  • Operationalize machine learning models using Vertex AI, build automated pipelines, and integrate models into clinical workflows (e.g., within CWOW or OneView)
  • Troubleshoot and resolve critical production issues, performing root cause analysis for complex incidents
  • Implement and manage DevOps practices using GitLab CI/CD, Docker, and Terraform
  • Ensure all solutions are aligned with DaVita's reference architecture and business objectives
  • Communicate technical concepts and trade-offs effectively to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Demonstrate adaptability and a "can-do" attitude to unblock the team in a fast-paced, shifting environment
WHAT YOU BRING

  • Deep expertise in Google Cloud Platform (Google Cloud Platform) services, including Vertex AI, BigQuery, Cloud Composer (Airflow), Cloud Run, GKE (Kubernetes), and Cloud Storage
  • Advanced proficiency in Python (for AI/Data) and SQL
  • Experience with Vertex AI, LLM orchestration (e.g., LangChain), and MLOps practices (model monitoring, feature stores, automated retraining)
  • Hands-on experience with GitLab CI/CD, Docker, and Terraform
  • 7+ years of progressively responsible experience in software engineering or related areas, with at least 2+ years in a Technical Lead or Principal Engineer capacity
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent practical experience)
  • Proven ability to oversee multiple concurrent technical projects and deliver high-impact AI/Data Intelligence initiatives
  • Strong architectural and technical design skills for scalable, reliable, and secure AI applications
  • Ability to mentor and guide Senior Developers, Data Scientists, and Engineers
  • Excellent communication skills to explain technical trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders and provide clear direction to developers
  • Demonstrated resilience and adaptability in fast-paced, shifting environments
  • Proven ability to context-switch effectively between high-level strategy and hands-on engineering tasks
