Operations Automation Engineer

About Brunae Body

Brunae Body is one of Australia's fastest-growing beauty & wellness brands, redefining tanning and skincare with natural, innovative products.

We're a young, ambitious, high-performance team - and we're looking for an
automations wizard
to join us and build the systems that power our scale.

The Role

This is not a traditional operations role. As
Operations Automation Engineer
, you'll own the backbone of Brunae Body's global supply chain
while coding, automating, and engineering proprietary processes
that remove manual work and future-proof our operations.

You'll work across inventory, procurement, logistics, finance, and systems - combining
hands-on ops execution
with
technical problem-solving
to design processes that scale.

Key Responsibilities

3PL Coordination & Order Support

  • Monitor and resolve order issues, delays, and discrepancies.
  • Ensure SLAs and customer delivery expectations are consistently met.

Procurement & Ordering

  • Raise and manage purchase orders with suppliers.
  • Coordinate inbound shipments, freight forwarding, and customs clearance.
  • Negotiate lead times and align production with demand forecasts.

Systems & Process Engineering

  • Manage and optimise our stock management system (Cin7).
  • Build automations and integrations across Shopify, Cin7, Xero, Klaviyo, and 3PL platforms.
  • Write scripts or use APIs (Python/SQL/Zapier/Make) to remove manual steps and engineer proprietary workflows.
  • Maintain SOPs and improve processes to ensure efficiency and accuracy.

Cross-Functional Support

  • Partner with marketing to plan inventory for launches and promos.
  • Support finance with accurate COGS, landed cost, and margin reporting.
  • Assist with compliance and documentation for international distribution.

Continuous Improvement & Automation

  • Identify bottlenecks and build solutions that eliminate them.
  • Execute strategies for cost savings in supply chain and logistics.
  • Drive adoption of automation tools and ensure the team leverages systems fully.

About You

  • Degree in
    Engineering, Computer Science, Data/Analytics, or related
    .
  • Hands-on coding experience (Python, SQL, HTML or similar).
  • Strong experience with AI
  • Strong skills in building
    automations (Zapier, Make, APIs, custom scripts)
    .
  • Excellent problem-solver - you thrive on building elegant solutions to messy processes.
  • Strong organisational skills to manage suppliers, 3PLs, and stock across multiple regions.
  • Comfortable working at speed in a fast-growing startup.
  • Passion for tech, e-commerce, and building things that
    just work
    .

What we Offer

  • Competitive Salary Package
  • A hybrid role where you'll
    own core operations AND engineer proprietary systems
    .
  • Direct mentorship and exposure to the founders of a fast-scaling consumer brand.
  • Real impact: your work will be the backbone that enables Brunae Body to scale globally.
  • A young, driven culture that values speed, problem-solving, and innovation.
