I max 401k @ $18.5k plus after tax additional $10k (immediate conversion to Roth).
Then I do backdoor Roths $11k (incl spouse).
That’s what I do that’s automated for retirement.
Goal is to have it all done by April. Then rest of year, I fund my kids’ 529s at least $1k per month.

When bonuses get paid, I put more into regular brokerage account. I was always told if you start young and put away approx 15% of gross income (including co. match), you will have similar lifestyle in retirement as you do now.

When I started in this business in 2001, I could barely max Roths $3k each ($6k total) so do whatever you can.
