  • Evaluate, select, and guide the fine-tuning of foundation models.
  • Establish model evaluation frameworks that prioritize safety, accuracy, and clinical relevance.
  • Collaborate closely with product managers, designers, clinicians, and data stakeholders to understand care delivery workflows and translate them into well-scoped, high-impact AI features.
  • Ensure all AI systems are designed, deployed, and monitored in compliance with HIPAA and Humana's Responsible AI standards, including participation in AIRB and Responsible AI Council review processes where applicable.
