About the Role
MiniMed is building a lean, high-leverage AI & Data Science team. We are looking for a Senior AI Engineer who builds AI capabilities hands-on and sets the standard the rest of the team builds to.
This is a builder’s role first. You will take AI/ML models and LLM-powered agents from a fast “proof of life” prototype through to a production deployment that holds up in a regulated environment. Roughly a fifth of your time goes to the force-multiplier work: reviewing and quality-gating other engineers’ designs, and establishing the reusable patterns that keep the architecture and the hard-won judgment in-house.
Responsibilities may include the following and other duties may be assigned.
Prototype fast. Demonstrate “proof of life” for AI/ML models, agents, and tools against real MiniMed business problems, working from the business’s actual data and workflows rather than a sanitized sandbox.
Take it to production and drive adoption. Build, evaluate, and deploy on the MIA stack (Databricks, LangGraph/LangSmith, enterprise agent platforms), applying evaluation-driven development, guardrails, and deployment patterns so what ships is reliable, auditable, and maintainable. You own the capability from prototype through initial production release and its first monitoring cycle - measured by real adoption and business value, not just a stable deployment - then hand off to Model Operations for steady-state run.
Integrate into the enterprise environment. Wire agents and models into the surrounding systems - APIs, identity and access (SSO/SAML/OAuth), systems of record such as Salesforce and SAP, and enterprise data pipelines - so capabilities work against real, messy production systems rather than in isolation.
Set the technical standard. Establish reusable patterns for agent design, tool-calling, retrieval, and evaluation harnesses; review and quality-gate the work of other engineers on the team so the bar holds without a manager in the loop.
Feed learnings back to the platform. Turn what you learn in the field into improvements to the MIA platform, shared tooling, and reusable-pattern roadmap, so each deployment makes the next one faster.
Self-direct against outcomes. Partner with the Product Manager, AI & Data Science to choose what to build and when to stop, without needing the problem pre-decomposed for you.
Build for a regulated environment. Uphold the safety, privacy, and compliance requirements of a medical-device context, including auditability and human-in-the-loop where required.
Required Knowledge and Experience:
Requires a Bachelor's degree and minimum of 4 years of relevant experience, or advanced degree with a minimum of 2 years relevant experience.
Nice to Have
- Demonstrated delivery of LLM-powered systems or ML models to production - not prototypes, evaluations, or internal demos alone.
- Strong system design skills and end-to-end ownership from prototype through production deployment.
- Experience technically leading or directing other engineers, including reviewing their work.
- Strong stakeholder-facing communication - able to scope ambiguous problems with business partners and explain technical trade-offs (latency, cost, model risk) to non-technical leaders.
- Hands-on with Databricks, LangGraph, LangSmith, vector databases, and managed RAG/retrieval.
- Forward-deployed or embedded engineering experience - building AI systems from inside the business’s real data, workflows, and constraints.
- Experience integrating AI or software systems into complex enterprise environments - APIs, identity/auth, systems of record (e.g., Salesforce, SAP), and data pipelines.
- Comfort operating within a formal MLOps discipline, including a defined handoff to a model operations function.
- Experience in a regulated industry (medical device, healthcare, financial services); familiarity with HIPAA, audit, and validation requirements.
