Company Description The Children’s Tumor Foundation (CTF) is not a traditional research foundation. We operate as a patient-centered drug discovery engine for NF, a group of genetic conditions that cause tumors to grow on nerves affecting 1 in 2,000 individuals. We operate by accelerating the full continuum of scientific discovery, from basic research through translation to clinical trials and approved treatments — while empowering patients and building the financial infrastructure to support that journey. We catalyze progress by uniting academia, industry, regulators, and patient advocates around shared goals.

• Own the cloud and data foundation for the AI organization — shared runtime infrastructure, CI/CD patterns, and platform services used by AI teams. • Design and build a unified data access layer for agents and AI features so they can interact with a coherent interface rather than bespoke storage and retrieval systems in each product. • Define where shared AI data should live — agent memory, context stores, and shared service datasets — while partnering with product teams that have compliance or customer-specific reasons to retain specialized storage patterns. • Build and operate data ingestion and transformation pipelines that support AI workloads and analytics, including ETL and lakehouse-style patterns where needed. • Shape the technical execution of the organization’s data strategy, especially around scale, operability, cost, and long-term maintainability. • Partner with the AI Quality & Governance team to support privacy-sensitive data handling, PII-aware workflows, and safe access patterns for observability, memory, and trace data. • Provide platform patterns, reference architectures, and reusable services that help product teams migrate toward shared foundations instead of building fragmented point solutions. • Hire, mentor, and grow the team over time — the function may later mature into separate data-platform and cloud-platform groups.

• Own the AI evaluations and observability platform — tracing, logs, dashboards, quality signals, and operational feedback loops for prompts, model calls, tool use, and user outcomes. • Design and operationalize automated and human-in-the-loop evaluation strategies, integrating regression checks for quality, safety, latency, and cost into engineering and release processes. • Establish the standards that define production-ready AI across the organization — evaluation criteria, release gates, incident playbooks, and long-term quality metrics. • Build and operate AI guardrails and policy enforcement capabilities: content controls, PII detection and redaction, audit logging, and request- or workflow-level policy checks. • Translate emerging governance and risk expectations into working engineering systems and platform controls rather than static documentation. • Own platform-level SLOs and tier-two incident support for AI behavior issues, partnering with product teams who remain first-line owners for features they ship. • Act as an internal authority on AI quality and governance and participate in customer-facing conversations where product quality, safety, observability, or governance posture must be explained credibly. • Hire, mentor, and grow the team over time — the combined function may later evolve into separate Quality/Observability and Governance/Policy teams.

• Lead & Grow High-Performing Teams • Manage, mentor, and develop a team of software engineers and QA professionals, including developing other leads and senior engineers • Foster a culture of quality, collaboration, and continuous improvement • Support career growth through coaching, feedback, and development planning • Define hiring strategy and build out team capacity to meet long-term organizational goals • Drive Delivery & Technical Excellence • Own delivery of high-quality, scalable, and reliable software features and enhancements across multiple teams or workstreams • Contribute as a hands-on technical leader, providing deep guidance on design, code, and architecture when needed • Ensure strong engineering fundamentals across design, development, and operations • Champion Agile and test-driven development practices • Establish and enforce engineering standards, best practices, and technical quality bars across the team • Explore and advocate for the adoption of modern development tools, including AI-assisted technologies, to improve team productivity and software quality • Partner Across the Organization • Collaborate with Product Management, Design, and Operations to define and deliver roadmap priorities • Identify risks, propose trade-offs, and help balance speed, scope, and quality • Maintain transparent, proactive communication on progress, challenges, and outcomes • Influence technical and product direction with senior stakeholders and leadership • Shape the Future of Our Platform • Drive architectural decisions and long-term technical strategy • Advocate for modern engineering practices and tools • Help evolve our platform to deliver a seamless, next-generation learning experience • Lead technical evaluations and make build-vs-buy and major technology adoption decisions
