Position Summary
Reporting to the Chief Information Officer, the Applied AI Engineer will play a pivotal role in developing AI applications for use by the Columbia University Irving Medical Center (CUIMC) community, functioning in a fast-paced and agile way focusing on developing extremely innovative solutions to some of the most challenging problems of the organization.
This role will focus primarily on supporting our administrative, research, clinical and educational missions. This position involves developing applications and systems using AI technologies including applications of leveraging LLM APIs, automation/RPA, and machine learning algorithms to drive efficiencies and new capabilities across various University functions.
