Senior AI Engineer
2 weeks ago
If you are an elite ML Engineer or Data Scientist who wants to build truly transformative, agentic AI systems from the ground up and fundamentally change a vital industry, we want to talk to you.
Role Summary:
As a founding member of our new AI team, you will be at the heart of our mission. You will architect and build the AI core of our next-generation products. This isn't about fine-tuning existing models; it's about designing and deploying complex, multi-step agentic workflows that will define the future of our company. You will leverage cutting-edge LLMs and NLP to solve some of the most challenging problems in healthcare data, directly impacting the efficiency and well-being of medical specialists.
What You'll Be Building (The Core Challenge):
● Design & Build AI Agents:
Architect and implement agentic AI systems that can reason, plan, and execute complex tasks like autonomous medical billing, intelligent patient scheduling, and automated clinical note analysis and summaries.
● Master a Multi-LLM Strategy:
Pioneer our NLP strategy by selecting, integrating, and fine-tuning the best models for each task. You'll leverage the unique strengths of different foundation models like OpenAI's GPT-4, the large context handling of Anthropic's Claude, or the multi-modal capabilities of Google's Gemini to build custom solutions.
● End-to-End Ownership:
Lead the entire ML lifecycle—from initial R&D and data strategy to building robust, scalable deployment pipelines (MLOps) on our cloud infrastructure.
● Shape the AI Vision:
Collaborate directly with the founders, product managers, and clinical experts to define the AI roadmap and contribute to the core architecture of software's future.
● Champion AI Excellence:
Stay at the absolute forefront of AI (LLMs, Agentic Frameworks, RAG systems) and drive the adoption of new technologies that give us a competitive edge, while ensuring the highest standards of ethics, privacy, and security.
Required Skills & Experience (The Essentials):
● A portfolio of ML projects you have successfully built and deployed, demonstrating significant impact.
● Practical experience with NLP and/or Large Language Models (LLMs), including fine-tuning, RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation), and embedding strategies.
● Proven ability to write production-quality code
● A strong foundation in machine learning principles and best practices.
● Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills; you know how to break down ambiguous, complex problems into actionable steps.
Preferred Qualifications (What Makes You Stand Out):
● Experience building with agentic AI frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LlamaIndex) or developing similar multi-step reasoning systems.
● Hands-on experience with major LLM APIs and ecosystems (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, Cohere) and a deep understanding of their unique strengths, weaknesses, and prompt engineering nuances.
● Experience with MLOps practices and tools for CI/CD, model monitoring, and automated retraining.
● Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) for ML model deployment.
● Familiarity with the healthcare domain, especially medical coding systems (ICD-10, CPT), is not required but would be a plus
Your Next Great Challenge:
● Build from Zero: This isn't a maintenance role. You'll be building our most ambitious AI systems from the ground up.
● Unprecedented Impact: The code you write will directly free up thousands of hours for doctors, allowing them to provide better care. You will see the impact of your work in the real world, every day.
● Autonomy and Ownership: As part of a small, elite team, you won't be a cog in a machine. You will have full ownership of your projects, from idea to deployment, with a direct line to company leadership.
● Solve Unsolved Problems: We are working on challenges at the frontier of AI application in healthcare. You will be pushed technically and creatively every single day.
Job Type: Full-time
