You are expected to assess system interactions, develop new automated workflows, and simplify with long term solutions.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Workflow Transformation: Partner with Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to audit and map complex diagnostic workflows, identifying bottlenecks and designing "future state" processes that transition analog tasks into digitized, automated systems.
• AI Solution Architecture: Design and deploy end-to-end technical solutions utilizing LLMs, scripting (Python/Bash), and integration tools to automate manual data entry and information retrieval.
• Quality & Risk Mitigation: Develop and manage rigorous evaluation frameworks for AI outputs, ensuring quality checks are in place to mitigate hallucinations and maintain strict adherence to data privacy and security compliance.
• Prompt & API Engineering: Design, test, and refine complex prompt structures and manage the integration of AI APIs into existing business systems to enhance organizational productivity.
• Performance Tracking: Establish baseline productivity metrics and track KPIs to measure the ROI and time saved through newly implemented automated processes.
• Strategic Change Management: Lead the rollout of new AI tools across the organization, providing technical communication that translates complex concepts into actionable insights for non-technical stakeholders to ensure high adoption rates.

KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, & ABILITIES

• LLM & Generative AI Expertise: Advanced proficiency in state-of-the-art models, including a deep understanding of token limits, specific model constraints, and appropriate use cases for varying architectures.
• Systems Architecture & Digitization: Proven ability to architect solutions that bridge siloed data environments and create accessible, digitized information flows.
• Communication: Proven skill in bridging the communication gap between specialized Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) and technical teams, ensuring that AI solutions address the specific pain points of a product development environment.
• Technical Scripting & Automation: Proficiency in Python or Bash and hands-on experience with automation platforms.
• Analytical Problem Solving: Strong capability to take ambiguous, manual problems and engineer streamlined, scalable, and autonomous solutions.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Exceptional ability to partner with scientists and engineering teams, translating technical requirements into operational excellence.
• Strategic Decision Making: Critical thinking skills to determine the most efficient tool for a task, knowing when to deploy a complex AI model versus a simple, cost-effective script.
