work Schedule: This role is expected to generally align with AU business hours (approx. 9 AM – 5 PM, Monday to Friday) for collaboration and team availability. However, the client’s preferred working schedule is 6:30 AM – 2:30 PM Brisbane time / 4:30 AM - 12:30 PM Philippine Time.

Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be engaged directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote so you'll be able to work from home.

Who The Client Is: We are a performance-driven digital marketing agency specialising in lead generation for home improvement and roofing businesses across the United States.

The business focuses on building scalable marketing systems that consistently deliver high-quality leads and measurable growth for clients. It operates with a strong emphasis on structure, efficiency, and results, combining proven acquisition strategies with well-defined processes.

As the company grows, it is expanding into AI and automation to improve internal operations and develop new client-facing solutions. The culture is built around ownership, reliability, and long-term performance.

Role Overview: We are seeking a commercially minded and highly reliable AI Automation Specialist to design, build, and optimise automation systems that enhance both internal operations and client-facing services.

You will play a key role in a growing, systemised digital marketing agency serving US-based home improvement and roofing businesses. This is a newly created position with significant scope to shape how AI is embedded across the business—from internal workflows to scalable client solutions.

Initially, your focus will be on building and improving internal automation systems. Over time, you will support the rollout of AI-driven services externally, contributing to new revenue streams and operational efficiency.

This role is best suited for someone who combines technical capability with business understanding—someone who can think beyond tools and trends, and deliver practical, reliable solutions that drive measurable outcomes.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design and build automation systems using tools such as Claude Code, n8n, and Make
• Develop AI-powered workflows including (but not limited to):
• Voice agents
• Sales analysis and reporting systems
• Dashboards and data pipelines
• Podcast and content automation
• Internal operational tools
• Client-facing automation solutions
• Identify inefficiencies across internal processes and implement scalable automation solutions
• Collaborate with the founder to translate business needs into functional AI systems
• Support the development and rollout of AI services for external clients
• Maintain, optimise, and troubleshoot existing automation systems
• Document workflows and systems to ensure long-term scalability and reliability
• Stay current with AI tools and automation trends, applying them pragmatically (not just experimentally)

Requirements

• 3+ years experience building automation workflows using tools like n8n, Make, Zapier, or similar
• Hands-on experience working with AI tools (e.g. GPT, Claude, APIs, or AI agents)
• Strong understanding of how automation improves business processes and efficiency
• Ability to turn business needs into practical, scalable systems
• Reliable, self-managed, and comfortable working with minimal supervision
• Strong problem-solving skills with a focus on real-world outcomes
• Clear written and verbal communication

Nice to Have

• Experience building AI voice agents or chatbots
• Background in digital marketing, lead generation, or agency work
• Experience with dashboards, reporting, or data visualisation
• Familiarity with CRM systems and sales pipelines

Work Arrangement & Expectations:

This is a remote role that will be set up as an independent contractor engagement.

To ensure alignment and transparency, successful candidates will be expected to:

• Disclose any existing ongoing roles or client work
• Reflect this engagement on their LinkedIn profile (clearly marked as “Independent Contractor”)
