As a Senior Engineer, you will partner closely with AI Scientists, Data Engineers, Software Engineers, Architects, and Product teams to operationalize AI/ML and Generative AI solutions at enterprise scale. You will play a key role in shaping the organization's AI platform strategy, driving best practices, and delivering scalable, secure, and reliable AI systems in production healthcare environments.

Key Responsibilities

MLOps Engineering Responsibilities
  • Design, build, and maintain scalable ML infrastructure and pipelines supporting model training, deployment, monitoring, governance, and lifecycle management.
  • Develop and optimize CI/CD pipelines for machine learning and AI workloads across development, staging, and production environments.
  • Build reusable ML platform capabilities including feature stores, model registries, experimentation frameworks, artifact management, and deployment automation.
  • Implement scalable orchestration and workflow solutions for batch and real-time ML inference workloads.
  • Create robust monitoring systems to measure model performance, detect model drift, monitor data quality, and ensure production reliability.
  • Develop automation tools and self-service capabilities to improve the efficiency, scalability, and reliability of MLOps processes.
  • Collaborate with Data Scientists and Software Engineers to streamline the ML lifecycle from experimentation through enterprise production deployment.
  • Apply software engineering best practices to AI/ML systems including testing, observability, resiliency, security, versioning, and infrastructure-as-code.
  • Identify gaps and improvement opportunities within the organization's ML platform ecosystem and architect scalable solutions to address them.
  • Support enterprise AI governance, compliance, auditability, and model risk management requirements.
  • Ensure platform scalability, reliability, security, and operational excellence across AI/ML systems.
Generative AI Engineering Responsibilities
  • Lead the architecture, design, and deployment of enterprise Generative AI solutions leveraging LLMs, foundation models, and agentic AI systems.
  • Design and implement Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines using vector databases, embeddings, semantic search, reranking, and retrieval optimization strategies.
  • Build scalable LLM orchestration frameworks using technologies such as LangChain, LlamaIndex, Semantic Kernel, or equivalent frameworks.
  • Develop advanced prompt engineering strategies, prompt chaining, context management, and agent workflows to improve LLM accuracy and reliability.
  • Evaluate and implement fine-tuning, parameter-efficient tuning, and prompt-based optimization approaches for domain-specific use cases.
  • Build AI evaluation and benchmarking frameworks to measure hallucination rates, response quality, grounding accuracy, toxicity, bias, latency, and business performance metrics.
  • Implement AI safety guardrails, governance controls, content filtering, and responsible AI practices for enterprise healthcare environments.
  • Design scalable GenAI APIs and microservices supporting high-throughput enterprise AI applications.
  • Optimize GenAI systems for cost, latency, throughput, and inference performance across cloud and hybrid environments.
  • Integrate enterprise data sources, healthcare systems, and knowledge repositories into secure GenAI workflows.
  • Research and evaluate emerging GenAI technologies, open-source frameworks, and foundation models to drive innovation and continuous improvement.
  • Develop architecture diagrams, technical roadmaps, implementation strategies, and executive-level documentation for enterprise AI initiatives.
  • Collaborate with cybersecurity, compliance, and infrastructure teams to ensure secure and compliant deployment of GenAI solutions involving PHI and sensitive healthcare data.
  • Contribute to the development of AI platform standards, reusable GenAI accelerators, templates, and engineering best practices.
Required Qualifications
  • 5+ years of experience building and deploying production software, ML systems, or AI platforms.
  • 1+ years of hands-on experience building production Generative AI or LLM-based applications.
  • Strong programming skills in Python and experience with software engineering best practices.

  • Hands-on experience implementing RAG architectures, vector search, embeddings, prompt engineering, and LLM orchestration frameworks.
  • Experience with vector databases such as Pinecone, Weaviate, Chroma, FAISS, Milvus, or equivalent technologies.
  • Experience deploying AI/ML systems in cloud environments including AWS, Azure, or GCP.
  • Strong understanding of APIs, distributed systems, microservices, and scalable backend architectures.
  • Experience with Kubernetes, containerization, orchestration, and cloud-native infrastructure.
  • Experience implementing CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure automation, and MLOps best practices.
  • Experience building monitoring, observability, and alerting solutions for ML and AI systems.
  • Strong understanding of AI/ML lifecycle management, governance, model versioning, and production operations.
  • Experience designing secure, scalable, production-ready AI platforms and services.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills with the ability to work across technical and business teams.
Preferred Qualifications
