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.


What’s in it for you?

  • Stock options
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision plans for you and your family
  • Wellness and commuter benefits
  • Competitive vacation policy
  • A culture that emphasizes learning, collaboration, and thoughtful engineering
  • Remote work flexibility
