Technical Leadership & Architecture

• Lead architecture, design, development, testing, and deployment of enterprise software solutions (applications, data, integration, AI agents, AI models)

• Participate in strategy and roadmap discussions, architecture definition, and technology evaluations

• Mentor engineers through design reviews, code reviews, and technical guidance

• Quickly evaluate and adopt new tools, technologies, and platforms to build prototypes and proofs-of-concept

• Drive adoption of AI solutions and collaborate with engineering teams, product leaders, and domain experts to deliver results

• Software Engineering

  • Design, develop, and maintain scalable, production-grade enterprise applications using modern languages and frameworks (Python, Java, C#, JavaScript)

  • Define and enforce coding standards, best practices, and design patterns across the team

  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, and cloud-deployed services (AWS, Azure)

  • Integrate enterprise systems via APIs, event-driven architectures, and messaging platforms

  • Identify and resolve performance bottlenecks, technical debt, and system reliability issues

  • Data & Analytics

    • Work with large, complex datasets and ensure data quality and integrity

    • Analyze data to generate insights that inform both model development and broader solution strategy

    • Collaborate with stakeholders to translate business problems into data-driven solutions

    • AI / Machine Learning Development

      • Design, develop, and train machine learning and deep learning models for healthcare and insurance use cases

      • Perform data modeling and feature engineering to support model development

      • Develop custom model metrics and approaches tailored to specific business problems

      • Ensure models are scalable, reliable, and integrated into production systems

      • Agentic AI Development

        • Design and develop LLM-powered workflows and agentic systems that help users complete complex tasks, retrieve information, reason over enterprise data, or interact with internal systems.

        • Integrate LLMs with tools, APIs, databases, documents, and enterprise platforms using patterns such as function calling, MCP, RAG, and structured tool use.

        • Architect orchestration patterns for planning, task decomposition, memory, context management, and human-in-the-loop review where appropriate.

        • Develop orchestration layers to manage agent planning, memory, task decomposition, and execution loops

        • Evaluate agentic systems for correctness, reliability, safety, observability, auditability, and harden them for production readiness.

        • Stay current with emerging AI frameworks and platforms, selecting tools pragmatically based on client needs.

Experience

  • AI Engineering Skills (Two or More)

    • Agentic AI: building and integrating autonomous AI agents using LLM APIs and orchestration frameworks (e.g., Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT, LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen, MCP)

    • Machine Learning & Deep Learning: developing and training models using standard ML/DL frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch, scikit-learn)

    • Data Engineering & Feature Engineering: building data pipelines, performing feature engineering, and ensuring data quality across large, complex datasets

    • Context Engineering: Agentic SQL retrieval, MCP integration, agentic tool use, as well as vector databases & RAG techniques implementing retrieval-augmented generation patterns using vector stores (e.g., Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector, ChromaDB), .

    • LLM Prompt Engineering & Fine-Tuning: designing and evaluating effective prompts, system instructions, and fine-tuning strategies for production LLM applications

    • AI Evaluation & Production Readiness: defining evaluation methods, testing model behavior, monitoring performance, and addressing reliability, safety, explainability, and auditability concerns

    • What We're Looking For

      • You move fluidly between writing code and leading a room — equally comfortable in a design review as you are in a pull request

      • You have strong opinions about architecture and aren't afraid to share them, but you know when to listen and adapt

      • You take ownership seriously — on small teams, your decisions have real impact and you're energized by that, not intimidated

      • You're genuinely curious about AI, not just checking a box — you've experimented with agentic systems, LLMs, or ML tools on your own terms

      • You communicate clearly with both engineers and non-technical stakeholders, and can translate complexity without dumbing it down
