**Iterative Health — Applied AI Engineer (Forward Deployed AI Product Manager)** Iterative Health is a healthcare technology and services company powering the acceleration of clinical research to transform patient outcomes. With a performance-driven network of 100+ sites across the US, Europe, India, and Australia, we conduct research directly in the communities where care is delivered across gastrointestinal, hepatology, obesity, and cardiology. As a **Forward Deployed AI Product Manager**, you’ll work cross-functionally to identify, build, and deploy **AI-powered solutions** that transform how clinical research operations are executed. This is a highly hands-on role at the intersection of **product, engineering, and operations**—partnering closely with end users, rapidly prototyping, and deploying into production. --- ## Where You’ll Drive Impact - Embed within internal business teams to deeply understand workflows, decision-making, pain points, and opportunities for automation/augmentation - Translate complex operational challenges into well-defined AI solutions with measurable business outcomes - Design, prototype, and deploy AI-powered workflows and agentic systems using modern LLM platforms, orchestration frameworks, and internal data infrastructure - Own the full product lifecycle: discovery → design → implementation → testing → rollout → adoption → ongoing optimization - Establish evaluation frameworks to measure AI performance against operational, quality, and business outcomes - Partner with engineering, data, and security to meet standards for reliability, governance, compliance, and scalability - Work through operational and technical details to move solutions from proof-of-concept to production - Identify patterns to evolve one-off solutions into reusable platform capabilities - Bring field insights back to Product and Engineering to inform investment decisions and product strategy - Contribute to the evolution of Iterative Health’s AI operating model (tooling, evaluation, governance, development standards) - Travel occasionally as needed (estimated **< 15%**) --- ## You Might Thrive in This Role If - You enjoy operating in highly ambiguous environments and creating structure where none exists - You’re effective with executives, operators, engineers, and data scientists - You can quickly understand how people actually work and improve workflows through technology - You value rapid experimentation and iterative learning over lengthy planning cycles - You have strong judgment about where AI adds value vs. where traditional solutions fit better - You’re energized by building and deploying solutions that create immediate user impact - You’re comfortable moving between strategy, execution, and hands-on problem solving --- ## What You Bring to the Team - **4+ years** building and shipping software products, AI applications, technical solutions, or production systems - Hands-on experience with **large language models** (prompt engineering, agent design, RAG, evaluation frameworks, workflow automation) - Strong technical fluency with modern AI development workflows and tooling - Experience collaborating directly with end users to translate business problems into scalable solutions - Familiarity with programming languages such as **Python** and ability to work effectively with technical teams - Ability to navigate ambiguity, prioritize effectively, and drive outcomes with limited direction - Strong written and verbal communi
