You’ll help design and deliver intelligent, user-centered software that supports our mission to transform how organizations manage health, benefits, and wellness through data and automation.

Requirements

• Some programming experience; comfort reading and writing Python is a plus
• Working familiarity with Git/GitHub, the command line, and Markdown
• Strong written communication and an eye for clear, organized documentation
• Detail-oriented and self-directed, comfortable working with ambiguity and willing to ask questions
• Genuine interest in AI, large language models, and how they get applied to real work

Nice To Haves

• Coursework or projects involving machine learning, NLP, or data analysis
• Genuine interest in health and wellness applications and a motivation to build technology that improves how care is delivered
• Awareness of healthcare data handling and privacy expectations (HIPAA); comfort following rules that keep sensitive data out of the wrong places

Responsibilities

• Prototype, test, and help evaluate AI / large language model features and agent workflows across the department's products and internal tools
• Assist with prompt design and the systematic evaluation of model output for quality, accuracy, and reliability
• Research AI tools, models, and techniques, and write up clear, actionable findings the team can act on
• Write small scripts and automations (commonly in Python) to streamline repetitive work
• Help maintain organized research, planning, and reference documentation so knowledge is shared across the team rather than siloed
• Support program management, including dashboards (React / Vite / Tailwind) and the department data program, with content, data-accuracy passes, and light frontend work
• Perform quality assurance and verification on AI-generated output, flagging anything that needs a human in the loop before it ships
• Use AI coding and productivity tools (such as Claude Code) responsibly for day-to-day problem-solving
