• Our AI roadmap is live and shipping. You’ll work on systems that go from training and evaluation to production monitoring: • Survey timing optimization model — an ML system that learns the optimal moment to send a survey for each client relationship, maximizing response rates and data quality • NLP pipeline for free-text feedback analysis — classifying, scoring, and extracting structured signals from open-ended survey responses across thousands of enterprise clients • Client health scoring — an aggregate model that combines survey results, response patterns, historical sentiment, and relationship signals into a single predictive score per account • Agentic AI architecture using LLM orchestration (Google Vertex AI / ADK) — multi-agent systems that reason over client data and surface proactive recommendations to account managers • RAG system over enterprise knowledge bases — grounding LLM outputs in verified client data and platform knowledge • MLOps infrastructure: model versioning, A/B testing, inference cost monitoring, drift detection, and production observability for agent loops
