You will own AI systems end-to-end, including models, prompts, retrieval, data, evaluations, and debugging. This role involves working across various AI applications such as an ambient scribe, a billing code recommender, medical search, and internal/external agents. Evaluation is a critical component, ensuring the trustworthiness of AI outputs.

Responsibilities

  • Build evaluation pipelines to determine AI readiness for deployment, including automated judges, regression suites, human review, and underlying datasets.
  • Diagnose and fix AI failure modes by adjusting prompts, retrieval, routing, models, or audio capture.
  • Develop production agents, including tool use, orchestration, guardrails, and recovery mechanisms, along with supporting infrastructure like search and vector storage.
  • Debug individual visits end-to-end, identify similar cases, quantify the problem, and verify fixes.
  • Manage model selection for different requests, implementing weighted routing, staged rollouts, and attribution for safe changes.
  • Own AI systems in production, responding to alerts, identifying causes of quality degradation, and deciding on fixes.
  • Translate vague clinical complaints into actionable problem statements, metrics, and plans.
  • Establish Tali's standards for applied AI and evaluation practices.

Requirements

  • 5+ years in production ML, applied AI, or research engineering with experience owning systems for real users.
  • Deep experience in evaluation, including building graders, regression suites, or judge pipelines.
  • Experience with agentic systems involving multiple models, tool calls, retrieval, and failure recovery.
  • Strong systems engineering skills, including backend services, data pipelines, and observability.
  • Data-centric approach to improving AI systems through data and feedback loops.
  • Proficiency in Python and modern ML tooling.
  • Ability to provide and receive candid feedback.
  • Skill in making engineering and business cases for complex solutions and owning the results.
