Profile

Description

The Cognitive/Machine Learning Lead leverages large sets of structured and unstructured data to develop tactical and strategic insights. The Cognitive/Machine Learning Lead works on problems of diverse scope and complexity ranging from moderate to substantial.

Responsibilities

You will have the opportunity to work on challenging NLP projects with the goal to improve the everyday life of our members. As Lead, you may direct a small team developing NLP applications. You will collaborate with data scientist, analyst, business and IT teams to design and implement NLP application services using Python, Azure services like CognitiveAI, and other open-source software available for handling unstructured and streaming data. You will be expected to lead by example, to develop plans, designs, code, and documentation, and perform code reviews, testing, and debugging.

Some examples of how we add capabilities to Humana data science work include:


Analyzing customer calls using NLP to extract features for use in Machine Learning and predictive models.
Performing OCR and NLP on images to match faxed medical records with patient authorizations to deliver more effective healthcare.
Using BERT based language embedding technologies to improve the performance of NLP models.
Deploying NLP models that analyze social worker, nurse, and physician notes to find evidence of social needs, to feed predictive models used to rank patients most likely to exhibit conditions like food insecurity.

Knowing this we work as a team to break apart the challenges inherent to our domain and work together to develop the best solution possible.
