Become a part of our caring community Every large organization is making critical decisions today about how it will leverage AI over the next decade. Few have leaders who can both define that vision and demonstrate its viability through hands-on engineering. This role requires both. We build the platform that transforms millions of clinical documents into trusted, actionable data. Our systems use large language models (LLMs) to read medical records, extract structured facts, answer complex questions with citations to source documents, and route difficult cases to human experts. These capabilities support decisions that impact real healthcare outcomes for members. As a Principal AI Applied Engineer, you will define the technical strategy, architectural standards, and long-term vision for AI-enabled products across the organization. You will influence enterprise-wide decisions regarding AI platforms, model strategies, engineering standards, and technology investments while remaining deeply hands-on in prototyping, experimentation, architecture, and software development. This is the highest-level individual contributor role within the AI Applied Engineering organization. Success requires exceptional technical depth, organizational influence, strategic thinking, and the ability to translate emerging AI capabilities into scalable, reliable, and responsible production systems. Why Join Us Shape the long-term AI architecture and engineering direction for a large enterprise healthcare organization. Influence how AI-enabled products are designed, built, evaluated, deployed, and governed across multiple teams. Drive strategic decisions involving models, vendors, platforms, infrastructure, and shared capabilities. Prototype and validate emerging technologies before the organization invests at scale.</
