Automation Implementation Specialist

Want to implement automations in day-to-day operations?

At MakesYouLocal, we help ambitious e-commerce brands grow across borders. To support our growing use of automation, internal tools, and operational technology, we are now looking for an Automation Implementation Specialist to help ensure that our systems are implemented well, run reliably, and deliver value in daily work.

This is a hands-on role close to real operations. If you enjoy making systems work in practice, fixing friction, and gradually taking on more responsibility as you grow, this might be your next move.

The role – hands-on and close to operations

As our new Automation Implementation Specialist, you will play a key role in ensuring that automation and internal tools work as intended across the organisation. You will work with roll-outs, configurations, follow-up, and support, and help connect technical decisions with everyday usage.

You will work closely with the Automation & AI Lead and act as a bridge between system design and daily operational reality.

Here's what you'll be doing

• Taking ownership of how systems behave in daily work, ensuring clarity and reliability

• Acting as a central point of contact for operational questions related to automation and tools

• Supporting implementations of features across systems, automations, and internal setups

• Ensuring configurations, routines, and follow-up are in place to keep solutions stable

• Investigating issues, troubleshooting, and escalating complex cases when needed

• Maintaining documentation and communicating clearly when changes are made

• Working with internal teams to identify recurring manual work or inefficiencies that consume unnecessary time

• Supporting better use of existing tools

• Contributing to prioritisation by sharing insights from day-to-day operational reality

This is not a "sit and wait" kind of job. You will be close to the action and help make systems actually work for the people using them.

What we're looking for

You are comfortable working with digital tools used in daily operations and enjoy helping others use systems correctly and confidently.

You

• Have experience working with operational digital tools such as customer service platforms, order management systems, automation tools, or reporting systems

• Have been involved in implementing, supporting, or maintaining systems others rely on in their daily work

• Are curious about how systems connect, including a basic understanding of APIs

• Have a background in operations, customer service, e-commerce, or implementation-focused roles, which is an advantage but not a requirement

• Speak and write fluent English

What it's like working with us

We take our work seriously, but not ourselves. You will join an international, informal, and ambitious company where people support each other, share knowledge, and take ownership.

You will work closely with colleagues across teams and markets in a culture built on trust, responsibility, and continuous improvement.

What you'll get

• Full-time position in the Technology & Infrastructure team

• Full onboarding and training in our tools and ways of working

• Close collaboration and day-to-day support from the Automation & AI Lead and the rest of the team

• Clear expectations, regular feedback, and room to grow in the role
  
  

Location: Copenhagen, Denmark

Type: Full-time (or part-time until graduation in the summer, followed by full-time)
