By driving real-world impact across key operational areas your work will accelerate automation adoption at scale, influencing how digital transformation is executed across the company.

Growth

The position offers substantial career growth through exposure to large-scale business process automation within a complex healthcare enterprise. You will gain experience leading end-to-end UiPath development in a production-critical environment while working with senior executives and cross-functional teams. Top performers will have the opportunity to convert to full-time and take on expanded leadership or architectural responsibilities as the program scales.

Motivators

You will be surrounded by a high-impact team that values innovation, accountability, and transformation.

Major Performance Objectives

1. Deliver High-Quality Automations Across Core Healthcare Operations

Within the first 90–120 days, lead the full lifecycle development of UiPath automation solutions across client environment. Leverage the UiPath RE Framework and apply best practices in test-driven development (TDD) to ensure solutions are stable, scalable, and easy to maintain. Collaborate with QA to validate test coverage and ensure deployments meet quality thresholds. Deliverables will be evaluated on code quality, automation throughput, and post-deployment defect rate.

2. Lead Scaling of UiPath Automation Program to Production

By month six, help scale the UiPath automation platform into a stable, production-ready environment. Architect reusable components using C# and .NET Core APIs where integration with external systems is required. Build modular solutions that support robust exception handling, logging, and credential security. Success will be measured by reliability (bot uptime), scalability (jobs scheduled and processed), and business continuity metrics.

3. Support Continuous Improvement Through Root Cause Analysis and Process Optimization

On an ongoing basis, identify opportunities for optimization within both the automation logic and the underlying business process. Use VBScript and other scripting tools as needed to enhance legacy system interactions. Provide recommendations that address root causes of automation failure or inefficiency. Lead iterative releases and retrospectives to drive continuous improvement. Metrics for success include reduced exception rates, increased STP (straight-through processing), and improved SLA adherence.

Critical Subtasks

• Conduct Requirements and Process Analysis Workshops with Stakeholders. Build and Deploy Reusable, Modular UiPath Components.
• Provide Tier-2 Support for UiPath Bots in Production. Mentor Junior Developers and Contribute to UiPath Center of Excellence.
• Collaborate Cross-Functionally on Testing and Deployment Readiness. Document Automation Logic, Test Coverage, and Support Runbooks. Continuously Evaluate and Integrate AI to Improve Performance
