• Establish and enforce RPA development best practices, including governance, documentation standards, and code quality guidelines.
• Provide mentoring and technical guidance to junior developers (internal or vendor resources) as the team scales.
• Ensure adherence to security, compliance, and SDLC practices throughout all phases of development.
• Collaborate with IT and business functions to ensure smooth integration of RPA bots with existing systems.
• Stay current on advancements in RPA, AI, cognitive services, and intelligent automation to propose innovative solutions.
• Support proposal creation, solution design, and Statement of Work (SOW) development as needed.

• Bachelor's or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
• 5+ years of experience in RPA software development or process automation, with at least 2+ years in a technical leadership or RPA lead capacity.

• Proficiency in programming/scripting languages such as VB.NET, C#, Python, JavaScript, or equivalent.
• Deep understanding of automation frameworks (e.g., REFramework)
• Experience managing full RPA development lifecycle and troubleshooting deployed bots for performance and stability.
• Solid experience with Agile methodologies and traditional SDLC approaches.
• RPA certification (UiPath Advanced RPA Developer, Automation Anywhere Master, etc.) strongly preferred.
• Familiarity with DevOps pipelines, CI/CD practices, and cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, or GCP) is a plus.
