We are looking for a Senior AI Engineer to join the Patient team in Paris.
The Patient domain sits at the heart of Doctolib's mission: ensuring everyone has better access to the care they need, receives
better care from health professionals, and can actively prevent health problems to improve their wellbeing.
You’ll design the search and recommendation engines behind our health companion, helping 100M patients across Europe instantly
navigate to the exact care they need while delivering trusted, curated insights at every step. The retrieval and recommendation
architecture you own will directly shape how relevant, fast, and trustworthy that experience is for every one of them.
and off-the-shelf components (vector search, semantic retrieval, LLM/managed rerankers).
measurable value to users and the business.
Before you read on: if you don't have the exact profile described below, but you feel this job description matches your skill
set, we still encourage you to apply.
1. Production deployment: ability to ship algorithms to production (ECS-based service on AWS)
2. Strong analytical mindset: result-oriented, patient-first approach
3. Significant experience as a Software or/and AI engineer shipping search or recommendation systems to production.
4. Hands-on experience building end-to-end retrieval: ranking, reranking pipelines and familiar with nDCG, MAP, Recall@k, MRR
5. AI-engineering proficiency: turning foundation models and off-the-shelf components into production systems: embeddings &
vector search, semantic retrieval, RAG, LLM-based or managed rerankers (e.g. Vertex AI). You can succeed without training a
model from scratch
6. Architecture-first approach: you build the system, baselines, evals, and feedback loops with standard tooling before reaching
for custom ML, and know when to partner with ML Engineers to break a ceiling
7. Evaluation & observability built into every stage (retrieval, ranker, reranker) — offline and online eval, A/B testing,
position-bias handling, monitoring
8. Production deployment — ability to ship reliable, low-latency services to production (hundreds-of-ms SLAs), with care for data
quality and long-term maintainability
