As the premier provider of Risk-Based Quality Management (RBQM) and Data Quality Oversight software, we harness advanced statistics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning to ensure the quality, accuracy, and integrity of clinical trial data, helping life sciences organisations bring safer, more effective treatments to patients faster.We’re an ambitious, fast-growing technology scale-up with a dynamic and diverse international team. Collaboration, flexibility, and continuous learning are part of our DNA, and we are guided by our values of Care, Passion, and Smart Disruption.\nThe Role\nThe AI Engineer will build the AI capabilities that sit on top of CluePoints’ new data layer: the platform that harmonizes data across clinical studies and applications and makes it available to CluePoints’ consumer applications. You will design, evaluate and ship AI solutions, such as metadata-driven variable harmonization and retrieval and knowledge-graph services, that are auditable, traceable and fit for a regulated clinical-trial environment.\nCluePoints has committed to building this data layer, so the role is an opportunity to shape the AI approach from the start. Success looks like AI components that measurably accelerate harmonization and whose outputs can be explained and defended in front of an auditor.\nWhat You'll Be Doing\nAI Solution Design & DeliveryDesign, build and ship AI solutions that support the data layer, including approaches that use metadata from data-capture solutions to help harmonize differing study variables.\nEvaluate and experiment with AI and retrieval options (LLMs, RAG, knowledge graphs) and recommend the approach best suited to each problem rather than defaulting to the newest tool.\nPrototype quickly against realistic study data, then take successful prototypes through to production-quality services.\nRetrieval & Knowledge GraphsDesign and implement RAG pipelines over study metadata, data dictionaries and variable definitions.\nApply knowledge-graph approaches to model relationships between studies, variables and concepts where they add value over conventional structures.\nExpose AI and retrieval capabilities through well-defined interfaces that CluePoints’ consumer applications can use.\nEvaluation, Auditability & ComplianceDefine evaluation methods and quality thresholds for AI outputs, such as proposed variable mappings, and measure them against reviewed examples.\nMake AI-supported outputs traceable and auditable, with versioned prompts, models and configurations and a clear record of what was generated and what a person approved.\nBuild proportionate human-review controls into AI-assisted harmonization workflows.\nWork with the architect to ensure AI components meet regulatory compliance expectations within the platform design.\nCollaboration & Engineering PracticeWork with the architect and data engineer on how AI components fit the data-layer architecture, harmonized snapshots and connectors.\nClarify the underlying problem and expected value with product stakeholders before building.\nWrite production-grade, tested and documented code, using AI-assisted and spec-driven development practices where they improve quality and speed.\nDocument design decisions and share knowledge so the capability does not depend on one person.\nMust Haves\nDemonstrated experience building and shipping AI solutions into production, not only prototypes.\nHands-on experience with RAG, including retrieval design, grounding and evaluation of results.\nWorking knowledge of knowledge graphs, including when they are and are not the right tool.\nStrong Python skills and solid software-engineering fundamentals (testing, code review, API design).\nExperience evaluating AI outputs systematically, using test sets, accuracy measures and regression checks.\nUnderstanding of regulatory compliance, auditability and traceability in platform and system design.\nComfort evolving quickly and experimenting with different technology capabilities, choosing solutions on evidence.\nAbility to work with data from multiple sources whose structures and variables differ.\nAbility to explain complex technical concepts clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders.\nNice To Haves\nExperience in clinical trials, life sciences or another regulated environment. Strong candidates from other sectors, such as fintech, will be considered.\nFamiliarity with Databricks and/or Snowflake and with Microsoft Azure.\nFamiliarity with spec-driven development frameworks such as BMAD, Superpowers or Spec Kit.\nExposure to clinical data standards (for example CDISC) or to metadata from electronic data-capture systems.\nExperience building structured AI workflows, such as prompt pipelines, agent orchestration or automated review.\nWhat We Offer\nThe chance to shape a new capability from the beginning: CluePoints has committed to building the data layer, and the AI approach is still to be defined.\nA genuinely hard problem with clear value: harmonizing data across studies so that CluePoints’ applications can build on it.\nFreedom to evaluate and experiment with technology options instead of inheriting a fixed solution.\nClose collaboration with a senior platform architect and data engineering colleagues.\nVisibility of how your work reaches customers through CluePoints’ applications and improves clinical-trial data quality.\nAn engineering environment that already uses modern AI coding tools in daily work.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5494,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Continuous learning"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Belgium","iso":"BE","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Clinical Trial Software"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-20T16:34:40Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":23,"reasons":["conf:1","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-21T05:46:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/cluepoints-ai-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/cluepoints-ai-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-21T06:48:15Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":9560,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-22T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":2345994},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=2345994"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fcluepoints-ai-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fcluepoints-ai-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fcluepoints-ai-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/cluepoints-ai-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fcluepoints-ai-engineer"}]}
