Cross-functional Collaboration: Partner with Data Science and NLP teams to provide feedback on model performance and assist in the creation of "golden datasets" for model evaluation.
Compliance: Maintain strict adherence to HIPAA, data privacy, and security protocols regarding sensitive US patient data.
