Our partner is looking for a Data Scientist Principal, AI Development and Governance based in United States. This is a fully remote, full-time senior individual-contributor role focused on building trustworthy AI and machine learning capabilities for healthcare fraud, waste, and abuse detection.

The role combines hands-on machine learning, generative AI evaluation, model governance, and large-scale healthcare data analysis. You’ll work with complex claims data to develop findings that can be trusted by healthcare partners, investigators, and auditors. The position also requires the ability to assess emerging AI capabilities, determine where they can add value, and identify situations where they are not yet appropriate. You’ll collaborate with data scientists, BI developers, subject matter experts, partners, and auditors across a distributed U.S. team. This opportunity is well suited to an experienced data scientist who enjoys both technical delivery and setting rigorous standards for responsible AI.
