AI Engineer III – Remote PST/CST. The AI Engineer III is a senior-level contributor responsible for designing, optimizing, and maintaining scalable AI infrastructure and GPU-accelerated model deployment environments. The ideal candidate will have deep experience with cloud-based ML systems, container orchestration, and data engineering in regulated clinical or bioinformatics settings. This role blends full-stack engineering with deep learning framework optimization and contributes to long-term AI platform strategy.

• Architect and optimize AI/ML systems for large-scale biomedical and omics applications using NVIDIA GPU frameworks.
• Lead the development of scalable pipelines, APIs, and services for AI model training and real-time inference in cloud and hybrid environments.
• Collaborate with cross-functional R&D and engineering teams to integrate AI models into clinical-grade software platforms.
• Implement CI/CD pipelines, Git Ops workflows, and model governance processes.
• Contribute to data lake and data mesh strategies to enable AI scalability.
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship to junior engineers and research scientists.
• Ensure AI infrastructure and applications meet data integrity, security, and compliance standards (HIPAA, CLIA).
• Other duties assigned.

• BS/MS in Computer Science, AI/ML, Software Engineering, or related field (PhD preferred for research-heavy environments).
• Deep understanding of GPU compute platforms (e.g., CUDA, cuDNN) and distributed training frameworks (e.g., Horovod, Ray).
• Knowledge of biological data systems, genomics standards (VCF, FASTQ), and biomedical workflows is preferred.
• Expert-level Python programming and strong experience with ML/DL libraries (PyTorch, Tensor Flow, XGBoost, Hugging Face).
• Strong knowledge of API development, cloud engineering (AWS/GCP), and MLOps tools (MLflow, Airflow, DVC).
• Proven experience with Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, and cloud orchestration.
• Relational and No
  
  SQL database expertise, data lake architecture (e.g., S3, Big Query, Snowflake).
• Experience with monitoring/observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana) and secure application deployment.
• Practical understanding of LLMs, generative models, and transformer architectures is a strong plus.
• Minimum 5+ years in AI/ML engineering, with emphasis on production deployment and GPU acceleration.
• At least 2 years of experience working in cloud-native environments and managing ML at scale.
• Prior experience in bioinformatics or life sciences environments strongly preferred.
• Demonstrated track record of building AI systems for regulated or mission-critical applications.
