We build weirdly smart systems that make work less... work. strangebrain is a fully remote, work-from-anywhere company built for people who want flexibility and impact. As a Solutions Engineer, you’ll design automations, connect platforms, and deploy AI-powered workflows that actually get used — not lost in a backlog or buried in a slide deck. This role is part engineer, part consultant, part automation detective. You’ll be solving real business problems for real humans — turning messy workflows into clean, scalable systems. Work where you want. Build things that matter. Automate the stuff nobody wants to do.
Description
Overview
strangebrain is hiring a Intelligent Systems Engineer (Automation & AI) to help us design and build intelligent systems that reshape how work gets done.
This role is ideal for someone who loves solving messy workflow problems, building smart automations, and working directly with clients to design elegant solutions.
You’ll work across integration platforms (like Workato or Tray.io), AI tooling, and custom automation frameworks to connect systems, replace legacy processes, and help our clients operate faster and smarter.
This is a hybrid role (just the work, not the location) — part engineer, part consultant, part automation detective. You’ll have a direct hand in shaping how businesses adapt to the future of work.
Note on Hiring Locations
strangebrain is a fully remote company, but for this role we are only hiring in and around Indiana, specifically Indianapolis, right now. We know that’s a little specific — but we’re growing fast and expanding our hiring locations soon.
What You’ll Do

- Exposure to GenAI tooling (OpenAI, LangChain, prompt engineering) — or curiosity to learn fast
- Comfortable working directly with clients and leading technical conversations
- Bonus: Experience with ServiceNow, RPA platforms, or building internal tooling
