Role description
Position: Senior Data Scientist Location: Woodland Hill, CA - Onsite Duration: 6+ Months We are looking for Senior Data Scientist with 12 - 15 Years Skill 1 – 7+ Years Exp - AI agent architectures, LLMs, NLP developing A2A Protocols and Model Context Protocols (MCP) Skill 2 - 7+ Years Exp - LLMs and NLP models (e.g., medical BERT, BioGPT) Skill 3 - 7+ Years Exp - retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) Skill 4 – 7+ Years Exp - coding experience in Python, with proficiency in ML/NLP libraries Skill 5 - 7+ Years Exp - healthcare data standards like FHIR, HL7, ICD/CPT, X12 EDI formats. Skill 6 - 7+ Years Exp - AWS, Azure, or GCP including Kubernetes, Docker, and CI/CD We are hiring a Senior Data Scientist with deep expertise in AI agent architectures, LLMs, NLP, and hands-on development experience with A2A Protocols and Model Context Protocols (MCP). This role is integral in building interoperable, context-aware, and self-improving agents that interact across clinical, administrative, and benefits platforms. Key Responsibilities β€’ Design and implement Agent-to-Agent (A2A) protocols enabling autonomous collaboration, negotiation, and task delegation between specialized AI agents (e.g., ClaimsAgent, EligibilityAgent, ProviderMatchAgent). β€’ Architect and operationalize Model Context Protocol (MCP) pipelines that ensure persistent, memory-augmented, and contextually grounded LLM interactions across multi-turn healthcare use cases. β€’ Build intelligent multi-agent systems orchestrated by LLM-driven planning modules to streamline benefit processing, prior authorization, clinical summarization, and member engagement. β€’ Fine-tune and integrate domain-specific LLMs and NLP models (e.g., medical BERT, BioGPT) for complex document understanding, intent classification, and personalized plan recommendations. β€’ Develop retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems and structured context libraries to enable dynamic knowledge grounding across structured (FHIR/ICD-10) and unstructured sources (EHR notes, chat logs). β€’ Collaborate with engineers and data architects to build scalable agentic pipelines that are secure, explainable, and compliant with healthcare regulations (HIPAA, CMS, NCQA). β€’ Lead research and prototyping in memory-based agent systems, reinforcement learning with human feedback (RLHF), and context-aware task planning. β€’ Contribute to production deployment through robust MLOps pipelines for versioning, monitoring, and continuous model improvement. Required Qualifications β€’ Master’s or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Computational Linguistics, or a related field. β€’ 7+ years of experience in applied AI with a focus on LLMs, transformers, agent frameworks, or NLP in healthcare. β€’ Hands-on experience with Agent-to-Agent protocols, LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI, or similar multi-agent orchestration tools. β€’ Practical knowledge and implementation experience of Model Context Protocols (MCP) for long-lived conversational memory and modular agent interactions. β€’ Strong coding experience in Python, with proficiency in ML/NLP libraries like Hugging Face Transformers, PyTorch, LangChain, spaCy, etc. β€’ Familiarity with healthcare benefit systems, including plan structures, claims data, and eligibility rules. β€’ Experience with healthcare data standards like FHIR, HL7, ICD/CPT, X12 EDI formats. β€’ Cloud-native development experience on AWS, Azure, or GCP including Kubernetes, Docker, and CI/CD. Preferred Qualifications β€’ Deep understanding of MCP + VectorDB integration for dynamic agent memory and retrieval. β€’ Prior work on LLM-based agents in production systems or large-scale healthcare operations. β€’ Experience with voice AI, automated care navigation, or AI triage tools. β€’ Published research or patents in agent systems, LLM architectures, or contextual AI frameworks.
