AI Research Engineer
About Amperos Health
Amperos Health is the leading provider of multi-modal RCM agents empowering healthcare clinics to collect more revenue, faster. Founded in 2023 and backed by Uncork, Neo, Nebular.vc and strategic angels from OpenAI, Stripe, and Twilio, we're on a mission to revamp the bridge between healthcare providers and payers. Our vision is to equip healthcare providers with an AI workforce that reduces administrative burden and accelerates revenue.
About the role
As an AI Engineer on our research team, you’ll work on our hardest research and AI infra problems. You’ll both help prototype new products and also work on turning prototypes into a high quality AI product. Hard problems include passing the healthcare billing Turing Test - would an insurance agent who is interacting with our AI or a healthcare biller who is reviewing the work of our AI think our AI is a human, and not an AI? More concretely, you will be working to improve our AI agent’s quality so it acts more human-like and collects more accurate and detailed results from insurance.
What you’ll do
Main focus is on improving models, LLM orchestration, prompt optimizations, evaluation framework, and AI infra
Enable agent/workflow product engineers
Own and raise the bar on AI quality
Own ultimate vision of end to end AI orchestration of modules
Work on hardest research problems (ie. Anti-AI)
Mainly a mix of ML, data science, and applied LLM work. Heavy Python.
Who we’re looking for
You like reading the latest LLM research papers
Deep experience in implementing and building AI agents
Eager to try out the latest releases (ie. o1, OpenAI voice mode, Claude Computer-Use) to see how it can be used in real-world healthcare billing applications
Worked with complex distributed systems with many async operations
Excited about pushing the boundaries of conversational AI technology
Can balance quick experimentation with systematic evaluation
Very high Python mastery
