ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY
Artera is seeking an Agentic AI Solutions Engineer who can bring deep technical insight to the discovery process, guide solution optimization, and craft a technical vision that wins over complex healthcare organizations. You won’t just be demoing features; you’ll be architecting agentic AI workflows to prove how Artera can solve the industry’s most persistent communication gaps.
In this role, you’ll serve as a key technical advisor—collaborating closely with Sales, Customer Experience, and Product teams to conduct deep technical discovery, design highly scalable enterprise architectures, and drive pre-sales deal strategy. You’ll help shape future-state customer workflows, dismantle complex integration challenges, and accelerate platform adoption by translating cutting-edge AI capabilities into real operational value for healthcare systems.

Responsibilities

  • Technical Architecture & Deal Strategy: Serve as the technical authority during the pre-sales cycle, defining the ideal future-state architecture and ensuring seamless technical alignment between prospect ecosystems and Artera’s platform.
  • Technical Discovery & Requirements Analysis: Conduct technical discovery sessions with prospects to evaluate system architecture, workflow needs, and data integration requirements.
  • Workflow Design & Agentic Solutions Architecture: Architect and propose optimized solutions for healthcare workflows using Artera’s AI suite, explaining how AI can safely reason, call tools, and interact with patients via voice and text.
  • Strategic Product Demonstrations: Lead compelling, value-driven demonstrations of the Artera platform for prospective clients. Go beyond feature-clicking to tell a cohesive story of how our core software and AI capabilities seamlessly orchestrate patient communication, collapse operational overhead, and improve patient access metrics.
  • Rapid Prototyping & Simulations: Leverage AI tooling to rapidly construct proof-of-concepts and workflow simulations to illustrate solutions for unique use cases during the sales cycle.
  • Technical Concept Communication: Translate complex AI/ML concepts (e.g., context windows, Retrieval-Augmented Generation, Model Context Protocol) into highly clear, value-driven information for clinical, operational, and executive C-suite stakeholders.
  • Technical Continuity & Deployment Handoff: Act as the technical guide during the transition from sales to service rollout. Provide consultative, high-level oversight to Artera’s post-sales delivery teams to guarantee the architectural integrity of the scoped AI workflows is preserved during implementation.
  • RFP/RFI & Security Review Leadership: Author definitive, technical responses to RFPs, RFIs, and security questionnaires, demonstrating how Artera satisfies both functional and compliance requirements.

Requirements

  • Technical Experience: 4+ years of relevant experience in solutions engineering or technical consulting, with a strong emphasis on working in a pre-sales capacity.
  • System Interoperability Acumen: Deep understanding of how systems communicate. You can comfortably read API documentation, map complex data fields, evaluate payloads/webhooks, and can pinpoint data dependencies during early-stage discovery.
  • AI & LLM Literacy: Firm grasp of Agentic AI paradigms, including token limits, prompt engineering, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) data pipelines, and the Model Context Protocol (MCP) framework.
  • Patient Access Domain Knowledge: Strong familiarity with healthcare operations. You understand the operational friction points surrounding centralized scheduling, patient intake/registration, and referral management, allowing you to speak the same language as healthcare operations leaders.
  • Problem-Solving & Agility: Exceptional analytical skills with a collaborative approach to whiteboarding, architecture modeling, and solving edge-case workflow gaps.

Bonus

  • AI Ecosystem Tooling: Hands-on experience interacting with LLMs systematically or leveraging automated dev tools (Claude Code/Co-Work, Gemini Gems, LangChain, etc.) to boost operational output.
  • Healthcare Interoperability: Experience with healthcare data exchanges and APIs, specifically HL7v2 and FHIR standards.
