Senior AI/ML Engineer

Natera seeks a Senior AI/ML Engineer to design, build, and deploy Generative AI and Machine Learning platforms. You will design, build, and scale enterprise-grade AI/ML systems that power internal workflows (R&D, Lab Ops, Clinical Trials, Billing, Patient/Provider engagement) and external-facing AI/ML platforms.

Key Responsibilities:

Platform Development:

• Build foundational GenAI services including vector search, prompt tuning, agent orchestration, document extraction, memory services, model registries, and evaluation pipelines
• Create infrastructure for autonomous AI agents with collaboration and persistence capabilities
• Develop standardized APIs/SDKs for product teams to deploy generative AI workloads

Generative AI Enablement:

• Implement RAG at scale: ingestion pipelines, chunking/embedding policies, hybrid search, relevance/risk scoring, and feedback loops
• Build agent orchestration (single & multi-agent) with planning, tool routing, shared/persistent memory, and inter-agent communication
• Integrate secure tooling for agents to interact with internal systems

Infrastructure & Automation:

• Deploy cloud-native infrastructure using Kubernetes, MLflow, Terraform, and AWS services
• Implement observability tools like Datadog for monitoring AI outputs

Safety & Compliance:

• Embed compliance-by-design (HIPAA/CLIA/CAP/FDA/GDPR) protections
• Implement guardrails and bias detection for AI systems

Required Qualifications:

• 8+ years software/ML engineering; 5+ years at scale
• Production-grade ML/LLM systems on AWS (Python, TensorFlow/PyTorch, Spark)
• Proven experience with GenAI/LLMs: fine-tuning, RAG, prompt orchestration, agentic systems, safety guardrails
• Hands-on RAG experience with embeddings and vector databases
• Experience building agentic platforms (LangChain, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, Semantic Kernel)
• Strong distributed systems and cloud-native development knowledge
• Healthcare/biotech compliance engineering background preferred

Salary: $125,600 - $157,000 USD (Remote USA)
