Ambitious e-commerce business
AI Operations Specialist
You find repetitive work in e-commerce and remove it: with automation, with AI, or simply with a better process.
- AI
- Mid-level
- Northern Netherlands · On-site
- Full-time
- €3,000 – €4,000 gross per month
About the role
You'll join an ambitious e-commerce business in the north of the Netherlands: a growth agency or a brand that sells directly. The goal isn't more AI tools, it's less unnecessary work. You investigate how work actually gets done, from reporting and product data to translations, feeds, customer service and CRM, and turn it into reliable systems. Sometimes with AI, sometimes with automation, and sometimes by simply redesigning the process.
What success looks like
- A process that took 30 hours a week now takes five
- A weekly three-hour analysis is generated and checked in 15 minutes
- Product data is enriched automatically instead of by hand
- Problems are detected automatically instead of found by chance
- Less repetitive work, fewer errors and more output per person
What you'll do
- Map recurring workflows and find unnecessary manual work
- Quantify how much time and money processes cost today, and prioritise opportunities on impact, complexity and risk
- Build automations yourself and connect APIs, systems and data sources
- Use AI models where they make work faster or better, with a human in the loop where full automation doesn't fit
- Build internal tools where existing software falls short
- Test before going live, monitor whether things keep working, and document what you build
- Train colleagues in new ways of working, and work with engineers when something needs to become proper software
What you bring
- Experience with automation, software, data or technical e-commerce operations
- You understand APIs and how systems talk to each other
- Hands-on experience with modern AI models, beyond prompts in ChatGPT
- You build yourself, for example with n8n, Python or JavaScript, SQL, webhooks and the APIs of Shopify, Klaviyo, Google or Meta
- You ask first: can this be simpler, and does it really need AI?
- Reliability matters to you: validation, error handling, logging, permissions and a way back
- Repetitive manual work irritates you, and you talk easily with technical and non-technical colleagues
What you get in return
- A role with visible, measurable impact on how work gets done
- Room to build yourself, not just advise
- Real e-commerce processes and data to work with
- Short lines with engineers and management
- A workplace in the north of the Netherlands
- A salary that fits your experience
- Support from Cruitor, also after you start
