About the role

  • It is a product and systems role for someone who knows how to turn modern foundation models into dependable production infrastructure.
  • You should be excited by messy real-world data, ambiguous edge cases, and high-leverage workflow automation.
  • You will work across LLMs, OCR pipelines, voice AI, evaluation systems, and backend production infrastructure to help automate the DME process end to end.

Responsibilities

  • You will own systems that turn noisy, unstructured inputs such as faxes, phone transcripts, and operational data into reliable structured facts, decisions, and downstream actions.
  • Design LLM-powered extraction, classification, validation, and routing systems for operational and clinical workflows.
  • Develop voice AI workflows for patient and provider outreach, transcript understanding, post-call extraction, and follow-up automation.
  • Partner with product and engineering to identify the highest-leverage automation opportunities and translate them into shipped systems.
  • Improve document intelligence systems across OCR, schema extraction, confidence scoring, error handling, and low-quality input recovery.
  • Create evaluation harnesses, benchmarks, and regression tests for extraction quality, hallucination prevention, workflow accuracy, and model changes.
  • Optimize cost, latency, and reliability across model providers and infrastructure layers.
  • Strong experience building production AI systems around LLMs, OCR, and unstructured data workflows.

Requirements

  • Experience with document intelligence systems such as OCR pipelines, document extraction, classification, post-processing, and confidence-based review flows.

Nice to have

  • Experience with human-in-the-loop workflow design and review tooling.
  • Familiarity with telephony vendors, speech systems, or conversational agent infrastructure.
  • Experience comparing and routing across model providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Bedrock, or equivalent.
  • Experience designing internal tools or operational systems used directly by workflow teams.

Skills

  • Proven track record shipping applied AI products, not just prototyping models offline.
  • Experience with voice or conversational AI, or adjacent systems involving transcripts, call automation, and conversational extraction.
  • Strong proficiency in Python and comfort working in production codebases with APIs, queues, and backend services.
  • Experience deploying and operating AI systems in AWS or similar cloud environments, including serverless or event-driven architectures.
  • Strong instincts around evaluation, benchmarking, monitoring, and quality assurance for real-world AI systems.

Benefits

  • Build and improve multimodal AI pipelines that process healthcare documents, OCR output, transcripts, and workflow context into structured facts and decisions.
