About the role
Your Mission
What you’ll do
- Develop, train, evaluate, and deploy machine learning models using multimodal healthcare data (e.g., blood biomarkers, images, medical records).
- Partner with data scientists and domain experts to translate clinically informed cohorts, labels, and features into ML-ready representations.
- Build and own end-to-end ML workflows, including literature review/prototyping, feature generation, training/validation, inference, experiment tracking and reproducibility, deployment, and monitoring/drift detection.
- Design modeling approaches for longitudinal healthcare data, capturing temporal patterns and handling evolving data distributions.
- Define evaluation frameworks that prioritize robustness, calibration, interpretability, and stability across cohorts and time.
- Contribute to best practices around responsible ML in healthcare, including documentation, auditability, and collaboration with clinical stakeholders.
- Support experimentation while maintaining production-quality engineering standards.
Who you are
Key Requirements
- 3+ years of experience building and deploying machine learning systems in production.
- Strong proficiency in Python and ML frameworks, such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, and scikit-learn (PyTorch is preferred).
- Experience with the full model lifecycle: training, evaluation, deployment, and monitoring.
- Familiarity with multimodal and/or longitudinal/time-series data (tabular biomarkers, imaging-derived features, events over time, etc.).
- Solid understanding of feature engineering, model validation, error analysis, and basic statistical thinking.
- Ability to collaborate effectively with data engineering and data scientists in shared data environments.
Nice-to-have
- Experience working with healthcare, biomedical, or other regulated data.
- Familiarity combining multiple different modalities (e.g., tabular + imaging features, signals + clinical records).
- Experience with self-supervised learning and the development of large-scale foundation models.
- Experience deploying models in cloud environments (AWS, Databricks, etc.).
- Exposure to model interpretability techniques and monitoring strategies (drift, performance degradation, data quality checks).
- Experience working in PHI-sensitive and compliance-driven environments.
