TL;DR · Senior AI Machine Learning Engineer

The Senior AI Machine Learning Engineer joins the Employee Benefits Applied AI and Analytics team to build, deploy, and sustain enterprise-scale predictive and applied AI solutions. This role involves managing a predictive model portfolio while expanding into generative AI and agentic AI capabilities across pricing, underwriting, and sales workflows. The engineer will develop data pipelines for training and inference, implement RAG patterns, and manage production services in AWS and GCP environments using CI/CD and orchestration tools like Airflow or Vertex AI Pipelines. Key responsibilities include translating architecture designs into production-ready code, performing code reviews, and mentoring junior engineers. Technical requirements include proficiency in Python, SQL, Git, and automated testing. The role addresses the technical challenge of automating and enhancing the policy lifecycle for employee benefits through robust model monitoring, drift detection, and governed deployment practices.

What you'll do

  • Manage and modernize the predictive model portfolio for pricing, underwriting, and sales workflows.
  • Build and maintain production-ready AI/ML components and data pipelines in AWS and GCP environments.
  • Translate architectural designs into tested, reliable code and automated workflows with minimal supervision.
  • Develop generative AI and agentic AI solutions including RAG patterns, prompt orchestration, and guardrails.
  • Operate batch and near-real-time pipelines for model training, feature generation, and inference.
  • Ensure implementation quality through code reviews, unit testing, documentation, and production readiness checks.
  • Mentor junior engineers by breaking down technical tasks and reviewing their code and pipeline designs.
  • Maintain governance artifacts including lineage, monitoring metrics, and operational control documentation.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in a related field or 6+ years of equivalent experience in software, data, ML/DevOps, or applied AI engineering.
  • Master's degree in computer science, engineering, information technology, MIS, data science, or a related discipline (preferred).
  • Strong hands-on expertise in Python, SQL, SDLC practices, Git-based development, automated testing, and production-grade code delivery.
  • Experience deploying and operating data, AI, or ML workloads in AWS and GCP environments including storage, compute, IAM, logging, and monitoring.
  • Experience with ML engineering concepts such as feature pipelines, model training workflows, batch scoring, inference services, and drift detection.
  • Ability to lead implementation work, guide junior engineers, communicate tradeoffs, and manage multiple deliverables with limited direction.
  • Experience in insurance, employee benefits, pricing, underwriting, or policy lifecycle analytics (preferred).
  • Experience with generative AI/agentic AI patterns, orchestration tools like Airflow, CI/CD, containers, and infrastructure-as-code (preferred).
