What you will do

Lead discovery and scoping from pre-sales through post-sales, including problem framing, constraints, trade-offs, and a delivery plan.
Design and ship production systems around models, owning integrations, data flows, reliability, and on-call readiness.
Build in sensitive data environments where auditability, validation, and access controls drive architecture decisions.
Define launch criteria for regulated contexts, outcome metrics, and drive adoption until you prove production impact.
Run evaluation loops that measure model and system quality in life science workflows to drive model and product improvements.
Distill production learnings into hardened primitives, reference architectures, and templated workflows that scale across regulated life sciences environments.

Requirements

5+ years of engineering or technical deployment experience with customer-facing ownership in biotech, pharma, clinical research, or scientific software.
Advanced degree or equivalent applied experience in Biomedical Engineering, Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, or a related field.
Experience owning customer GenAI deployments end-to-end from scoping through production adoption and improved them through evals, error analysis, and iteration.
Experience delivering AI systems in trial design, regulatory writing, or scientific environments where validation, auditability, and compliance constraints shaped the system.
Communicate clearly across scientific, model research, technical, and executive audiences, translating technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders with credibility.
Apply systems thinking with high execution standards, consistently turning failures or escalations in regulated environments into new operating standards.
