THE OPPORTUNITY
You will serve as the primary architect and builder of AI-powered solutions within the Kraken People team. This is a full-stack ownership role spanning opportunity identification, solution design, deployment, governance, and transfer capability back to the People team so they can maintain and extend what you build.
You’ll work at the intersection of AI/LLM engineering and HR systems—turning manual, fragmented People processes into autonomous, agentic workflows that serve thousands of Krakenites globally. This is hands-on engineering with direct business impact, not experimentation. Responsibilities:
DESIGN AND DEPLOY AI-POWERED HR SOLUTIONS
- Architect and build agentic workflows using n8n, Claude API, Python, and MCP that take real actions in HR processes with appropriate human oversight and approval gates.
- Build multi-agent systems with tool use, function calling, and multi-step reasoning that connect fragmented HR tools (HRIS, ATS, payroll, ticketing) into coherent, end-to-end workflows.
- Build error handling, audit trails, payroll-calendar awareness, and human-in-the-loop checkpoints into every production system before deployment.
- Ensure all automations comply with data classification requirements for employee PII, regulated data, and cross-jurisdictional privacy obligat
