IT Ops Automation Engineer
Overview
At BusPatrol, we’re transforming student transportation safety through cutting-edge technology and real-time automated enforcement. We're seeking an IT Automation Engineer to be at the forefront of our IT Operations evolution—replacing manual toil with code, durable serverless workflows, and reliable integrations across Microsoft 365, Azure, Freshservice, Jira, and our line-of-business platforms (AlertBus, Console, NetSuite, OpenPath, Five9, Tableau, Ashby, and more).
You will lead the design, build, and operation of these automations end-to-end—a hands-on engineering role embedded in the IT Service Operations & Enablement (ITSOE) team. You will own production Azure Function Apps, Azure Automation runbooks, Power Automate flows, and Playwright-driven web automations that replace manual, repeatable processes in IT operations.
You’ll collaborate with ITSOE leadership, service desk agents, and business partners to identify high-volume, manual work and replace it with reliable, observable, well-tested automations—moving the team from reactive ticket processing to proactive platform enablement.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, build, deploy, and support secure IT automations across Azure, Power Platform, and related enterprise platforms using least-privilege and production-ready standards.
- Develop and maintain automation solutions using TypeScript/Node.js, PowerShell, and Python, selecting the right toolset for each use case.
- Administer and optimize Azure services that support automation, including Function Apps, Automation Accounts, Logic Apps, Storage, Key Vault, Service Bus, and monitoring tools.
- Build and support event-driven, scheduled, and API-based workflows that improve IT service delivery, onboarding, offboarding, access management, and audit processes.
- Create and maintain integrations across core business systems such as Freshservice, Jira, Microsoft 365, Entra ID, SharePoint, and other SaaS platforms.
- Perform ticket and operational data analysis to identify high-value automation opportunities by evaluating volume, repeatability, business impact, process stability, and technical feasibility.
- Use data insights to recommend and prioritize automation candidates that reduce manual effort, improve cycle time, and strengthen service quality.
- Apply sound engineering practices including testing, source control, CI/CD, logging, error handling, documentation, and reusable design patterns.
- Monitor automation health and performance through dashboards, telemetry, alerting, and trend analysis, and continuously improve reliability and business outcomes.
- Establish and document standards for selecting the appropriate automation runtime, architecture, and support model for each workflow.
- Partner with Service Desk and IT Operations teams to refine processes, reduce operational friction, and mentor others in automation best practices.
Preferred Qualifications
- 3+ years building production automations in an internal IT, IT Ops, or Service Desk engineering context (L2/L3 or beyond).
- Strong hands-on experience with TypeScript / Node.js and Azure Function Apps, including:
- Durable Functions (orchestrators, activities, fan-out/fan-in, sub-orchestrations, eternal orchestrations).
- HTTP, Timer, Queue, Service Bus, and Blob triggers.
- Retry policies, exponential backoff, idempotent activities, and dead-lettering.
- Production experience with Playwright (Node.js / TypeScript), including:
- Microsoft SSO / Entra login flows and stored auth state.
- Page Object Model, role-based locators, trace/video capture.
- Running at scale via Microsoft Playwright Workspaces or equivalent (Azure Container Apps, self-hosted runners).
- Strong Power Automate (cloud flows) skills — SharePoint, Outlook, Teams, HTTP with Entra ID, Dataverse, custom connectors, approvals, and scheduled flows.
- Hands-on with Azure Automation runbooks (PowerShell 7 and/or Python), including webhooks, schedules, hybrid workers, and shared modules.
- Working knowledge of Microsoft Graph API (SharePoint site usage, Entra ID users/groups, license assignment, mail, calendar) and Azure Blob Storage (lifecycle policies, SAS, Managed Identity access).
- REST API integration experience with Freshservice and Jira Cloud — auth, pagination, custom fields, custom objects, webhooks, and the Freshservice Service Catalog.
Nice to Have
- Logic Apps Standard for stateful, connector-heavy orchestrations.
- Azure Service Bus / Event Grid for cross-platform event fan-out.
- Application Insights + Log Analytics (KQL) dashboards and alerting; Azure Workbooks authoring.
- Power Apps (canvas + model-driven) and Dataverse for self-service portals and structured ops data.
