The Opportunity
We are hiring a Senior Software Developer to take ownership of how MTLI operates internally.
This role is responsible for automating workflows across every department, eliminating inefficiencies, and building a scalable operating system that supports high-volume project execution.

3. AI Implementation Across the Business
- Deploy AI tools to:
- Assist with proposal and scope generation
- Automate reporting and documentation
- Improve sales follow-up and communication
- Provide operational insights and dashboards
- Embed AI into daily workflows across teams
4. SOP Development & Standardization
- Convert workflows into repeatable, scalable systems
- Build and document SOPs across all departments
- Ensure consistency across projects, teams, and regions
5. Data & Performance Visibility
- Build dashboards for leadership:
- Revenue and pipeline
- Project performance and margins
- Operational efficiency
- Enable real-time visibility across the business
6. Continuous Improvement
- Identify inefficiencies and fix them quickly
- Test and implement new tools and technologies
- Continuously improve speed, accuracy, and scalability
7. Leadership Growth Path
- Start as a hands-on builder
- Over time:
- Hire and manage automation resources
- Build an internal systems team
- Grow into a true Head/Director-level role
