Description

We're building a world of health around every individual , shaping a more connected, convenient and compassionate health experience.

The Senior Software Engineer will design, build, and ship production-grade AI-powered products and the software and data foundations behind them. You will work with engineering, analysts, data scientists, and product teams in a fast-paced, agile environment, using AI/ML and GenAI to reimagine how healthcare is delivered.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and deploy agentic AI systems and LLM-powered applications, including multi-step workflows, tool use, and orchestration with frameworks such as LangChain and LangGraph
  • Develop retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) solutions end-to-end, including ingestion, chunking, embedding generation, vector indexing, retrieval tuning, and grounding of model responses
  • Design, build, and maintain the data pipelines, data models, feature stores, and vector stores that feed analytics, ML, and GenAI workloads
  • Build full-stack applications that expose AI capabilities to users, including responsive front-end interfaces (e.g., chat and copilot experiences), backend services, and RESTful/GraphQL APIs
  • Integrate applications with LLM APIs, relational databases, data platforms, and vector databases, and optimize data access patterns, latency, and token/inference cost
  • Implement MLOps/LLMOps practices, including model and prompt versioning, evaluation pipelines, monitoring for quality, drift, and hallucination, and automated release workflows
  • Implement CI/CD pipelines, automated testing (including AI evaluation and regression testing), infrastructure as code, and observability across applications, data pipelines, and AI services
  • Troubleshoot and resolve production issues across the stack, from data quality and model behavior to API performance and UI experience
  • Apply AI-assisted development tools to improve engineering productivity, code quality, and delivery speed, and help establish team standards for their use
  • Participate in design and code reviews, mentor junior engineers, and champion engineering and AI best practices
  • Partner with product owners, designers, analysts, and data scientists to translate business needs into AI-enabled technical solutions
  • Ensure solutions meet security, privacy, and compliance standards (e.g., HIPAA), and apply responsible AI practices including guardrails, PHI/PII protection, auditability, and human-in-the-loop controls

Required Qualifications

  • 6+ years of professional software engineering experience, with strong experience building full-stack applications and a track record of delivering AI/ML-enabled solutions to production
  • Proficiency in at least one modern backend language (e.g., Python, Java, Node.js/TypeScript) and one modern front-end framework (e.g., React, Angular, Vue)
  • Hands-on experience building and deploying Agentic AI solutions in complex cloud infrastructure environments, including orchestration frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LangGraph) and integration with LLM APIs
  • Experience building data pipelines to support ML/AI workloads, including feature engineering, embedding generation, and integration with vector databases (e.g., Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector) for RAG use cases
  • Experience designing and building RESTful APIs and microservices, including authentication/authorization, API security, and service-to-service integration, with experience serving AI/LLM capabilities through APIs
  • 6+ years of experience working with SQL and relational database management systems, including schema design and query optimization
  • 3+ years of experience with cloud platforms and data engineering platforms such as AWS, GCP, Azure, Databricks, or Snowflake
  • Familiarity with MLOps/LLMOps practices, model versioning, monitoring, and pipeline support for production ML/AI systems (e.g., Vertex AI, SageMaker, Azure ML)
  • Experience with CI/CD, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), Git-based workflows, and automated testing practices
  • Hands-on experience troubleshooting data, application, and AI system issues
  • Hands-on experience with performance improvement techniques across data, backend, front-end, and AI inference layers
  • Willingness to identify and implement process improvements and best practices, and the ability to take ownership in a fast-paced, collaborative, team-based environment
  • Excellent oral and written communication skills, including the ability to translate complex technical and AI concepts for non-technical stakeholders

Benefits

  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • Paid time off
  • Retirement savings options
  • Wellness programs
  • Other resources, based on eligibility

Skills
