AI Product Builder / Automation Developer
Build Tools, Automations and Digital Workflows That Power a Growing Business
About Steel Door Company
Steel Door Company is a fast-growing provider of bespoke, high-end internal and external steel doors.
We are investing heavily in technology to digitise and improve our end-to-end customer journey, replacing manual and offline processes with connected digital systems.
We are now hiring an AI Product Builder / Automation Developer to support the development of our growing digital platform and internal systems.
This is not a traditional web development role.
We are looking for someone who enjoys building, experimenting and solving operational problems using modern development tools, automation platforms and AI-assisted workflows.
The Opportunity
You will work closely with the Engineering Lead and wider business to rapidly turn ideas into working tools and systems.
This is a hands-on role spanning customer-facing experiences, internal tooling and business process automation.
You will contribute to building systems that support:
Product configuration and quoting
Sales and enquiry workflows
Internal dashboards and operational tools
Connected business systems and integrations
Future fulfilment and manufacturing workflows
The focus is speed, experimentation and practical problem-solving.
We value builders who can move quickly, learn rapidly and ship useful solutions.
What You’ll DoProduct & Tool Development
Rapidly prototype, build and iterate on digital tools and workflows.
Including:
Configurator and customer experience tools
Sales and quoting workflows
Internal dashboards and admin systems
Operational tooling and process automation
Customer and internal workflow improvements
You will help take ideas from concept to working tools in days rather than months.

Suppliers and operational partners
You’ll work with:
APIs

Including experience or interest in:
GPT / Claude workflows
AI-assisted coding and copilots
Prompt-driven development workflows
Automation and agent-style tooling
Rapid prototyping with AI support
We see AI as a practical development tool that helps teams build and iterate faster.
Technical Environment
We are open to technology choices and value practical engineering judgement over attachment to any particular stack.
Experience may include:
Frontend
Modern frontend frameworks such as React or equivalent
Component-based UI development
Interactive and responsive user experiences

You’ll likely have:
Experience building websites, web applications or digital tools
Strong foundations in HTML, CSS and JavaScript
Exposure to modern frontend frameworks
Comfort working with APIs and integrations
Interest in backend and full-stack development

You will work directly with senior technical leadership and gain hands-on exposure to how modern business systems are designed, connected and scaled.

Success in this role means:
Ideas move from concept to working tools quickly
Internal teams rely on systems you’ve helped build
Manual processes become increasingly automated
The business becomes more connected and data-driven
