Key Responsibilities
- Design, build, and operate AI-driven delivery pipelines that approach near-autonomous execution from requirements decomposition and story generation through code generation, testing, security scanning, and deployment orchestration.
- Maintain self-monitoring and self-healing systems that minimize the need for human intervention in production operations, while maintaining audit traceability required by HIPAA, SOC 2, and State’s Department of Insurance regulatory frameworks.
- Leverage AI agents and agentic workflows across the full software delivery lifecycle, including automated test generation and execution, AI-driven code review, anomaly detection, and auto-remediation.
- Continuously evaluate, adopt, and evolve AI toolchains and development methodologies, maintaining alignment with the AI Steering Committee's governance framework while exercising team-level autonomy in tool selection.
- Operate within CI/CD pipelines and collaborate with DevOps enablement teams for production deployment authority, maintaining clean separation of duties.
- Design and deliver AI-native solutions that replace traditional, UI-heavy interactions with intelligent, AI-enabled interfaces that are conversational, predictive, and adaptive.
- Architect cloud-native solutions on AWS, leveraging managed services and serverless patterns in alignment with the AWS Well-Architected Framework.
- Design secure integration solutions connecting cloud-based applications with vendor SaaS platforms and internal systems, ensuring data security, integrity, and compliance with HIPAA and SOC 2 requirements.
- Apply intelligent automation, predictive analytics, and AI-assisted workflows to improve operational efficiency, customer experience, and business decision-making within insurance domain systems.
- Own all system-specific cloud architectural elements within the team's domain, consuming shared platform services (networking, account management, edge infrastructure) provided by platform teams.
- Collaborate with platform teams (Infrastructure/Cloud, IT Operations) to consume and contribute to shared organizational services and standards.
- Engage with enablement teams (DevOps, QA) as knowledge resources and partners, respecting separation of duties while driving delivery velocity.
- Align with the enterprise AI Steering Committee on governance, strategy, and evolving AI standards.
- Consult with organizational AI consultants on tooling landscape evaluation and emerging capabilities.
- Work with product management, business stakeholders, and vendor representatives to translate business needs into intelligent, AI-native solutions.
- Provide transparent communication on delivery status, risks, and progress to stakeholders and leadership.
