POSITION SUMMARY
CVS Health is hiring a Lead Agentic AI Solutions Engineer to join the AI/ML Solutions Delivery organization and build enterprise-scale agentic AI and intelligent automation solutions. The Lead Agentic AI Solutions Engineer will serve as a full-stack AI engineer, designing, developing, and deploying production-ready applications that combine modern software engineering practices with generative AI and agentic frameworks. This role will lead the engineering and operationalization of enterprise-scale Agentic AI solutions supporting IT Operations, Cybersecurity, and intelligent automation use cases. The individual will architect, develop, and deploy end-to-end production agentic systems leveraging multi-agent architectures, prompt engineering, context engineering, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), GraphRAG, memory frameworks, evaluation pipelines, and AI guardrails. This role will leverage technologies including ServiceNow, Databricks, Google Vertex AI, Azure AI Foundry, Anthropic Claude, Python, APIs, and cloud-native services to deliver secure, scalable, and resilient solutions.
The Lead Agentic AI Solutions Engineer will own the end-to-end development lifecycle, spanning application architecture, backend services, AI orchestration, data integration, deployment, and operational support.
In addition to hands-on engineering responsibilities, this role will serve as a technical leader for assigned initiatives, providing architectural guidance, mentoring junior engineers, interns, and contractors, and helping establish engineering standards and best practices for enterprise AI delivery. Working closely with Architecture, Cybersecurity, Platform Engineering, Product, and Operations teams, this individual will help accelerate enterprise AI adoption while ensuring solutions meet CVS Health standards for security, governance, performance, reliability, and responsible AI practices.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Design, develop, and deploy production-grade agentic AI and intelligent automation solutions using enterprise platforms including ServiceNow, Databricks, Google Vertex AI, Azure AI Foundry, and Anthropic Claude.
- Deliver AI-powered capabilities supporting IT Operations and Cybersecurity use cases such as incident triage, alert correlation, workflow orchestration, operational decision support, and intelligent remediation.
- Design and implement end-to-end agentic AI systems utilizing multi-agent architectures, prompt engineering, context engineering, tool orchestration, memory frameworks, AI guardrails, and evaluation frameworks.
- Build and optimize Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), GraphRAG, vector search, document ingestion, and enterprise knowledge integration solutions to improve AI accuracy and decision-making.
- Lead the full solution lifecycle from architecture and prototyping through production deployment, monitoring, optimization, and continuous improvement while making informed technical tradeoff decisions.
- Implement secure-by-design architectures incorporating AI security controls, data privacy protections, prompt injection safeguards, resiliency patterns, failover mechanisms, and responsible AI practices.
- Collaborate with Architecture, Cybersecurity, Platform Engineering, Product, and Operations teams while providing technical mentorship to interns and contractor resources, and serving as a technical lead for assigned initiatives.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
- 7+ years developing software, AI/ML, intelligent automation, or full-stack applications with demonstrated ownership of complex enterprise solutions.
