We are seeking a Senior AI/ML Engineer with strong hands-on experience designing, building, evaluating, and deploying production-grade AI/ML and Generative AI solutions. This role will focus on healthcare and enterprise AI applications, including LLM-powered assistants, document intelligence, machine learning pipelines, full-stack application development, and cloud-native deployment.
Scope of Work:
The candidate will be responsible for designing and developing scalable AI solutions that combine large language models, structured and unstructured data, cloud services, machine learning components, APIs, and user-facing applications. Responsibilities include developing document ingestion and processing workflows, semantic search, embeddings, prompt engineering, evaluation frameworks, AI safety guardrails, APIs, production monitoring, and end-to-end AI-enabled applications.
The candidate will also be responsible for full-stack development, including building responsive user interfaces, backend services, RESTful APIs, data integrations, authentication and authorization, and integrations with AI/ML models and cloud-based services.
The role will include designing, building, and maintaining CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps to automate application build, testing, validation, security checks, and deployment across development, testing, staging, and production environments. Responsibilities may include Azure DevOps Pipelines, Git-based source control, branching strategies, automated unit and integration testing, environment configuration, release management, deployment automation, and troubleshooting deployment issues.
The candidate will be expected to follow strong software engineering and MLOps practices across the development lifecycle, including modular architecture, reusable components, version control, automated testing, code reviews, logging, observability, error handling, performance optimization, security, maintainability, and production support.
The role will also require close collaboration with product owners, clinical or business stakeholders, architects, DevOps engineers, security teams, and other technical teams to gather and translate requirements, communicate technical decisions and tradeoffs, and deliver reliable, secure, measurable, and maintainable AI solutions.
