  • Build AI-powered product features integrated into real insurance workflows.
  • Design and optimize LLM-based interactions across customer and internal systems.
  • Develop prompts, reasoning flows, and structured AI outputs for production use cases.
  • Evaluate model performance using real-world data, feedback loops, and experiments.
  • Improve reliability of AI outputs through guardrails, fallback logic, and validation layers.
  • Work closely with backend engineers to integrate AI capabilities into APIs and workflows.
  • Design and implement AI-driven automation features (chat, recommendations, decision support).
  • Analyze user behavior and model responses to continuously improve AI performance.
  • Collaborate with product, design, and engineering teams to ship end-to-end AI features.
  • Contribute to AI system design decisions focused on usability and real-world impact.
