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.
