Senior Automation Engineer in Tamarac, Florida at Prestige International Insurance Gr Inc

Position Summary:

Prestige Trucking Insurance is seeking a Senior Automation Engineer (AI, Systems & Infrastructure) to design, build, and own the automation systems that will fundamentally transform how the company operates. This role focuses on eliminating manual, repetitive, and error‑prone workflows across insurance operations by implementing robust, scalable automation solutions. This is a senior‑level role with full ownership over automation strategy and execution. The Senior Automation Engineer will work directly with leadership and internal teams to understand real insurance workflows and replace them with well‑engineered automation systems.

• Replace manual workflows across submissions, quoting, renewals, endorsements, policy servicing, and carrier portals
• Automate workflows involving email ingestion, PDF processing, OCR, document classification, and web portals
• Build multi‑step, orchestrated automation pipelines rather than one‑off scripts
• Work directly with internal teams to understand existing processes and redesign them for automation
• Develop and maintain a centralized automation platform with logging, monitoring, error handling, and recovery
• Make architecture and tooling decisions that balance speed, scalability, cost, and long‑term reliability
• Implement AI and LLM integrations where appropriate to improve efficiency and accuracy (not as a black box)
• Design systems that interface with carrier portals, agency management systems, and internal tools
• Ensure automation solutions are secure, auditable, and resilient
• Translate business workflows into technical systems with clear documentation
• Define timelines, milestones, and execution plans for automation initiatives
