Head of Applied AI
Latent, San Francisco
The role
We are hiring a Head of Applied AI to lead the team building the AI capabilities that power Latent’s products. You will own our approach to production AI across complex clinical and operational workflows, including prior authorization, payor communication, clinical review, and care gap analysis, etc.
You will lead the development of Latent Agent, our agent harness, as well as the evaluation systems and shared foundations that help teams build reliable clinical AI products. You will decide when to use off-the-shelf models, invest in post-training, or take on research bets where our data and health-system relationships create an advantage.
This is both a technical and organizational leadership role. You will set strategy, guide architecture, build and develop the team, and work closely with Product, Engineering, and business leaders to turn technical capabilities into measurable outcomes for health systems and patients.
