Through our select network of Medicare and Medicaid Certified and Accredited providers, we are available 24/7 to meet the needs of our patients with compassion, expertise, and excellence.\nFor more than 30 years, we have been dedicated to improving lives by delivering the highest quality in-home care services. As a trusted market leader in value-based Home Health, Durable Medical Equipment, and Home Infusion Services, we proudly serve more than 2 million lives across the United States and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Our integrated care model is trusted by leading Managed Care Organizations (MCOs), physicians, and healthcare partners because of our commitment to exceptional patient outcomes and coordinated care.\nAt IHCS, our patients are at the heart of everything we do.

Every team member plays a vital role in fulfilling our mission of enhancing the quality of life for those we serve through Exceptional Customer Service, Proven Outcomes, and Seamless Care.\nIf you are passionate about making a meaningful impact, thrive in a collaborative environment, and are committed to excellence, we invite you to join our growing team. Together, we can continue transforming home healthcare while making a difference in the lives of our patients and the communities we serve.\nJoin IHCS where our patients are #1, and our people make the difference. Apply today!\nOffering a competitive compensation package, including but not limited to;\nMedical, Vision, Dental, Short- and Long-term insurance\n6+ Days of Holidays Pay\n17 days of PTO\nEmployer paid life insurance\n401K with employer contribution\nWellness program with reward incentives\nEmployee recognition and reward programs\nComprehensive paid training program\nWhat will you be doing:\nIHCS is investing heavily in building and maintaining an agentic digital workforce -- AI systems that augment the key internal roles involved in our core business of coordinated home care benefits management. We already have several early-stage implementations of these workforce agents in production and in development, and we're ready to scale that work into a coordinated, well-engineered program.\nThe Lead AI Engineer will own the design, implementation, and ongoing operation of these agentic systems. This is a player/coach role: you'll be hands-on building and shipping agents yourself, while also growing and leading a small engineering team as it scales. You'll bring senior software engineering judgment to a fast-evolving space, with the freedom to set technical direction on architecture and stack.\nWe're looking for someone who is highly curious and genuinely energized by solving complex business problems through automation and AI - not technology for its own sake, but real solutions that get into production and deliver measurable business value.\nWhat will you need to succeed:\n5+ years of professional software engineering experience delivering and maintaining production systems\n1+ years of hands-on experience building and deploying LLM-powered or agentic systems that are live in production - not proof-of-concept or research-only work\nExperience evaluating and benchmarking multiple third-party LLM providers/models against each other for a given use case (e.g., accuracy, cost, latency, consistency) not training or fine-tuning custom model\nExperience shaping and transforming data for optimal model consumption (e.g., OCR/text extraction, structured-to-markdown conversion, chunking, summarization) and managing context window constraints to produce consistent agent outputs\nStrong experience with AWS\nExperience working in a regulated industry (healthcare, financial services, insurance, or similar), including navigating data privacy and compliance considerations (e.g., PHI handling, BAAs) when integrating third-party LLM providers\nSome experience leading, mentoring, or setting direction for other engineers, whether in a formal management role or informally as a senior/staff-level contributor\nJoin our team as we strive for excellence through teamwork, where our patients are #1!\nIHCS is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4500,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["401k plan","Life insurance"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Health Care","Professional Services","Home Care Services"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-01T21:37:23Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":7,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.21,"p_room":0.35,"age_days":47,"expected_fill_days":4,"reasons":["conf:3","win:tail"],"computed_at":"2026-10-20T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/integrated-home-care-services-lead-ai-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/integrated-home-care-services-lead-ai-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-20T13:18:30Z","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":14768,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-21T00:00:00Z"}},"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":3781655},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=3781655"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fintegrated-home-care-services-lead-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%2Fintegrated-home-care-services-lead-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%2Fintegrated-home-care-services-lead-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/integrated-home-care-services-lead-ai-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fintegrated-home-care-services-lead-ai-engineer"}]}
