Insurance domain experience is mandatory for this role. Key Responsibilities 1) AI Architecture & Solution Design (End-to-End) - Define the target-state AI/ML architecture for insurance use cases: underwriting decision support, risk scoring, claims triage, fraud detection, pricing optimization, customer/agent assist, and personalization. - Select and guide model approaches: predictive ML, LLMs/GenAI, NLP (and vision models where applicable), with clear tradeoffs and success metrics. - Design API-first AI services that integrate cleanly with microservices (REST/gRPC, event-driven triggers, idempotency, versioning). - Define patterns for feature pipelines, model serving, and governance that work across multiple pods and environments. 2) Model Engineering, MLOps & Deployment (Production Focus) - Lead model development lifecycle: training, evaluation, validation, release, monitoring, and periodic refresh. - Implement MLOps pipelines: automated model testing, monitoring, drift detection, model registries, approval workflows, and rollback strategies. - Define serving patterns (batch/real-time/streaming) and optimize for accuracy, latency, reliability, and cost. 3) Insurance Domain Alignment (Business + Actuarial + Underwriting) - Partner with product owners and translate requirements into AI-enabled components and measurable outcomes. - Ensure AI outputs comply with underwriting guidelines, rating practices, claims workflows, and internal governance. - Design human-in-the-loop controls where needed for regulated decisioning and operational safety. 4) Responsible AI, Security, Compliance & Risk - Establish responsible AI guardrails: explainability, fairness/bias mitigation, audit trails, traceability, and model documentation standards. - Ensure data privacy/security controls across the pipeline: PII handling, access controls, encryption, secrets management, and environment separation. - Collaborate with risk/compliance to meet insurance regulatory expectations for AI systems (governance, reproducibility, reviewability). 5) Platform Integration & Cross-Functional Leadership - Work closely with the Chief Architect, .NET architects, data architect, DevOps, and engineering pods to align AI services to platform standards. - Mentor data scientists/ML engineers; enforce engineering rigor (testing, reliability, monitoring, secure coding). - Drive POCs and technology evaluations, and productize successful capabilities into reusable platform services. 6) AI-Assisted Engineering Enablement (Claude Code, Cursor, MCP) - Use Claude Code and Cursor as first-class development accelerators (code generation, refactoring, test generation, documentation), with strong review and security guardrails. - Standardize patterns for tool usage across teams, including MCP-based workflows/integrations (where applicable), ensuring traceability and quality gates. - Define measurement for productivity and quality improvements (cycle time, rework, defect leakage, release stability). Must-Have Qualifications Insurance Domain (Mandatory) - Proven insurance industry experience is required (P&C preferred): underwriting, rating/pricing, claims triage, fraud, policy servicing, or insurance data/analytics. - Experience designing or integrating ML/AI solutions in insurance decisioning contexts (e.g., risk scoring, pricing, fraud, claims). Technical (Azure-first) - 4+ years hands-on AI/ML engineering and/or architecture experience; overall experience typically 12+ years. - Strong experience with Azure AI ecosystem, including one or more of: - Azure Machine Learning (training, registries, endpoints) - Azure OpenAI / LLM integration patterns - Azure AI Services (language, vision, etc.) - Strong MLOps experience: CI/CD for ML, model registries, monitoring, drift detection, evaluation, and controlled rollouts. - Experience building API-first services and deploying ML systems using Docker and Kubernetes (AKS preferred). Engineering & Collaboration - Strong communication skills: can explain model tradeoffs and risks to non-technical stakeholders and client executives. - Proven ability to lead cross-functional teams in fast-paced environments and ship production outcomes. - Strong P&C insurance experience (Auto/Home/Commercial) and familiarity with PAS workflows. - Experience with event streaming (Kafka/Event Hubs) and real-time inference/feature pipelines. - Experience with responsible AI frameworks and interpretable ML methods in regulated environments. - Azure certifications (Azure AI Engineer / Azure Solutions Architect).
