As a Senior Specialist in Robotic Process Automation (RPA) within the Finance Data and Automation team at Agoda, you will play a crucial role in delivering key automation initiatives for various Finance stakeholders. Reporting to the Manager (RPA), you will have the opportunity to contribute to AI projects as well. Your responsibilities will involve collaborating closely with Finance users and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to understand and design high-quality automations, taking ownership of initiatives end-to-end. A successful candidate in this position will be a trusted partner to the business, providing automation solutions by re-engineering processes. This role is based in Bangkok with relocation provided for expat candidates. In this role, you will have the chance to work closely with stakeholders from different verticals in Finance, consulting them to propose the most suitable automation solutions. You will be responsible for building, managing, and optimizing end-to-end automations while ensuring security and compliance aspects are met. Additionally, you will become familiar with the finance ecosystem at Agoda and work with Gen AI technology to deliver efficiency-saving automation projects. To succeed in this role, you should have an Undergraduate/Postgraduate degree and at least 8 years of experience with RPA tools, process mining tools, and OCR. While 10+ years of experience is ideal, it is not mandatory. Mandatory tools include Power Automate, Celonis, and Rossum, with desirable skills in Blue Prism, Alteryx, Blue Prism Process Intelligence (BPPI), and Interact. You should have demonstrated experience in the end-to-end delivery of at least 5 processes using Power Automate Desktop, as well as full-stack development expertise with frameworks like Django, React JS, Node JS, and Bootstrap. Proficiency in advanced programming and Gen AI implementation using JavaScript, Python, and vector embedding databases is essential. A high sense of ownership, growth mindset, and ability to be self-directed are key qualities for success in this role. Moreover, you should establish robust RPA governance and maintain strong control over bots to ensure a high Bot utilization factor. Excellent communication skills and the ability to influence peers and build strong relationships within Finance and cross-functionally are important. Advanced Excel skills are also required. It would be advantageous if you have accounting/financial knowledge, commercial acumen, experience in full-stack development (UI/UX, API dev, backend, Postgres DB), familiarity with scrum/agile methodology, and skills in Hadoop, Celonis Certification, and Power Automate Desktop Certification.
