Veeva Systems is a mission-driven organization and pioneer in industry cloud, helping life sciences companies bring therapies to patients faster. As one of the fastest-growing SaaS companies in history, we surpassed $2B in revenue in our last fiscal year with extensive growth potential ahead. At the heart of Veeva are our values: Do the Right Thing, Customer Success, Employee Success, and Speed. We're not just any public company – we made history in 2021 by becoming a public benefit corporation (PBC), legally bound to balancing the interests of customers, employees, society, and investors. As a Work Anywhere company, we support your flexibility to work from home or in the office, so you can thrive in your ideal environment. Join us in transforming the life sciences industry, committed to making a positive impact on its customers, employees, and communities. The Role We are an AI team supporting the entire suite of link data products (e.g., Link Key People). Agility and quality are our operating principles in developing cutting-edge ML models. Our ML models are trained by data captured by a massive group of over 2000 subject-matter experts. ML models complement the curational pipeline and scale our solutions to different regions, languages, and therapeutic areas. Ultimately, we accelerate clinical trials and equitable care. We are proud that our work helps patients to get their most urgent care sooner. Your role will primarily involve developing LLM-based agents that are specialized in searching and browsing the web and extracting detailed information about Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) in the healthcare sector. You will craft an end-to-end human-in-the-loop pipeline to sift through a large array of unstructured medical documents—ranging from academic articles to clinical guidelines and meeting notes from therapeutic committees. These agents will be equipped to perform semantic searches and reasoning in order to provide precise answers to predefined queries concerning KOL-related data across various languages and disciplines. Leveraging AWS infrastructure, you will build, scale, and optimize agents and pipelines for information extraction and question-answering, ensuring they are production-ready and robust. Your focus will be on building highly scalable, efficient systems while collaborating with Data Engineers for seamless data pipelines and Data Scientists for model refinement. You will take ownership of the entire deployment process, ensuring the models are integrated into production environments with minimal latency and high performance. We invite you to work remotely from any area within the UK, Spain, or Portugal. However, it's a prerequisite that you already reside in this country and hold legal work authorization without needing an employer's support. If you plan to move to this country or live nearby, we may still consider your application if you're a superb fit for the role. In such scenarios, kindly supply an extra document that outlines your impending or current location, visa status, and the reasons that make you an excellent fit.
