I am looking for a hands-on automation developer to help build, adapt, and debug business automations.
I already have the process designed and partly built. I am not looking for a consultant to redesign the workflow. I need someone practical who can take clear instructions, screenshots, existing scripts, and working examples, then implement and test the required changes.
The current work involves automating invoice and stock processing workflows using Power Automate Desktop, AutoIT, Python, Excel templates, and some API/AI-assisted data extraction.
We already have a working automation for one process, and now need to adapt and extend it for similar processes. The work involves desktop UI automation against legacy software, so the right person must be comfortable dealing with old systems where clicks, tabs, selectors, window focus, delays, and validation checks matter.
Main Responsibilities
You will help with:
Building and updating Power Automate Desktop flows
Editing and debugging AutoIT scripts
Handling legacy Windows desktop application automation
Working with UI selectors, window titles, controls, buttons, tabs, and field validation
Adding delays, retries, and fallback logic where needed
Updating scripts based on process-specific logic
Reading values from Excel/CSV templates
Supporting Python helper scripts for extraction and data processing
Using regex to extract values from invoice text/PDFs
Handling PDF invoice data extraction
Passing variables between PAD, AutoIT, and Python
Creating or improving logging and error handling
Helping make the automation stable enough to run with minimal manual intervention
Current Technology Stack

Power Automate Desktop
AutoIT
Python
Excel / CSV processing
