Who We Are Looking For:

Every day, Cambia's Applied AI team is living our mission to make health care easier and lives better. We're seeking aSenior AI/ML Solutions Architectwho can think strategically about our growing AI portfolio while building the architectural foundation for how Cambia builds intelligent systems.

This is a unique technical leadership role that sits at the critical intersection of AI innovation and enterprise architecture. You'll be the bridge between our Applied AI team and Cambia's broader architecture practice, someone who can speak both languages fluently. You can collaborate with enterprise architects and platform engineers on scalability, security, and integration patterns, while also advocating for the unique requirements of building in non-deterministic environments: the observability frameworks, evaluation pipelines, monitoring strategies, and safety guardrails that AI systems demand.

We're looking for a hands-on architect, someone who builds consensus through prototypes and working code, not just PowerPoint. You'll roll up your sleeves to prototype solutions, validate technical approaches, and sometimes fill in the gaps to work through harder problems. You'll bring people together by showing what's possible and helping everyone understand the trade-offs. Reporting directly to the VP of Applied AI, you'll shape Cambia-wide standards for AI system development, influence AI/ML platform design, and architect solutions for complex partnerships, all while staying deeply connected to the technical reality of building production AI systems. If you're an experienced architect who understands both the promise and the practical challenges of production AI, who leads through collaboration and working solutions, and who wants to shape how a healthcare organization deploys intelligence at scale, we'd love to hear from you.
