Wolters Kluwer
Description
Job Posting
As Lead/Staff Full Stack Engineer, AI Platform & Agents, you will Build the GenAI platform that powers critical decisions in healthcare, legal, tax,
and compliance industries. Your work will directly shape the future of these
fields, enabling faster, safer, and more impactful decision-making at a global
scale.
About This Role Our team is building a central GenAI Platform to empower hundreds of product
teams across the organization with scalable capabilities for rapid development,
validation, and deployment of AI agents. We also drive the development of the
most impactful AI agents, ensuring faster delivery and greater impact across
multiple domains. With over 20 agents already launched and many more in
progress, our work accelerates innovation and improves outcomes in critical
industries.
You'll join a 100-engineer remote-first team within a larger organization that
combines the stability of an established company with the agility of a startup. In
this high-autonomy, high-impact role, you'll take problems from concept to
production, mentor less experienced engineers, and lead by example. You'll
design and ship full-stack systems, shape platform capabilities to empower
hundreds of product teams, and directly contribute to the development of the
most impactful AI agents.
Flagship Agent: UpToDate Expert AI In Health, we’re launching UpToDate Expert AI—a medical research and clinical
reasoning agent that transforms the world’s most widely used point-of-care
knowledge resource into a real-time medical assistant. Millions of physicians will rely on it to accelerate differential diagnosis, refine treatment decisions, and
reduce cognitive load—while maintaining rigorous safety, privacy, and guideline
fidelity. Improvements you ship (latency, reliability, hallucination reduction) will
translate directly into faster, higher-quality patient care at global scale.
Tech stack You don’t need to know all of these on day one, but you should be ready to learn
quickly.

What You’ll Do
- Design and implement full-stack applications, AI agents, and platform components that enable rapid GenAI agent development, validation, and deployment.

- Apply secure SDLC and privacy-by-design practices (threat modeling, least privilege).
- Collaborate with product, UX, and domain experts to deliver customer-focused solutions with measurable outcomes.
- Apply current LLM patterns (RAG, retrieval, routing, tool-use, evals) to deliver measurable customer value—faster, more reliable AI systems; reduced time-to-decision; improved trust/safety metrics; and lower cost per query.
- Lead by example and be heavily hands-on: drive architecture, mentor engineers, and take ownership of larger projects.
