Model Context Protocol (MCP) Developer
Location: Louisville, KY (Onsite)

Duration: Contract

Role Description
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is the standard mechanism for securely exposing domain data and business processes to AI agentic applications. MCP enables AI agents to query data, reason over context, and execute actions via governed, reusable, and low‑latency interfaces. To accelerate adoption across the Insurance portfolio, we are seeking a contracting partner to provide a specialized MCP acceleration team that will work directly with individual Insurance domains to design, build, and deliver domain‑owned MCP servers aligned to Enterprise MCP standards.

The objective of this engagement is to rapidly enable each domain to deliver a production‑ready v1.0 MCP server that can support Agent Assist use cases immediately, while being architected for future enterprise AI agent scenarios.

Scope of Services
The contracting partner will provide a cross‑functional team with technical delivery, MCP expertise, and light‑weight project management capabilities to operate as an accelerator for each participating Insurance domain. For each domain, the contractor will support a time‑boxed, two‑week engagement resulting in a functional MCP server that is transitioned to full ownership by the domain at completion.

Provide documentation, knowledge transfer, and handoff materials to enable ongoing domain ownership and evolution.

Domain and Contractor Responsibilities

Provide subject matter experts (SMEs) for data, APIs, and business processes.

Define and validate a prioritized list of:

Natural language questions the domain must answer

Business processes or actions that must be executed by AI agents
