Design and lead applied AI initiatives across the claim lifecycle (e.g., Claim intake, automation, document understanding, adjuster assist, fraud detection, coverage reasoning).
Prototype and build GenAI-powered tools from RAG pipelines and domain-tuned LLMs to intelligent workflow agents that operate on structured and unstructured claims data.
Experiment rigorously: define hypotheses, run evaluations, measure impact, and refine models in production.
Collaborate cross-functionally with product, data, and claims operations to translate pain points into scalable AI solutions.
Guide a small team of engineers and scientists by influence, providing technical direction and mentorship on AI architecture, experimentation, and deployment.
Set standards for AI reliability, interpretability, and governance tailored to claims and regulatory constraints.
Stay on the frontier of AI capabilities continuously evaluating new tools, models, and frameworks to apply responsibly in claims contexts.

5+ years of experience in applied machine learning or AI product engineering, including 2+ years working with Generative AI or LLMs.
Deep hands-on expertise in Python, LangChain, LlamaIndex, Hugging Face, or OpenAI/Anthropic APIs.
Proven ability to design, prototype, and ship AI solutions in real-world domains (e.g., insurance, healthcare, finance, or legal).
Strong understanding of retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), prompt engineering, text-to-structure extraction, and vector database design.
Ability to lead through influence, driving vision, technical direction, and experimentation within a small, cross-functional team.
A track record of turning research ideas into working products with measurable outcomes.
Experience in building machine learning models.
Experience in applying AI to business or engineering needs.
