Position:
GCP AI Engineer - Cambridge, MA

Position Summary:
Lead the design, development, and deployment of AI solutions on Google Cloud that elevate patient care and streamline healthcare operations. This role is for engineers who ship end-to-end. You will own problems from definition through production-using AI as a core part of your workflow, not an occasional tool. Your work spans data engineering, model building, and AI Ops, delivering intelligent, production-ready healthcare applications and agents used by clinicians, care teams, and patients.

Job Description:

Key Responsibilities


End to End Ownership

• Own features from problem framing through production deployment and iteration.

• Work with clinical, product, and engineering partners to define the right problem before building the solution.

• Stay accountable for outcomes after launch, including performance, reliability, and usability in real-world healthcare settings.

HandsOn Agentic & Generative AI Development

• Build, troubleshoot, and optimize agentic AI systems using Python, LangChain, LangGraph, and Gemini APIs on Google Cloud.

• Embed AI agents directly into clinical workflows and user-facing applications, not just prototypes.

• Design and deploy RAG-based and conversational AI systems that are accurate, grounded, and trustworthy.

AI Ops / ML Ops Implementation

• Design and automate end to end ML pipelines covering training, validation, deployment, monitoring, and updates.

• Use Vertex AI, Kubeflow, Cloud Build, Terraform, and related tooling to ensure models are reproducible, observable, and reliable.

• Monitor production systems, detect drift, and iterate-treating "merge" as the beginning, not the end.

Healthcare Data Engineering

• Construct secure, compliant data pipelines integrating EHR, FHIR, and HL7 data formats.

• Support interoperability with EMR systems such as EPIC.

• Implement validation and quality checks appropriate for regulated healthcare environments.

Develop & Deploy AI/ML Models

• Build, test, and deploy models supporting:

• Clinical decision support

• Patient and clinician interaction

• Workflow automation

• Leverage Vertex AI, BigQuery, Dataflow, and Looker for scalable analytics and deployment.

Operational Reliability

• Use GCP Cloud Operations (Stackdriver) for monitoring, alerting, and troubleshooting.

• Rapidly diagnose and resolve production issues in distributed AI systems.

• Continuously optimize for performance, cost, and reliability.

Security & Compliance

• Apply best practices for IAM, VPC configuration, encryption, and secure access.

• Ensure compliance with HIPAA and healthcare data privacy standards.

Collaboration & Support

• Collaborate closely with clinical, product, and IT teams to translate complex needs into working AI solutions.

• Provide documentation, knowledge sharing, and hands on support for deployed systems.

Continuous Learning & Prototyping

• Stay current with advances in GCP, agentic AI, and generative AI.

• Prototype, test, and validate new AI workflows, moving successful ideas into production.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, AI, Health Informatics, or related field.

• 4+ years of experience building or supporting production software or AI/ML systems, including meaningful exposure to Google Cloud.

• Experience with Python and modern AI/ML frameworks.

• Familiarity with containerized deployments (Docker, Kubernetes) and cloud-native systems.

• Experience contributing to or supporting ML pipelines, model monitoring, or AI-enabled services.

• Interest in or exposure to healthcare data or regulated environments.

Preferred / Nice to Have

• Experience with Vertex AI, Kubeflow, or GCP-based ML workflows.

• Exposure to FHIR, HL7, or EMR systems (including EPIC).

• Experience building agentic AI, RAG systems, or conversational AI.

• Background in MLOps, model monitoring, or AI operations.

• Google Cloud certifications (AI Engineer, DevOps, Cloud Architect).

Work Environment

• Based in Cambridge, MA

• Hybrid schedule with 3 days onsite per week.

• Collaborative, growth oriented team that values ownership, clarity, and real world impact.
