  • Develop rigorous evaluation frameworks to measure documentation accuracy, completeness, and clinical soundness, including gold-standard datasets, human review, error-mode analysis, and ongoing quality monitoring.
  • Rapidly prototype and test approaches, using evaluation results to guide iteration and inform product direction.
  • Collaborate with product, engineering, and clinical stakeholders to translate exploratory findings into production-ready capabilities.
  • Contribute to responsible AI practices, including appropriate handling of sensitive healthcare data and attention to safety in clinical documentation.