- Azure Document Intelligence / Form Recognizer for OCR pipelines on inbound mail or citation documents.
- Microsoft 365 admin depth: Entra ID lifecycle workflows, conditional access, Intune device compliance, SharePoint admin, Exchange Online, Teams.
- Freshservice Workflow Automator, Custom Objects, Onboarding/Offboarding modules, and Freshservice Analytics.
- Integrations with Ashby, NetSuite, Salesforce, Tableau, OpenPath, Five9, or 1Password via API or SCIM.
- Cross-platform observability tooling.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding TN Visa Sponsorship as an IT Operations Analyst
Align your credentials to the right USMCA category
TN visa classification for IT Operations Analysts falls under Computer Systems Analyst. Your degree must be in computer science, information systems, or engineering. A degree in an unrelated field, even with years of IT experience, will create problems at the border or consulate.
Target employers experienced with visa sponsorship
Search Migrate Mate's database of employers with recent visa filings to find companies that regularly sponsor work visa positions in IT operations roles. Employers experienced with visa sponsorship already understand work authorization processes, which shortens the sponsorship conversation and reduces the risk of a first-time employer making procedural errors.
Prepare a role-specific support letter before offers arrive
Draft a template support letter that maps your IT operations duties to the Computer Systems Analyst definition. Having this ready lets you help a sponsoring employer respond quickly, and it reduces back-and-forth that can delay your start date.
Negotiate employer-paid TN filing costs upfront
TN sponsorship costs are modest compared to H-1B visa, but Mexican nationals requiring consular processing face additional fees. Raise this during the offer stage, not after signing. Most employers experienced with visa sponsorship expect to cover these costs.
Use Migrate Mate to find IT Operations Analyst roles with confirmed TN sponsorship
Filtering generic job boards for TN-eligible roles wastes time. Migrate Mate surfaces IT Operations Analyst positions at employers with recent visa filings, so you're applying to companies experienced with work visa sponsorship and more likely to support your TN application.
Understand how port-of-entry admission works for Canadian applicants
Canadian citizens can obtain TN status directly at a U.S. port of entry without a prior visa stamp. Bring your employment offer letter, degree transcripts, and a support letter from your employer. CBP officers adjudicate TN petitions on the spot, so your documentation needs to be complete and organized.
IT Operations Analyst TN Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Does an IT Operations Analyst role qualify for TN visa sponsorship?
Yes, if the role is classified under Computer Systems Analyst, which is one of the USMCA's listed TN professional categories. The key test is whether the position requires theoretical and practical application of specialized computer systems knowledge. Job titles matter less than the actual duties and the degree requirement the employer sets for the role.
How does the TN visa compare to H-1B for IT Operations Analyst positions?
The TN visa has no annual lottery and no numerical cap for Canadian citizens, which means you can start the process any time of year with a qualifying job offer. H-1B requires entering a random lottery that selects fewer than half of registrants in a typical year. For Mexican nationals, TN has a 5,500 annual allocation, but processing is predictable and far faster than H-1B timelines.
Where can I find IT Operations Analyst jobs that specifically offer TN visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built for this search. It filters IT Operations Analyst roles by confirmed TN sponsorship capacity, so you're not spending time on applications where the employer hasn't considered visa sponsorship. Generic job boards rarely surface sponsorship status clearly, which makes the filtering step critical for TN applicants.
What documents does my employer need to sponsor a TN visa for this role?
Your employer needs to provide a signed support letter on company letterhead that describes your specific duties, confirms the role meets the Computer Systems Analyst category, states your salary, and lists your start date. You'll also need your educational credentials demonstrating the required bachelor's degree or higher. For Canadian citizens, you present this package directly to CBP at the port of entry during your port-of-entry inspection.
Can I switch employers or change jobs while on a TN visa as an IT Operations Analyst?
Yes, but you must obtain a new TN authorization before starting with the new employer. There's no portability provision the way H-1B offers under certain conditions. Canadian citizens can go to a port of entry with the new employer's support letter and documentation. Mexican nationals must apply for a new TN visa at a U.S. consulate before the job change takes effect.
