AI Automation Engineer

An AI Automation Engineer builds intelligent workflows that make AI do things, not just say things.

Become a certified AI Automation Engineer and learn how to build intelligent, no-code workflows that turn AI into action. This course is designed for professionals who want to move beyond prompt engineering and start using AI to automate real-world tasks across content creation, customer support, marketing, and operations.

As an AI Automation Engineer, you’ll gain hands-on experience with tools like Zapier, Make, n8n, LangChain, and OpenAI. You’ll learn to integrate LLMs into business processes, connect APIs, deploy function-calling, and build retrieval-augmented workflows (RAG). By the end of the course, you’ll have built multiple working automations and be prepared for the next step in the AI Agent+ certification track, entirely achieved through the AI Agent Manager Program.
