Role overview
Resolve to Save Lives is looking for an Applied AI/LLM Engineer Consultant to support our innovative team, focusing on the exciting field of Large Language Models (LLMs) in the context of Public Health. In this role, you will contribute to the design, fine-tuning, deployment, and evaluation of AI/ML systems based on pre-trained models (e.g., LLaMA, Mistral, GPT, Phi) that help ease the lives of healthcare workers and clinicians. You will work closely with back-end and mobile engineers to bring cutting-edge AI capabilities to life.
The ideal candidate will possess the expertise to leverage existing Large Language Models (LLMs) to train and evaluate models using program-specific clinical data (e.g., patient notes, SMS interactions, training materials or health worker feedback) and deploy within RTSL's digital health tools and global EHRs (e.g., Simple, BP Passport). Additionally, there is a strong likelihood of developing an open-source, locally runnable, adapted LLM to address cost and confidentiality concerns.
You'll be working at the intersection of cutting-edge AI and grassroots public health. This is an opportunity to shape the future of digital health tools that are open source, impactful, real-world solutions for some of the most underserved populations globally. Our primary use cases for LLMs are anticipated to include (not limited to):
- Generating patient summaries specifically tailored for healthcare workers.
- A chatbot for appointment scheduling.
- Develop a predictive model to enhance and automate existing workflows.
- Optimized worklists for frontline workers.
- On-the-job training and ready-reckoner tools for healthcare professionals.
What we're looking for
- Experience working in healthcare or public health settings
- Contributed to or maintained open-source AI/ML projects
- Familiarity with MLOps, including model serving, performance monitoring, and lifecycle management, particularly in low-bandwidth or edge environments
