AI Engineer (LLMs for Healthcare)

Apply Now
About the role We are seeking a talented and motivated mid to senior level AI Engineer with expertise in developing and fine-tuning large language models (LLMs), healthcare workflows, and AI/ML engineering best practices. The ideal candidate will bring a deep understanding of healthcare-specific challenges and modern AI techniques to drive innovation in Value-Based Care solutions. Level and salary will commensurate with experience. Key Responsibilities AI/ML Engineering • Fine-tune and optimize large language models (LLMs) to address specific healthcare applications. • Develop and apply advanced prompt engineering techniques to enhance model outputs for clinical scenarios. • Implement Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems to improve knowledge retrieval from large datasets. • Work with knowledge graphs to organize and integrate healthcare-specific data for enhanced decision-making. • Evaluate black-box models using precision, recall, and other performance metrics, ensuring robustness and reliability. Healthcare Expertise • Collaborate with healthcare professionals to understand workflows and identify opportunities for AI-driven enhancements. • Design and build AI models that align with healthcare standards and regulations (e.g., HIPAA compliance). • Integrate domain-specific knowledge of healthcare data, including FHIR and interoperability standards, into AI solutions. MLOps & Deployment • Develop and maintain scalable, production-ready AI pipelines using MLOps tools. • Deploy and monitor AI models in production environments to ensure performance and compliance. • Optimize infrastructure for efficient training, testing, and deployment of models. Innovation and Optimization • Stay at the forefront of advancements in AI, especially in healthcare applications. • Identify and resolve performance bottlenecks in AI workflows. • Explore emerging trends and technologies in LLMs and healthcare to continually improve solutions. Collaboration and Impact • Partner with cross-functional teams, including data engineers and clinicians, to ensure seamless integration of AI into healthcare workflows. • Communicate technical results and insights effectively to non-technical stakeholders. Required Qualifications • Proven experience in LLM fine-tuning and advanced prompt engineering. • Strong background in Python and modern ML frameworks (e.g., Huggingface, pyTorch). • Familiarity with healthcare workflows and regulatory requirements (e.g., HIPAA, FHIR standards). • Hands-on experience with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) techniques. • Expertise in evaluating AI models using performance metrics like precision, and recall. Preferred Skills • Experience with MLOps frameworks such as MLflow, Langfuse, or similar tools. • Understanding of healthcare data standards, including HL7 and HEDIS metrics. • Strong problem-solving skills in integrating AI with complex healthcare datasets. • Familiarity with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, GCP, or Azure) and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes). When applying In addition to your resume, also include: • A highly personalized, bold, and hilarious “Keebler Health–style” introduction that grabs attention - outgoing, fun, and uniquely you (not uniquely ChatGPT). Think: confident, high-energy, slightly irreverent (but still professional), with a smart nod to healthcare, value-based care, and the fact that we’re building something real. What We Offer • Competitive salary and benefits package. • Opportunity to work in a fast-paced, innovative environment. • Professional growth and development opportunities. • Collaborative and supportive team culture. • Chance to make a meaningful impact on the healthcare industry.
