Job Summary:
  • The AI Engineer is responsible for building, testing, and deploying AI-powered solutions that address real-world healthcare challenges within our PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) program.
  • The AI Engineer will leverage enterprise AI models to not build or fine-tune them to create intelligent applications such as participant context engines, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines, and agentic workflows.
  • The AI Engineer will stay current with the rapidly evolving AI landscape and translate emerging capabilities into production-ready solutions for our business.
  • The AI Engineer collaborates effectively with colleagues and stakeholders to promote client values, team culture, and mission.
Job Responsibilities:
Enterprise AI Application Development:
  • Design, build, and deploy AI-powered applications using enterprise LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini).
  • Translate PACE business requirements such as building rich participant context into production-ready AI solutions.
RAG Pipeline Engineering:
  • Architect and implement retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems that ground AI responses in client's proprietary data, ensuring accuracy, relevance, and compliance with healthcare data standards.
Hands-On Prototyping & Delivery:
  • Own the full development lifecycle for new AI use cases from ideation and rapid POC development through validation, iteration, and production deployment.
Agentic Framework Development:
  • Research and build agentic AI workflows (using frameworks such as LangGraph, LangChain, or Copilot Studio) that evolve our systems toward autonomous, goal-oriented agents capable of handling complex multi-step healthcare processes.
Secure Cloud Deployment:
  • Architect and deploy AI services within private cloud environments (primarily Azure; AWS as needed), utilizing Docker containers, private endpoints, managed identities, and secure VNET configurations.
Multi-Model Orchestration:
  • Evaluate and integrate across the frontier model landscape, selecting the right model for each use case based on performance, cost, latency, and compliance requirements.
Operational Excellence:
  • Implement AIOps and MLOps best practices monitoring, versioning, automated testing, and CI/CD pipelines to ensure all AI applications are reliable, scalable, and maintainable.
Technology Scouting:
  • Continuously evaluate emerging AI tools, techniques, and model releases.
  • Proactively recommend new approaches that can improve participant outcomes,
  • operational efficiency, or developer productivity.
  • Must be willing and have the ability to work a varied schedule that may include evening nights, weekends and overtime.
  • Complete all required documentation in a timely and accurate manner.

  • Experience and competency working with people from diverse backgrounds and cultures.
  • RAG & Retrieval Systems:
    • Demonstrated experience designing and deploying retrieval augmented generation pipelines, including vector databases, embedding strategies, chunking optimization, and retrieval evaluation.
  • Enterprise LLM Integration:
    • Proven ability to build applications on top of commercial LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) including prompt engineering, structured output handling, function/tool calling, and context window management.
  • Python:
    • Advanced proficiency in Python for AI application development, API integration, and data pipeline construction.
  • Cloud & Containerization:
    • Hands-on experience with Azure AI services (AI Foundry, Managed Identities, Key Vault, private networking) and Docker-based deployments in secure cloud environments.
  • DevOps & CI/CD:
    • Proficiency with Azure DevOps (or equivalent) for building CI/CD pipelines that automate testing and deployment of AI applications.
  • Agentic AI Patterns:
    • Solid understanding of agentic architectures and frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, Semantic Kernel, or Copilot Studio.
