The senior software engineer will lead the development, implementation, and maintenance of computing and data infrastructure to support the deployment and monitoring of Machine Learning (ML) and generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools at UCSF Health. They will have principal responsibility for the Health IT Platform for Advanced Computing (HIPAC), a cloud infrastructure that supports the development and deployment of AI/ML tools, including large language models (LLMs) in the EHR. HIPAC currently supports extraction and standardization of data from the EHR, leveraging both SQL databases and APIs, but requires more sophisticated functionality, including non-traditional data, event-driven integration with the EHR, and enhanced real-time monitoring. The senior software engineer will take a lead role in collaborating with data scientists and engineers, solution architects, health informatics experts, and researchers to continually refine and advance this infrastructure, in addition to other complex AI/ML-based software applications. Additionally, the senior software engineer will serve as a technical mentor, guiding and supporting the professional development of other software and machine learning engineers on the team.

Competitive applicants for this position are software engineers with 5+ years of experience in developing and maintaining production-ready and scalable applications, with a focus on cloud-based, AI/ML systems. Proficiency in Python, SQL, common DevOps, and CI/CD is required.
